Italian design studio and prototype-builder Fioravanti is showing a prototype coupe-convertible pick-up based on the new Fiat Grande Punto in Geneva, called the Skill.
This prototype features a metal folding hard-top roof and a fold-down tailgate. It's unlikely to make production however, being more an advert for Fioravanti's roof technology (the firm has developed folding roofs for manufacturers including Ferrari, such as the carbonfibre roof for the Superamerica).
While Fiat is known to be considering a convertible version of the new Punto, this is expected to have a traditional canvas hood rather than a metal folding hard-top.
