Alfa Romeo
Berlina Da Corsa
The Alfa
Romeo Berlina Da Corsa which means 'Sedan From Race' in Italian is a concept
created by Seongjun Ko, a Transportation Design graduate from Hongik University
in South Korea.
The exterior
styling of the Berlina Da Corsa concept was strongly influenced by Alfa Romeo's
rich racing heritage and sporting models from the 60's and 70's like the GT
1300 Junior and the 1750 GTV. This influence is especially noticeable in the
design of the grille and headlight layout.
The Berlina
Da Corsa fulfills two roles thanks to its unique roof system. The rear section
of the roof can be raised or lowered depending on whether the rear seats are
occupied or not. This has the effect of turning the profile from a coupe to a
sedan and back again.
The end
result is that the driver can use the Berlina Da Corsa for dynamic and fast
driving on racing tracks, and when needed the concept can transport four adults
in style and comfort. The only downside to the design of the concept is the
fact the rear seat passengers have a very limited field of vision and the
passenger compartment would be very dark indeed.
