The story of the Talbot-Lago T150C Coupé is a fascinating chapter in the golden age of the automobile. This French jewel produced between 1934 and 1948 is the iconic creation of Figoni and Falaschi, an emblem of style and innovation that marked a new era in automotive design, in total contrast to the boxy and mighty geometries of the cars of the 1920s.
In 1937, the T150C Coupé was unveiled at the Paris Motor Show, and its impact was immediate. The tapered body and flowing lines were paired with a powerful 140-horsepower 4-liter six-cylinder engine made it one of the fastest and most agile cars of its time. In addition to its stunning looks, the car boasted state-of-the-art technical features, such as a steel chassis and independent suspension, which contributed to a remarkably smooth and comfortable drive while maintaining exceptional stability.
