Today one can enjoy all the pleasures of open-top motoring without any of the disadvantages.
Forget about wind buffeting : here is the Venturi spider.
In the place of the conventional soft-top, the unique Venturi system offers a variety of possibilities. The Spider can be changed into a full convertible (with or without a rollbar) or into a semi convertible with removable half roof panel.
The electrically operated rollbar incorporating the glass rear window operates at the push of a button whilst the detachable panels fit into a purpose design ed compartment in the boot.

The two words which best define the Venturi 210-260 Convertible engine are flexibility and power. The V6 turbo has been developed entirely by Venturi.
Torque is absolutely astounding.
So is accelaration. Just compare the Venturi's performance (though that would be tough on the competition) to get a glimpse of what the Venturi engine builders have achieved.
With its catalytic converter, the engine retains its full power potential. Proof that respect for the environment need not reduce driving pleasure.
