10 maddest concepts
01 SpadaConcept TS Codatronca
Ercole Spada (Ercole Spada), the founder and leader of the design studio SpadaConcept, apparently seen enough science fiction movie about Batman and other superheroes. Anyway, anything futuristic than SpadaConcept TS Codatronca from the hands of Ercole has not came out.
His record list includes both quite ordinary cars like the BMW 5-series (E34), BMW 7-series (E32), and Fiat Tipo, and handsome athletes Alfa Romeo TZ, Aston Martin DB4 GTZ and Lamborghini 3500 GTZ. Tired, perhaps, to build a sports car and ordinary passenger cars, pulled on originality.
To start SpadaConcept engineers enlisted the support of the company's UK Garage (one of the leaders in the production of chassis for racing cars), and set about creating a supercar. What should be in a supercar? Bright appearance - this time! Here questions arise - a concept similar to zapravsky betmenovoz the thread will not get lost. If this is not the "Batmobile" is really nothing less than ominous low-flying mouse. Dynamics - that's two. Codatronca it just chokes. There are three versions of the car: a 512-strong TS Sport Tourism and the 513-strong TSV Fast Sport Tourism.
And where is the third? Third - something very evil and powerful. For the longest name SpadaConcept Codatronca TSS Sport Super Tourism hiding 700 horsepower. This allows you to accelerate to "hundreds" of less than three seconds and maximum speed is 355 kilometers per hour. Not the highest figure of our time, but the adrenaline is provided to the driver. It keeps all this splendor on chassis Chevrolet Corvette.
Figures and data regarding SpadaConcept TS Codatronca, of course, very tempting, and looks at all is amazing. So a lot of customers should not be. But there is always one thing! The question of whether there will be "Batmobile" in mass production, remains open.

02 Honda NSX Spy Shots
This, according to some "experts" to create plausible sketches may next year be presented the new Honda NSX, the official premiere is expected at the Geneva Motor Show.
I must say that sketches really gone, though the point of "support" for such an optically extreme penalty was not at all. The media had only a few spy photos of the prototype, which was made in Germany, at testing at the Nurburgring.
Bow designers and "fotoshopschikam" for the successful design of the new NSX. Typical models of this type of elongated front, narrow slit headlights, powerful bumper with large air intakes and neat "ass" combines with "rasplyusnutym" body design and well-chosen lacquered where design skills further emphasize the air of the "triangle" and five-spoke wheels of exclusive design in 19-inch format.
As for the program "siloviki", there may be yet to shrug, as these things unknown remains confidential and will be provided to the public a few days before the official premiere and possible. Let's wait!

03 Lexus LF-A
Prototype sports car the Japanese have already shown, and not one - in 2005 at the auto exhibition halls adorned with the name of the concept of LFA, and the Auto Show in New York this year, Lexus introduced its "restyling" version - LF-A. But that's not all - it turns out, the first supercar from Lexus will also have a hybrid version!
This was on the big secret told everyone, "the chief of the Lexus" in the UK Steve Settle (Steve Settle). In his words, the hybrid power plant will be on LF-A as an option. Thus, the "purists" who believe in the electric motor and batteries superfluous sports car can do without them. But surely typed many times more willing to have the world's first 'green' supercar that will be a year or two.
After all, a hybrid installation LF-A which consumes less fuel, and in the places where it lives, the air will be much cleaner. Why not a perfect car? Maybe the fact that buying a supercar to enjoy the pleasure of driving, and not to protect the environment?
But a drive from LF-A should be all right. For example, the concept sample of 2007 under the hood hiding V10 power of 500 power. This sounds very promising, especially since he is strongly shifted to the center, and the weight distribution is close to the ideal. Again, the tire - size 265/35 R20 front and 305/30 R20 rear - must be nice to keep the car in the corner. And the speed of more than 320 kilometers per hour will not find any small Greenpeace. This is the machine !!! And the view from the pretty cars.

