American hot-rod with the English spirit. The main volume of the car is like a torpedo, an evolution of Bentley design.
Designer: Valerio Vessella, Milan, Italy.
Scenario
In 2030,
lower-than-anticipated oil prices in the preceding
15 years will have led to a future quite similar to
life in the 1980s and 1990s. The economy will be
booming, and oil prices will have stabilized as the
economy pulls out of the Great Recessioncaused by
the financial crisis of 2008.
Lacking external
pressures, elected officials will not havepursued
changes in U.S. energy policy. The share of AFVs in the
fleet will be low, and inexpensive fuel will also have
made driving relavely inexpensive. This situation
will have induced more suburbanization.
The market
for suburban living will be thriving based on
demand from young families with money to spend on
freestanding houses and new cars. Climate
change will be happening, but the effects will be
localized. Policies to mitigate climate change will
have been adopted only by highly affected
states or cities with the most-committed populaces.
A reluctance to raise taxes will have left the
transportation sector severely underfunded. A few states
will have adopted modified mileagefee systems,
and a few big cities will have imposed congestion
charges. But overall, the condition of U.S. roads and
bridges will be getting worse, although the extent
of the decline will vary greatly. Technology will
substitute for some travel but not enough, and congestion
will have grown.
Sonoran Concept
In this scenario silver driver have their personal house in desert areas that are the new suburbs. They are easily connected to cities thanks to modular rails, where their Bentley is constantly recharged by a wireless charging system, powered by solar panels. Moreover magnetic sensors on the vehicle and on the guard-rail increase safety when they are in free ride.
Interior could be both sporty or gran turismo, like Bentley spirit. This is possible thanks to a single shape with two disposition of integrated seats. One like a race car and one like a chaise longue, with stretched legs position. This shape is moreover generated from the position of engine and battery pack, in the lower surface of the vehicle.
