Obscuro

Obscuro is vision of how cars with naturally aspirated engines would look like. Due to rising popularity of electric cars and will of making fully self driving car it is supposed to have a significant change in automotive culture. For sure will be some examples of car identity recreation. But these cars will be not so affordable and will have more classic as for future design, at the present age, the same thing exists: expensive chronometers, which are still appreciated in the digital era.

Geely Galaxy M9

Geely Galaxy M9 is a six seater flagship sport utility vehicle designed for modern families. The interior layout reinterprets the spatial logic of traditional Chinese three courtyard mansions, organizing the cabin into three rows, each with its own functional focus. The flexible cabin changes into eight distinct modes with a single tap. All seats include graphene heating and a four way adaptive lumbar support system. Water based paints, low emission interior materials and recyclable fabrics are used. Fuel consumption is 4.8 liters per 100 kilometers.

Aistaland GT7

Aistaland GT7 is a shooting brake coupe that combines a rational industrial form with L3 autonomous driving technology. A continuous blue light band shows the vehicle status from all angles, making the intelligent driving state visible to other road users. An active safety hood protects pedestrians through an adaptive lift mechanism. An 88 inch augmented reality head-up display is integrated into the dashboard curvature, keeping key information within the forward line of sight. LiDAR and DTOF cameras build a three dimensional model of the surroundings.