Please take a look at these photos. Impressive? This - new hope of Jaguar, which invested a huge amount of manpower and resources. Jaguar in recent years, failure to pursue a low sales, the company predicted the imminent ruin - and this car should be a symbol, a symbol of the once prestigious and luxurious brands.
Jaguar C-XF, while existing as a concept car, will be positioned as a four-door coupe coming to replace the current S-Class companies. Class four-door coupe has become extremely popular among car manufacturers, since Mercedes years ago brought the market enjoyed resounding success coupe CLS.
Technical specs are, unfortunately, unknown. More information about the Jaguar C-XF will be on January 7 at the start of the Detroit International Auto Show.

05 Toyota FT-HS
Today in a fashion incompatible things - sportiness and efficiency. But Toyota FT-HS has both these qualities.
Well, anyone anything sportivnenkogo? Toyota, like a real glutton, eats dogs on various compact, mid-size and even large family car now takes up the sport. Fans of fast and reliable machines - can wait to start the new coupe from Toyota, which will look something like the concept FT-HS.
After all, sport is now in vogue, so any manufacturer on every corner shouts of "pinpoint handling" of its new compact van with a diesel engine in volume 1, 6 liters. But shout - enough for successful sales "simple" models would be nice to have in its arsenal and a real sports car. Previously, he was a Toyota, and not one - Supra, MR2, the same Celica, at worst. Now we have nothing, but apparently, this omission will soon be rectified. For FT-HS - it is nothing like the prototype of the new generation Supra.
Design FT-HS - is a continuous J-Factor, operated by the company in recent years, but very angry too. The car looks aggressive and ultra-modern with either side. Immediately evident - not to be trifled with him.
Do not even dream of seeing such an interior as standard with the machine.
But cunning Toyota engineers decided not to create a Japanese Lotus, and have tried to consider other fashion trends - for example, ecology and economy. FT-HS - is not just a rear-wheel drive sports coupe with a 400 horsepower engine, already understands accelerate to "hundreds" of four with small seconds. It is also a hybrid - a vehicle propulsion system consisting of 3, 5-liter petrol V6 (292 hp) and an electric motor, which can deliver up to 197 hp (albeit for a very short time), borrowed from the Lexus GS 450h.
FT-HS - is, among other things, Targa: The roof of the car pulls back with the help of actuators.
FT-HS - not the smallest car: its length is 4, 32 meters. Batteries required electric motor, by the way, weigh pretty well, so the car is likely to be heavier than the others. But the creators of the FT-HS paid minuses into pluses, arranging them so as to achieve the ideal (50:50) weight distribution. And let's not forget that this is Toyota, which means that on such a car can safely go without training on the "24 Hours of Le Mans" - it will not break. Again, you have to stop off to refuel less often. Well, when the series?

Ford Indigo combines the technology of Ford and Indi in materials, design, aerodynamics and technology to create a new experience of the race. Izlegkogo vehicle body is made of carbon, the machine also has a v-shaped cylinder 12, volume 3, 0 liters torque - 1000 rpm, a fuel mechanism has a high efficiency. The design used advanced technology in hydraulics, electronics and brakes.

07 Citroen C-Metisse
It is difficult to find the car as original as the C-Metisse. But apart from the exterior, it boasts more speed and efficiency.
It seems that the French have a new national sport - the creation of extravagant cars. It would seem as interesting machines creates the world auto industry, but the French cars always stand apart. Especially when it comes to the concept car - that's where designers can roam vengeance and realize their most secret fantasies. And then, on showrooms, French companies are trying to find out whose stand most strongly impressed the visitors.
In Paris, the company will present concept car Citroen C-Metisse. Needless to say, the car looks very original and produces far more impressive than the previous concepts «C-Series." Huge wheels, extremely low roof, dashing body lines and hefty rear arches, underlined "the beat" line of glass - even supersedan Peugeot 908 RC, who will be nearby, next to him does not seem something supernatural.
Unusual pattern of opening doors, not only effectively, but also provides an easy landing.
Outside C-Metisse is the new revolution in the evolution sitroenovskoy style. Long (4, 74 m), wide (2 m) and low body (1, 24 m) has a good streamlined - the coefficient of Cd is some 0, 30. In this case, according to developers, landing in the C-Metisse is very convenient . Doors open up quite a tricky way: they go partly to the roof - and the fact it is a major obstacle when getting into extremely low car.
But if you enter the car easily, then get out of it is incredibly difficult. Not because it is inconvenient, but because they do not want to - so interesting interior. Besides, the ergonomics of the claim to the appropriate level. Landing - almost any, as the car is regulated by absolutely everything, from the steering wheel to the pedals. Another interesting detail - enshrined in the ceiling head. By the way, on the ceiling are engine start button and some devices - just like in a fighter plane! At the same time, thanks to the wheelbase of 3 meters, the back seat - in business class airliner.
Even hard to say at what angle C-Metisse looks interesting - inside or outside.
And yet this thing can still move with decent speed. C-Metisse accelerates to "hundreds" of 6, 2 seconds, and its speed "ceiling" of 250 km / h. But when the flow rate of the diesel fuel in the mixed mode is only 6, 5 liters! For Citroen C-Metisse - a hybrid. His front wheels through a six-step "automatic machine" turns the six-cylinder diesel engine capacity of 208 hp, and the drive for the rear wheels meet the two electric motors 20 hp with a torque of 400 Nm! With such impressive traction even marginal figures, and elasticity.
C-Metisse accelerates from 80 to 120 km / h in just 4 seconds 2. At the same time, the assurances of developers, emissions of harmful substances into the atmosphere is almost reduced to zero. And yet the car helps that all the "economy" does not weigh too much - the total mass of C-Metisse with batteries is 1400 kg. So, after looking closely to this concept, we can safely say that "came off" on it, not only designers, but also engineers.

