Even though there's not a lot we can tell you about
this design study in terms of what it is specifically, a simple guess would be
a hypercar, and not a very futuristic one at that either. In fact, strap just
about any badge on this thing, bring it out to Frankfurt next week and it could
pass for any sort of high-powered machine, be it all-electric, hybrid or
petrol-powered.
The first thing you notice when looking at it is the
expression of the front fascia, which according to designer Lee Rosario, looks
like an evil grin.
Out back, the design seems hunkered down, with a lot
of flared surfaces, giving you the impression the car is wearing a wide-body
kit. In "reality", that's the aesthetic the designer went with, in
order to make it look as aggressive as possible.
As for the forward sliding doors (that seem to be
missing a visible door handle), they're certainly interesting, similar in
concept to the doors on the Nio Eve Concept. Aside from maybe looking cool, in
reality, they would also allow the driver and passenger easy access in and out
of the cockpit - where we're assuming they would have a button of sorts to
automatically slide the doors back into place.
Speaking of the interior, it also doesn't appear to
be ultra-modern or futuristic, not that there's anything wrong with that. The
steering wheel is the only item that seems innovative, other than that, the
dashboard design reminds us of an Aston Martin.
