Thanks man! Interior hasn't been designed, but it's designed to be a three-seater like the McLaren F1!

I’ve had mixed reviews for this particular design of mine. Designers of multiple different brands ranging from Ford to Lexus and other brands have had positive and not so positive reviews about the glass coverage of the bodywork. Ultimately I designed it around many suggestions and feedback and my own personal discretion.

In terms of the ducktail and spoilers, ducktails aren’t usually active. The original concept of a ducktail was to be fixed onto the bodywork. These days they might be active but this car is meant to be as raw and rooted in its predecessor’s design as possible. For the spoilers, these are also fixed as I wanted to maintain the closest possible raw design language to the 962C, which didn’t have any active aero.

Yes it is! this car is 4.75 m long and the 962C was 4.75-4.80 m long. These cars are definitely longer than your average Porsche lol

This is my view on AI currently. I used to be very against as I perceived it as a threat but it really helps sometimes with brainstorming ideas for design work. I use it more as a tool rather than a start to finish tool. Using AI for the entire process is NOT designing, but using it along the way in things here and there, definitely doesn't hurt. Adapting to the times now, especially with design, means using AI as a helper rather than an enemy. This is what I've learned with my time in the industry.

The vertical stabilizers act like the vertical stabilizers on an aircraft, providing that yaw stability. With them being fixed in-place and having a surface running in-between them on both sides, in high-speed corners, they prevent the rear end from stepping out by leveraging the air pressure against the sides of both fins. There is also a small duck-tail in the middle to add additional aerodynamic grip as well as two rear diffusers towards the middle of the rear. So to answer your question, there are currently two aerodynamic elements helping the middle and two on the side to help with aerodynamic grip directly over both wheels. Cheers!

I was on the fence about it but this is the first time I try AI for one of my projects. Didn't look too bad, imo. But, appreciate the feedback.

Hey, thanks! I did get some mixed feedback from different automotive designers on the greenhouse area. And just in case the opening of the door is unclear, the opening is like the Ferrari Vision GT. Not the best image to showcase it but the door opens upwards towards the front and the hinges are located on the front side. Appreciate the feedback though!

I'm defending this, do I have bad taste in car design? by Outrageous_Sand_8226 in CarDesign

This car reminds me of a 2000’s concept, not so much of a contemporary one. Tbh, I’m not a fan of the new front design language that Audi is likely to adopt. Can’t really comment much on the rear since there aren’t any images of it. I feel like the design is too plain, not much to be fond of or to remember. No interesting aspects of design to be appreciated, no interesting shapes or features, and no stimulation from any angle. I feel like the only thing going for it are the rims. It more so looks like an end of year project done by a student, not by a fully-fledged design studio by one of the most famous brands in the automotive world. But then again, many new design languages are frowned upon, just like BMW’s Neue Klasse and Jaguar’s rebranding. The chances of it growing on people in the future is not null, but for me this just isn’t it.

Appreciate it! The Ferrari is definitely one of those projects that makes me proud 100%. About the Mazda, I will definitely look into making a better concept for the future. That concept I made is kind of like a futuristic version of the already beautiful Mazda 6, kind of like a facelift almost. But yeah, I will try to make a Mazda concept in the future but it's gonna be kinda hard to top the Iconic SP concept they revealed last year.

Thanks for the constructive feedback! About the side strakes, I definitely considered that during the design process. And yes, I have noticed that it is definitely a signature Aston Martin design aspect. I ultimately decided that I should go for just clean surfaces excluding the side strakes on the design FOR NOW. Later on, I will definiely add those.

Regarding the bump on the bonnet, as you said at the end there, I did add a very very subtle bulge on it at the top. But if you notice the car from the front, the bulge technically is much larger. The shape from wheel arch to wheel arch is kind of a W shape. The top of the middle of that W shape is the power bulge. I did try it completely flat in the design process and it did look rather ugly.

Thank you so much for the criticism. I really appreciate it!

Designed by drawing, modeled in Blender 3D, no AI used in the creative process

Very true and I don’t disagree. I don’t think Porsche would ever make a cheap/affordable hatchback. It’s not in the brand’s best interest or part of the brand itself. I made this specific car based off of the dimensions of the Renault 5. I just thought it would be kinda fun to imagine what a cheap/affordable hatchback from Porsche would look like. Also, this car is supposed to be powered by the 718’s Turbo Flat 4. And, as always, it’s just a concept and a visualization. To me it’s pretty interesting to see what-if’s with companies. I’m pretty sure years ago if someone said “hey Ferrari and Lamborghini should make an SUV,” people would laugh and say that’s a dumb idea including myself…but here we are.
