Thrupp & Maberly, whose origins trace back to the eighteenth century, announced its return as a contemporary British coachbuilding atelier dedicated to creating highly bespoke motor cars for a discerning international clientele. Based in Coventry, England, the company combines traditional craftsmanship with modern engineering and contemporary design.
The atelier will specialize in ultra-low-volume coachbuilt automobiles, handcrafted interiors and private commissions, produced by a team of approximately 60 craftsmen and specialists.
Established through a partnership between Brendan O'Toole and Lars Carlstrom, Thrupp & Maberly brings together decades of specialist automotive craftsmanship with international industrial experience.
The company said it will not produce heritage replicas. Instead, it will create original contemporary motor cars that honor the traditions of British coachbuilding while embracing modern engineering, materials and technology.
Thrupp & Maberly is currently developing its inaugural commission under the internal name Project Mayfair. The program represents a contemporary interpretation of the British grand touring motor car, combining refined proportions, handcrafted coachwork, curated materials and highly limited production. The company plans to announced additional details this fall.
