2010 612 GTO Concept Ferrari Concept Cars By Sasha Selipanov

2010 Ferrari Concept Cars 612 GTO Concept
A pure conceptual study for a top-end Ferrari. The 2010 Ferrari 612 GTO concept cars is the work of Sasha Selipanov, an extremely talented, and also incredibly irate. Sasha Selipanov is automotive designer based in Berlin, Germany.
The 612 GTO concept is a proposal for the next generation 612 Scaglietti, but with a high-performance GTO twist and completely revised aesthetics.
Sasha calls himself 'the angry car designer' for some reason, and has no time for fools. Selipanov design proposal appears to borrow bits and pieces from certain supercars like the Aston Martin One-77 as well as Maranello’s own 458 Italia and the classic 250 GTO, mixed with some unique styling cues.
For the 612 GTO concept Sasha has used influences from the classic Ferrari 250 GTO - which is evident in the triple air intakes molded into the hood.

Type 12-2 Bugatti Concept Car By Racer x design Reuben Zammit

Here is concept car from the Racer x design which is based on top of a Bentley continental GT platform. Dubbed the Bugatti Type 12-2, the concept has been created as a 2+2 sports GT for the Bugatti brand. This Luxurious Bugatti offers ample luggage space and is a top end front engined rear wheel drive car, designed especially for those who love speed, comfort and style.
Designed as an example of a luxurious four seater GT, the type 12-2 is the artwork of Reuben Zammit. On the subject of performance, things get considerably more hypothetical. This being purely a design study (and not even a Bugatti-commissioned one) any power-train speculation should be taken with more than a few grains of salt.
Racer X's specified FR configuration seems to eliminate the Veyron's all-wheel drive, quad-turbo W-16 configuration. Meanwhile, the name "12-2" seems to hint at a 12-cylinder mill sleeping beneath the coupe's hood.
The Bugatti Veyron is certainly one of the vehicles that have invaded the luxury car segment and it seems that we may be seeing another design and model soon. Racer X has lifted the covers on a new concept vehicle they are calling the Bugatti Type 12-2 concept car which is highlighted by ample storage space and new practical designs.
The idea is to use a VW derived W12 engine with a twin turbo layout hence the name 12-2. Although not as extravagant as the W16 used in the Veyron, there would be enough power to propel the Type 12-2 to over 200 mph. every time it competed with 4 different demo cars in 2 different classes for bodystyling.

2010 Beachcomber MINI Concept Car At The NAIAS

The concept of a brand-new type of vehicle proudly presented by MINI at the North American International Auto Show (16–24 January 2010) in Detroit. MINI achieves all this by consistently expanding the model range and through the unconventional creativity of MINI design. Just a few months prior to the launch of the brand's fourth model announced for autumn 2010.
MINI designers were inspired by the new MINI crossover production model, which they enhanced beyond the realms of urban mobility to create the MINI Beachcomber Concept. In creating this concept car, they utilized the technical qualities of the production crossover model, and made adaptations to offer the ultimate expression of freedom. The result is a new open concept driving experience for all your senses, plus a greater degree of versatility than ever experienced before in a MINI. Unique, typical of MINI, and with a great role model from way back when.
With its robust structure and the drivetrain technology carried over from the Mini, this four-seater fun car became a great success particularly in the sunny regions of the USA and Australia. Production of the Mini Moke in Great Britain continued until 1968 with a production volume of some 14,500 units, following which production was continued in Australia and Portugal.

Even ALL4 all-wheel drive goes back to a role model from the past, to be precise a prototype Mini Moke fitted by Alec Issigonis with two engines in 1963. On this test car appropriately referred to as the 'Twini', the front and rear wheels were driven in each case by a four-cylinder from the Mini range of engines.Modern and up-to-date from A–Z, the MINI Beachcomber Concept offers a wide range of innovations for consistent driving pleasure in the 21st century. The outstanding know-how in automotive development of a premium car maker in the areas of design, drivetrain, safety and production technology brings together the undiluted character of the concept car with a wide range of solutions most convincing in practice.

