The motor world is rapidly changing and we have already seen some great concepts that show how the future cars would look like. The concept uses advanced technology and there is a possibility that the makers can share DNA with real-world models.
The company has only recently revealed the electric endurance racer concept, the themes of the concept are likely to affect the models of the future. But, now, the company has built a full-scale model to show around the world, which shows its importance.
It’s not like Jaguar is the only brand to create a concept for Gran Turismo, several other manufactures have also designed cars including Bugatti, Maserati, and Peugeot. But, this concept is more significant, because, the firm has created a 3D model, with the help of its road car engineers and the finished design is displayed for the public. However, there is no confirmation for this concept being used for future production models.
According to the design director, Julian Thomson, their vehicles, whether developed for the road or race track share the same DNA. He said this when he was explaining why they brought the engineers from the SV production arm and Jaguar racing together to work on this concept. He also said that the car shows what can happen if the traditional boundaries that control the real-world car design are removed. It came after the Jaguar Gran Turismo Coupe, which is described by the current team as the starting point.
The car will go live to the users of the Sony PlayStation-based game next year. Its development has been influenced by the views of the users globally, done during virtual world testing through online videos and forums. The large numbers of gamers belong to the 25- to 35-year-old bracket, a group which the company considers very crucial for its future. This is the reason the company has made such an effort to create a perfect gaming race car, as the company claims. The designers developed four themes and then selected one design, created by a 27-year-old, who is part of the firm’s advanced design team for six years.
