Wings of Nike (WON) Concept Cars By Darko Nikolić Design
The
“Wings of Nike” (WON), while its lines may appear a bit abstract, the car was designed to offer
superior aerodynamics and down force at all speeds. A few of its most notable
design features are its adjustable front diffuser (allows for better engine cooling), wing-style side mirrors (offers extra down force at high speeds), and long wheel base (superior weight distribution).
Designer Darko Nikolic has created a
supercar concept dubbed the “Wings of Nike” (WON), representing triumph and ideal beauty in Greek mythology, which combines the blood rushing and sophisticated looks of 50s with seriousness of limousines of the ’30s. Capturing the sport heart in the sleek, stylish body of limousine, the
futuristic sport sedan flow the lines to connect parts, spreading almost individually, along the whole body for superior aerodynamics.

"Nike of Samothrace - ancient Greek statue - represents Goddess of victory and sea battle. Conveys a sense of action and triumph as well as portraying artful flowing drapery through its features which the Greeks considered ideal beauty", is the inspiration of the name.
The power engine of the
Wings of Nike (WON) Concept Cars By Darko Nikolić Design is a 7.3-liter V-12, generating a comfortable yet potent 750 bhp, delivered by four (all wheel drive) 22-inch dubs, and egged on by a 7-speed dual plate clutch transmission. The brakes are ceramic for superior stopping power, and the black and red exterior finish to symbolize its sporty character and fury of a
Formula One racecar, which further is enhanced by a chromed bumper, white circles on tires and doors opening backwards.

Depending on the engine and inner parts it enables the modification of the front diffuser (behind the mask) for easier airflow, without visible changes from outside. Sucked air will be enough to bring sufficient downforce for better control, and to cool the engine and ceramic breaks which is a necessity at high speeds. Employing carbon-fiber with aluminum sub-frames to strengthen the body, the supercar offers all-wheel drive for smoother drive at high speeds. Moving on 22-inch wheels with 111,2-inch wheelbase, the Wings of Nike (WON) Concept Cars By Darko Nikolić Design measures 186 x 85 x 515 inches (LWH) in dimensions.
