Automotive Design
“A   R A N G E   R O V E R   T H A T   S H O U T S”

Imagine a true supercar imagined for the prestigious British brand. With a dramatic transformation this vehicle can jump sand dunes, while in race mode the suspension plants the vehicle to the road for a true feeling of speed and a pure supercar driving experience.
P R O B L E M
When rising the vehicle up to off-road heights from supercar Lows, the arch gap becomes awkward and either too large or too small in high/low positions
 

S O L U T I O N
Looking at Nissan’s ‘LandGlider’ for inspiration, the best solution would be to use articulating wheel pods that pivot hydraulically from control arms attached to the carbon monocoque to control the arch gap

Range Rover Design Language
Styling and design features evolve the Range Rover design language onto a completely different platform. Traditional Range Rover, high bonnet graphic is realised without negative effects on downforce by allowing front intakes to stream air over the steeply raked bonnet to create downforce over the front of the vehicle.
