The long-awaited game Gran Turismo 7 has officially arrived on the market, bringing many exotic cars, including the Porsche Vision Gran Turismo. The game will be available to players on the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 4 Pro and PlayStation 5.
It took eight years for Gran Turismo 7 to hit the market, as the previous generation was produced back in 2013. PlayStation users will be delighted, and the first reactions say so, because the interest in this realistic simulation of car racing is huge.
With the virtual car, Porsche 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.
Low-set hood, pronounced wings, wide LED light strip at the back, are just some of the features of this concept. 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.
It is not known whether this virtual car will go into production in the future.