Following the MINI Crossover Concept opening up fascinating new options through the further extension of the brand family, the potential of the MINI's modern drivetrain technology and its flexible space concept is now being used consistently to offer additional driving opportunities in a new dimension. Indeed, the MINI Beachcomber Concept offers a particularly emotional driving experience, demonstrating these qualities once again in that unique style so typical of the brand. Clear proof, therefore, that unconventional creativity still serves today to open up the door to brand-new vehicle concepts pointing into a future bound to offer even more fascinating renditions of that unique feeling so characteristic of MINI.

Type 57 Evoluzione Bugatti Concept Car By Edwin Conan

The idea is that this legendary designer resurgence with a motor model W16 derived from Veyron , with the difference that this run on hydrogen. This concept car, like the original Type 57, has a stretched bonnet, smooth curves and a split line which bisects the car down the middle. This Bugatti supercar design is the revival of the classic Type 57, with a touch of modern technology.
The Designer Edwin Conan brings us another retro inspired supercar: the Bugatti Type 57 Evoluzione concept. This amazing supercar is inspired from the original Bugatti Type 57, dating back from 1930s.
On the side we see an excellent comparison with his predecessors, on the same lines we note Type 57 Atlantic with the fall of the tail, the separation line that divides the car perfectly in the middle and the door design.
It is far from being a sports car and very close to being known as a luxurious and exclusive vehicle that has a long stretched out bonnet just like in the 1930’s. This design cue was one of the trademark styling elements of the Type 57 Atlantic.
The classical shape with a long, stretched bonnet and gently curving cabin evokes a sense of fluidity and movement. It doesn’t look particularly sporty or dynamic. It does however look extremely luxurious, expensive and exclusive.

2010 Renaissance Bugatti Concept Car by John Mark Vicente

The Bugatti Renaissance is a concept car created by Canadian designer John Mark Vicente. He is a graduate of the Communication Design program at the Emily Carr University. Look like it’s same with Bugatti Veyron Supercar, but it’s his proposal for next supercar from Bugatti. Come with Veyron, 16-cylinder, but it’s still concept car.
The Renaissance is a model based on the Bugatti Veyron, the vehicle that replaces it. Although running on the same platform as the Veyron, the exterior design of this concept Bugatti is far more aggressive, and overall…better.
At the front of the car, the grill has grown in size and the headlights have been redesigned, now resembling the ones on the Audi R8 and also it has a carbon fiber skirt that fits great. Above the cockpit we notice that the twin roof vents are now slightly larger.
At the back, there are two larger vents, redesigned tail lights and the Bugatti logo framed by a red line that goes all the way to the roof scoops. The car uses impressive 26 inch rims.
Released as the fastest and costliest car when it hit the market, the impressive Veyron was an absolute stunner. Equipped with an 8.0 litre W16 engine delivering an incredible 1001 horses, Veyron had a top speed of 408.5 kmph (253.8 mph). It catapulted from standstill to 100kmph in just 2.5 seconds and cost above 1.55 million U.S. dollars.

Madura Hybrid Lamborghini Concept Car by Slavche Tanevsky

The Lamborghini Madura concept car was imagined by Slavche Tanevsky, a student at the University of Applied Sciences in Munich, has created this futuristic Lamborghini design concept. It was created in partnership with Lamborghini and Audi designers for Lamborghini’s Raw Materials Project.
Slavche has designed a model with the classic, aggressive lines of a Lambo, but with a hybrid engine. This concept vehicle carries the name of an island in Indonesia, well known for its bull races.
Although it slightly resembles the Reventon and the Estoque, the overall design of this hybrid concept car is more aggressive and more focused. The front-mid placed hybrid drivetrain is “hidden” under the curvy hood. In the front side the Madura has huge air intakes and slim headlights, oriented in such a way to accentuate the cars’ width.
According to Tanevsky, "The Madura is a proposal for the first hybrid Lamborghini scheduled for 2016. Doing a car more efficient and more nature-friendly, doesn't mean it shouldn't be exciting, good-looking and fast. (But) in my opinion this new propulsion system should be represented on the looks of the car."