08 Audi R-Zero
Three French designer Pierre-Oliver Wagner (Pierre-olivier Wagner Liviver Frank (Franck Levivier) and Merand Remy (Remi Marchand) presented the conceptual design of the electric Audi - R-Zero.
In spite of the "gentleman" warning of one of the leaders of the world automobile industry Japanese automaker Toyota on the companies plan the development direction of hybrid sports cars for the European market, students of the French International School of Design decided to pick up the gauntlet thrown down a monster glabalnogo automotive and under the patronage of the German Audi created its own version of the "electric" supersportkara .
Studios daring project called Audi R-Zero and besides, nothing concrete about this concept is not yet known. From vague hints can be understood that the main vehicle battery is located in the middle section of the body, they send electricity directly to the four electric motors, which are located in the wheels of the concept car.
Perhaps the most unique element in the design of Audi R-Zero is a horizontal tunnel running along the bottom of the body from the grille to the broad air intake, located in the rear bumper of the car. Purpose of the tunnel - cooling car batteries.

09 Mazda Nagare
Nagare, presented at the LA Auto Show. Translated from the Japanese name means "stream", symbolizing "the nature of the movement».
Following this concept, the designers wanted to make when looking at the stationary vehicle the impression that he is at great speed. And we can say that it is definitely succeeded.
Even inexperienced subtleties autodesign man looking at the front Nagare, would recognize the creation of a car company Mazda. Let's look at it from the side, it is likely to be at a loss to answer.
The elongated body of a hatchback with the organic flow lines allows to imagine what will make Mazda cars in fifteen years. This is truly a very interesting car looks and of each of its parts can argue for a long time.
Smooth shapes Mazda Nagare, in which there is nothing superfluous, embody the idea of the city car of the future. The wheels are located on the corners of the body for better handling and maneuverability.
Long doors opening up and forward, providing easy access to the interior of the vehicle. Interior Mazda Nagare intriguing interesting arrangement of seats. The driving position is located in the central front of the cabin, and behind the curved sofa can accommodate three passengers.
Upon recommendation of the Mazda, this advanced concept needs an advanced engine. For example, the hydrogen rotary engine.
While one can hardly say that this car will be on the roads, because the essence of all concepts - set the direction, to dream about the future of design.

10 Audi Quattroflex
And finally, the best science fiction ...
Concept cars have always been the most interesting developments of automotive COMPANIES. Audi Quattroflex - the work of a young Russian designer Alexey Bykov, who won the international competition "The best use of technology." By creating such works, especially designers forget about modern technological framework and certain laws of physics, thereby obtaining a bold new solutions. All of this add up to a car carrying two cylinders: front and rear. The wheels are made of the flexible element changes shape in accordance with various types of terrain, to increase the permeability. Most elements of the car, including the chair, made of flexible materials that can adjust to maximize the driver and passenger.
