Mazda’s Vision
Coupe kept everyone impressed with its dynamic design, representing the next
chapter in the company’s KODO design language.
The bodywork conforms to the golden ratio of a
classic coupe design, with the cabin positioned toward the rear of the car
while the flowing, clean lines make the Vision Coupe look like it’s moving
forward when stationary.
Mazda purposely opted for an exterior design that’s
free of all non-essential elements while focusing on classic traits like the
prominent shoulder line and body sides that present linear transitions in
different lights and shadows.
The same atmosphere is present inside, where Mazda
used the traditional Japanese architectural concept of ma in order to make
passengers feel embraced and not confined. A big center console runs across the
length of the cabin and features a touch-sensitive surface next to the driver
for controlling the infotainment system while the dashboard adopts the same
minimalistic approach with the smaller Kai concept.
The Vision Coupe concept is the second big sports
design study after the RX Vision, which should indicate Mazda’s will to add a
new sports model to its range. Whether they pull the trigger however is
something that sadly has to wait for a later date.
