The Icona Vulcano Titanium is the second iteration of the one-off Icona Vulcano, shown in 2013. The main difference of the new Vulcano is the all-titanium chassis, and the fact that it would use a modified version of the Chevrolet Corvette C6 ZR1's LS9 engine, tuned to 670HP, instead of the 950HP hybrid V12 engine, and can be upgraded to 1000HP as an option. As a result of this, the car can reach 354KM/H and accelerate faster than the original Vulcano, with 0-60 coming at 2.9 seconds. It was revealed prior to its showing at the 2015 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. The brand also claims that this is the world's first pure titanium-bodied car. The brand also has plans to sell an extremely limited number of Vulcanos, so this version might be the pre-production prototype.

Engine Technology: Chevrolet LS9 engine (6.2L supercharged V8)
Max Power: 670HP (1000HP as an optional upgrade)
Drivetrain: FR
Weight: 1595kg
Top Speed: 354KM/H (approx.)
