01 / THE STORY

History & context

The Peugeot 308 GT Castagna stands as a striking tribute to the theme of green, showcasing a unique approach to both design and sustainability. This one-off creation, unveiled by Carrozzeria Castagna Milano, is a bold homage to green hues, blending vibrant aesthetics with a high level of craftsmanship. The exterior of the Peugeot 308 GT Castagna is distinguished by its eye-catching two-tone paint job. The car’s primary color is a glossy forest green, which exudes a sense of elegance and depth. Surrounding the rear wheel arches, however, is a contrasting matte green, adding a contemporary twist and enhancing the car’s visual appeal. This distinctive color scheme not only highlights the vehicle’s curves but also pays homage to the green theme in a sophisticated manner. Inside, the attention to detail is equally impressive. Castagna Milano has extensively utilized leather throughout the cabin, reinforcing the vehicle’s luxurious feel. The interior is predominantly dressed in green suede, covering the ceiling, front pillars, and the top of the dashboard, creating a cohesive and immersive green environment. Complementing this are green upholstery panels, which, intriguingly, are made from carbon fiber, adding a modern and sporty touch to the overall design. Yet, green is not the only color present in the interior palette. The cabin also features gray suede accents paired with caramel-colored leather, providing a harmonious contrast and enhancing the visual richness of the space. This combination of materials and colors showcases Castagna Milano’s commitment to creating a bespoke and aesthetically pleasing environment. Under the hood, the Peugeot 308 GT Castagna is powered by a sophisticated plug-in hybrid powertrain. It combines a 180-horsepower gasoline engine with a 110-horsepower electric motor, delivering a combined total output of 225 horsepower. This powertrain reflects the car’s commitment to both performance and environmental responsibility. In recent years, Carrozzeria Castagna Milano has also introduced other one-off projects based on Peugeot models, including the 2008 and the 508 Gris. Each project reflects the company’s dedication to unique, custom designs and innovative approaches to automotive craftsmanship.
