Nissan concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo
Virtual supercar created to celebrate the 15th anniversary of
Gran Turismo®driving franchise
The full size concept model will be presented at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in the UK from 13:00 on Thursday 26th at the Nissan booth.
NISSAN CONCEPT 2020 Vision Gran Turismo began life as dream project for young Nissan designers who were given free rein to create the perfect supercar for their own Gran Turismo fantasy garage.
But the design from a team at Nissan Design Europe, based in London, England, was seen to have so much potential that it has benefited from input from an engineering team based in Japan.
Adapting design cues from current Nissan performance models, it was created from scratch using the latest digital design tools: the first – and to date only – physical representation of the car is the actual concept model.
NISSAN CONCEPT 2020 Vision Gran Turismo emerged from styling study among Nissan's global pool of young designers. Each team was answering a call from the makers of Gran Turismo 6, who have asked different manufacturers to each create visionary dream cars that represent the future of design to celebrate the game's 15th anniversary.
Nissan's 2+2 sports car adapts race-track technology – in particular air flow management – to a road car environment.
Working closely with skilled aerodynamic technicians and engineering teams in Japan to ensure the virtual car performs as realistically as possible, the design is partly shaped by emotion and partly by the wind.
Neat styling touches evoke aspects of Nissan performance models through the ages but present them in a futuristic way.
Although visitors to Goodwood Festival of Speed will see a physical interpretation of the car, the first people to `drive' it will be GT6 gamers. NISSAN CONCEPT 2020 Vision Gran Turismo, which will be available in ten different shades, will be available to download in July.
“This is in line with the Nissan philosophy," says Koji Nagano, Vice President, Nissan Design Europe. “In reality, not everyone would be able to own a car like NISSAN CONCEPT 2020 Vision Gran Turismo, but through Gran Turismo anyone can drive it and experience Nissan's promise of delivering innovation that excites."
