The Rinspeed Yello Talbo is a Swiss sports car produced in association with Dieter Meier and Boris Blank of the eclectic electronic group Yello.

The car has nostalgic design clues, being based on a 1938 Talbot-Lago 150 SS by Figoni & Falaschi and has a 5.0 V8-engine with automatic box.[1]

The flowing lines of the Talbo owe their inspiration to designs of the late 1930s. The best of these carried the badge of Figoni et Falaschi.[2]
