Gamers are certainly familiar with the game Gran Turismo which this time offers a new car, the Porsche Vision Gran Turismo. It is a Porsche and Polyphony Digital project that will be available in Grand Turismo 7 for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
With this virtual car, Porsche has demonstrated the creative power of its design team. Although designed only for the virtual world, it opens up exciting possibilities that are otherwise regimented in the design process for a production car.
“Projects like Porsche Vision Gran Turismo are especially valuable to us in the creative process. Further development of our clearly defined Porsche Design DNA and exchange with designers from other industries is an important part of our work, ”said Michael Mauer, Vice President of Porsche Style.
A car of purist design, with a centrally placed engine and an even width-to-height ratio, reveals Porsche’s passion for racing and a look into the car’s future. Low-mounted hood, pronounced wings, wide LED light strip at the back, are just some of the features of this concept. The car is designed without a door.
Access to the cabin is done by raising the roof, because the car is designed without a door. Inside, carbon and titanium were used, as well as vegan materials. The seats are positioned low, while in front of the driver is a curved display and racing steering wheel on which most of the controls are located.
The game will be released in early March 2022, so we will soon know more details about the performance of this virtual car. Maybe the concept becomes a reality.
