About Obscuro GT Ny Hoavin'ny Gt Retrovision
Obscuro dia fahitana momba ny fiovan'ny fiara manana milina voajanahary. Noho ny firongatry ny fiara-miaina amin'ny fiara herinaratra sy ny fanaovana fiara mitondra fiara ny tenany manokana dia heverina fa hisy fiovana lehibe eo amin'ny kolotsaina automotera. Azo antoka fa ho ohatra sasany momba ny fialam-boly amin'ny maha-izy ny fiara. Nefa ireo fiara ireo dia tsy ho lafo ary hanana endrika mahazatra kokoa ho an'ny famolavolana ho avy, amin'ny vanim-potoana ankehitriny, misy ny zavatra mitovy: ny kofehy lafo vidy, izay mbola ankasitrahana amin'ny vanim-potoana nomerika.

- Design Challenge
- The center of the project is the car itself. That's why Obscuro relied more on classic examples than modern ones. This philosophy was used to preserve the core idea of GT cars, namely the combination of luxury and high performance. Chrome elliments are sent to early motorsports, and the forms of these elements are referred to the silhouettes of those sports cars. The side lights are made small, since in the future cities will be much larger in area and much more illuminated. Therefore, the lights are transformed into exclusively silhouette forms, respectively, a neckline that encircles the front lights refers to cars of the past era, with bigger optics. Forming will rely more on strong and contrasting volumes than on lines, that have been popular for the last decade, but they are still present in the design to give a classic look from the future point of view. In addition, due to the number of electric vehicles, gasoline-powered cars will be rare, so to emphasize its heritage, the Obscuro front compartment has very elongated proportions, and in the rear view there are 3 large open pipes trimmed with chrome trim to emphasize again that this is not an electric car.
- Research
