"Jeremy Clarkson hates electric cars as much as I do, so I let him try the one I built." The car in question is the Totem GT Electric, the spectacular remake (or restomod) of the Alfa Romeo Giulia GT. And the words are those of Riccardo Quaggio - founder of Totem Automobili - whom I met in Rome aboard his "creature" on the way back from the Sicilian test drive with the celebrated British journalist (here is the article written for The Times).

When you say the coincidences of life. Because seeing, driving and photographing on the streets of the Capital this "car" considered by many - yours truly in primis - a work of art, was an opportunity more unique than rare. Which does not stop at the beauty of the photo shoot signed by Igor Gentili, but gave us the opportunity to get to know up close an entrepreneurial adventure that has the flavor of an impossible dream that is turning into reality...

The story you will discover through this interview has fairy-tale traits light years away from the car industry of the 1920s, fueled by dynamics now impervious to the emotions (the real ones) of enthusiasts like Riccardo. But emotions, if channeled in the right world, have formidable generative power, and the Totem project is a striking demonstration of this.
