He was driving his Land Rover Defender on the hairpin bends in Abbiadori, in the Arzachena area, when he lost control and went off the road, crashing onto the road below.
Giorgetto Giugiaro, a renowned 86-year-old car designer and entrepreneur, was immediately found to be in serious condition. Emergency medical care was provided immediately: he was transported to the hospital aboard an Areus helicopter.
After initial tests at the John Paul II Hospital, a less worrying clinical picture emerged than expected: Giugiaro suffered numerous injuries but, despite the dynamics of the accident, his life is not in danger.
The car was towed away by the Arzachena firefighters.
