We haven’t heard much from GFG Style lately, but the
firm will use the Geneva Motor Show to introduce their new Kangaroo concept. Billed as an “electric
hyper-SUV,” the Kangaroo rides on an aluminum space frame platform which was
developed in collaboration with CH Auto. The concept’s lightweight structure is
covered by a carbon fiber body that appears more supercar than super SUV.
The company is keeping details under wraps, but the
teaser image reveals the concept will have an aggressive front fascia with a
prominent splitter and triangular air intakes. We can also see slender
headlights and angular body work.
One of the concept’s more defining features is its
unique greenhouse which has a domed appearance. The image also suggests there
are roof-mounted cameras or sensors as well as upward opening doors. GFG Style was coy on details, but
confirmed the Kangaroo is a two-seater that features four-wheel drive and
four-wheel steering. The company also said the concept will be able to
accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.5 seconds, before hitting a top
speed in excess of 250 km/h. There’s no word on the car’s range at
this point, but GFG Style suggested the concept will be able to travel
anywhere.
The concept was created by Fabrizio Giugiaro and
Giorgetto Giugiaro who are best known for their involvement in Italdesign
Giugiaro. While the duo are no longer part of that company, they hinted the
Kangaroo is an “extraordinary concept that, as in our tradition, will be completely
unveiled in Geneva and drivable after the show on any terrain.”
GFG Style isn’t exactly a household name, but the
company is probably best known for the Sibylla concept which was originally
introduced at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show.
