01 / THE STORY

History & context

The Peugeot 508 Gris, a masterpiece crafted by Carrozzeria Castagna Milano, stands out with its distinctive dual-color design, reflecting a unique and personalized touch. The left side boasts the vibrant blue Agatha, named after the buyer, while the right side showcases the elegant white Paris. This symphony of colors extends to the bodywork, where fossil wood moldings and shock-resistant profiles in a special aluminum paint create a harmonious blend of style and durability.  Carrozzeria Castagna design team have added subtle aerodynamic enhancements, 19” wheels, and slim headlights, achieved by cleverly covering the original surfaces. Inside the Peugeot 508 Gris by Castagna, the attention to detail continues with a lavish patchwork of eight distinct materials for the upholstery. Shades of gray and brown reflections seamlessly merge with the deep black fabrics, creating an atmosphere of sophistication. The 2D print with a “wood effect” mirrors the colors of oak, used for the upper part of the seats and coverings above the belt line. Blue and light blue Alcantara inserts on panels and seats add a touch of luxury, complemented by large-caliber blue thread stitchings that accentuate every material junction. Fossil wood finds another purpose, adorning the luggage compartment and providing a natural and exquisite finish. The crowning glory lies on the dashboard, passenger side, where a precious inlay in colored woods serves as the final signature, reminiscent of the greeting card that inspired the creation of this exceptional car. The Peugeot 508 Gris by Carrozzeria Castagna Milano transcends traditional automotive design, offering a bespoke and visually stunning experience for those seeking a blend of artistry and performance. Equipped with a hybrid power supply and a 1.997 cc diesel engine, the 508 RXH foresees the possibility of marching with two or four-wheel drive. Despite the 200 HP of maximum power, the wagon emits only 108 g / km of CO2 and covers an average of 21.7 km with a liter of diesel.
