    The article, Google translated from Dutch, claims that this concept (which was obviously not retained) for the FF was to be an SUV and was designed by Giugiaro:

    I don't believe that 1) this was to be an SUV and 2) that this was designed by Giugiaro.

    The high ride height just seems to be coincidental while the design looks very similar to the Pininfarina concept at the bottom right in the picture below - which itself is inspired by their 2008 Sintesi concept.

    151 is the project number - you can see it also on the licence plate of one of the sketches.

    Still looks like the Pininfarina concept at the back. What proof is there that it's from Giugiaro?
