Pretty cool. Like the back, need to see more of the front, it’s interesting. And those doors are huge.
Didn’t Ital Design do this? Giugiaro sold Ital Design years ago and now has his own design firm. This version seems to have very little DNA connected to the original outside of having gullwing doors. https://www.motor1.com/news/570300/new-delorean-italdesign-august-debut/
Yes, Giugiaro did this one as well. No influence from the original stainless steel version. I think these days his son is running the show, but not sure how much dad has influenced the design.
i long for the simpler lines over the current crop of supercars. porsche 911 and tesla still look fresh.
I do apologize, the posts per page setup had that on the previous page and I missed it. Overall, I really like it. I wonder if the interior will have a flux capacitor option. All the best, Andrew.
It’s an EV. Surprise! The all-electric reimagining of Back to the Future's 4-wheeled costar resurrects an old DMC plan.
I don't mind that its an EV; but I will mind if the range is sub 300 miles.... (although I 'spose I need to get over that; my current DD Audi can't beat 250 the way I flog it......)
