Alfaromeo fastback

American designer jacob mcmurry have created extremely beautiful concept car alfa romeo fastback sedan 2017 concept. It’s inspired by the design of cars of ’30s and also by the famous venice carnival. The concept is an executive class sedan, with glass ceiling and side panels which can change their degree of transparency. Engine of this asymmetrical car work as bio-diesel.

Volvo sc90

This car right here is the sassiest little number this side of volvo, and it’s aiming to be the car that leads every pack. Designer nouphone j. Bansasine presents his vision for the 4 door coupe, taking the trend for these to be highly sought after, producing here a 4 door sportscar for the year 2015. What’s more? This car was made during an internship bansasine rolled with at the volvo monitoring and concept center (vmcc.) what’s that mean? It’s the real deal, honey!

Project M

The long awaited stile bertone mantide project m supercar made its debut yesterday at the shanghai autoshow. The showstopper designed by famed pininfarina designer jason castriota is a sleek, uber futuristic outlook on bespoke automotive engineering. Underneath the hood lies a corvette zr1 which if you have ever heard before, befittingly goes well with the aggressive sculpted front and rear.

The carbon fiber body enables the zr1 engine to push the relatively lightweight supercar 0-62mph in 3.2 seconds topping out at 217 mph. Much more information to be had at their site including a video. Com’on, you know you wanna hear what it sounds like.


Zenvo st1

Oh snap! It’s a danish super car. Somehow those words don’t go together in my head. When i think super car, i think japan, america, italy, germany, maybe even france and england – but denmark? It’s true, the zenvo st1 is a real danish supercar with excessive power; a v8 1,104 pony galloping engine to be exact. The turbocharged 7.0 liter 6 speed manual tranny pushes the zenvo st1 from 0-60 in just 3 seconds. For safety and legal reasons, the car is electronically limited to 232 mph.

A car that fast needs major brakes to stop it and this baby uses a set of ventilates 380 mm disc brakes and 6 piston calipers up front, 355 mm discs gripped by 6 piston calipers at the rear. Made entirely of a steel frame wrapped in a carbon fiber body, the styling is striking and contemporary. Personally i think it’s a little contrived (angry blowfish?) but a head turner for sure and pretty much unlike any other recognizable super car on the road.



Aston martin one-77

Marek reichmann and his design team have sculpted the one-77 so that it is still instantly recognisably an aston martin, but with hints of a new design language.

The significance of the one-77 name, which won’t be used for production cars, is that aston intends to build no more than 77 cars. The exact number is believed to have been chosen because of ceo ulrich bez’s belief in ‘lucky 7’. Car assembly is likely to be at gaydon, though the v12 engine will come from aston’s dedicated engine facility in cologne.

Aston wants to show the car to potential customers by the end of the year, with the potential for the first production cars to roll out of gaydon by the end of 2009.

Bmw gina

Bmw is really thinking outside the proverbial box with their latest concept design exercise. If the previously featured m1 concept did not strike your fancy, maybe this gina light visionary model will do the trick. The gina is a roadster concept wherein the use of sheet metal found on bodies of production vehicles has been replaced with a special, flexible, highly durable and extremely expansion-resistant fabric material that stretches across a metal structure.

Unlike traditional cars, various aspects of the bodies substructure are moveable and can be shifted by means of electro-hydraulic controls, changing the shape of the outer skin and overall design. One interesting example of this feature, becomes apparent in the headlight arrangement. When the headlights are not active they are hidden under the special fabric cover, as soon as the driver turns on the lights, the contour of the front ends changes revealing the headlights, looking a lot like a character out of the pixar movie “cars”.
