De Tomaso is officially revived, just in time for the brand’s 60th anniversary, and the car that brings it back to our lives is the rather stunning P72.

Revealed at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, the new De Tomaso P72 obviously takes inspiration from 1960s race cars, with the company saying that it was designed as a “modern-day classic”.

“A similar way the Pantera created a new category when it debuted in 1970, the P72 will create a new benchmark of its own,” said Ryan Berris, De Tomaso General Manager. “We have created a modern-day time machine that pays homage to an integral part of history and a car with its own provenance.”

The iconic Italian brand is being relaunched by the same people behind Apollo Automobili, the Ideal Team Ventures (ITV), which acquired the rights to De Tomaso back in 2014.

The new De Tomaso P72 was officially inspired by the never-materialized P70 prototype racer, a collaboration project between Alejandro de Tomaso and Carroll Shelby which dates back in 1964.

And if you feel captivated by the endless curves of the bodywork and the teardrop glasshouse, wait until you take a peek inside; the De Tomaso P72’s cabin looks like it’s been made out of jewels, with shiny polished copper and diamond pattern detailing found on everything from the round analogue gauges, to the center of the steering wheel and the gear lever for the manual transmission with the exposed linkage. Wait, what?

De Tomaso’s return is apparently going to be a very analogue one but the company preferred to keep all the technical details a secret for now. We do know however that the P72 is based on the same carbon monocoque chassis with the Apollo IE.

Given that the Apollo IE is using a Ferrari-sourced naturally aspirated V12, should we expect the same for the De Tomaso P72? The possibility of using a V8 is also quite strong, since this is De Tomaso we’re talking about, a brand that made its name by using American eight-cylinder powertrains in its sharply designed cars. For what is worth, the display car is powered by the V12 unit that powers the Apollo IE.

De Tomaso will build the P72 in just …72 examples, with prices starting from 750,000 euros ($845k in current exchange rates). The company has already started accepting “registrations of interest” from around the world, confirming that the P72 will be eventually homologated for markets like Europe, Middle East, Asia and North America.
