Moretti
EGS Concept
The
Moretti EGS Concept is a classically inspired sports car concept designed by
Coventry University Transport Design student Brian Males. The Moretti EGS
Concept was developed for a university project called “Emotions of Italy”.
The
concept was inspired by the 1954 Moretti Grand Sport, a compact lightweight
road/race car with a small displacement engine. However for the concept, Males
has ditched the internal combustion engine in favor of a fully electric
drivetrain.
The
styling of the Moretti EGS concept is extremely delicate and graceful, and the
retro design cues are found throughout the entire car. Including the chrome
door handles, window surrounds and headlight bezels. Even the wheels have a
simple, classic appearance.
The
long, curving front wheel arches and positioning of the headlights gives the
concept a unique appearance. Although at night I’m not entirely sure how
well-lit the road would be ahead, as the headlights seem to be pretty well
covered by the bodywork.
