Torino 380 concept
The Torino 380 concept
– a nod to the original high-performance Torino 380 W – was created by
Argentinian rendering artists Facundo Davila, Marcelo Romero, and Lucas Basile.
In keeping the sprit of the Torino alive, the goal
was to create a look unlike any other. Its long, sloped silhouette mimics the
original body, but comes packaged in contemporary sheetmetal. Its fascia does
the same with a quad headlight setup and a horizontal grille. The rear retains that minimalistic feel, but thrusts it into the modern era.
The entire package is unique, and lovably retro.
Though Davila didn't specify exactly what might
power this retro-tastic creation if it somehow did find its way into
production, one might assume it would be competitive with cars like the BMW 4
Series, Lexus RC, and others. The high-performance version would undoubtedly make an interesting M4 rival.
But for this team of designers, the goal was
"just to have fun and do what we really love, design cars." At the
end of the day, that love of design translated into something truly
spectacular.
