Exactly 90 years ago the first edition of what would become one of the most prestigious and traditional events in the world for historic vehicles was held on the shores of Lake Como. Since 1929 the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este has been exhibiting vintage cars and the most precious and original historical motorcycles. Since 2002, alongside these, concept cars, concept bikes and prototypes have also been introduced.

Adrian Morton, Design Director of MV Agusta/ CRC (Castiglioni Research Center) and responsible for the styling of the Superveloce 800 commented:

“Following on from a successful initial presentation at EICMA 2018 (alongside the Brutale 1000 awarded “Most Beautiful Bike of the Show”) it was a huge honour to receive an official request from the organisers of such an incredible unique event.
