Beautiful Design 3D concept cars

Car artworks are transformed by designers in two ways in a digital model. First is by airbrushing and painting it in Photoshop  and the other one is by making of it a 3D model in one of the specific programs(3Ds Max, Blender, Cinema 4D, Lightwave 3D, Maya etc). This article with beautiful 3D art  will be an interesting feature for the CG artists that work with the previously mentioned programs because they have in one place the inspirational work for their future car designs. For others, it’s an easy way to see cool 3D graphics, marvelous pictures which some of you would like on their desktop. Hold your horses, I’ll publish some 3D wallpapers soon. In the end of this short description, I’m welcoming you to gaze at these great pictures of concept cars.

Competition of Beautiful cars from the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show

 The cars that caught my eye at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show.

Jaguar C-X16 Concept

Jaguar’s new C-X16 concept car, wow.  Looks a little E-type shape don’t you think.  Meant to go on sale in late 2012 at £55,000.  It will have a 94bhp electric motor in the drivetrain and Jaguar claims this concept car can travel at up to 50mph on EV mode. It’s quick, 0-62mph takes 4.4sec, combined economy is quoted at 41mpg.  Can’t wait to see one in the flesh.  Want more on this car,

 

Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Super Trofeo Stradale

This monstrous special edition, the Super Trofeo Stradale. Basically a street legal version of the Gallardo Super Trofeo one-make series racer.  This car  combine’s 570hp with AWD, a sub-3,000 lb. curb weight and a track-ready rear spoiler to yield face-stretching performance. Only 150 will be made, so be quick.  Want more on this car,

 Aston Martin V12 Zagato

150 will be built.  It will be priced at approx. £300,000 (way too much in my opinion).  Want more on this car, read The Automotor Blog review.

Porsche 911

The most successful sportscar bar none is back.  It evolve’s again, codenamed 991, both the Carrera and Carrera S have more powerful, but less thirsty flat sixes mounted aft of the rear wheels, as well as a choice of 7-speed PDK or 7-speed manual transmissions.  Want more on this car,

Ferrari 458 Italia Spider

The Ferrari 458 Italia is beautiful, period.  This is especially true when you raise or lower the stylish, smoothly integrated folding hardtop, a production mid-engine Ferrari first.  Want more on this car,

Porsche 911 by TechArt GTStreet RS

The Porsche 911 GT2 RS is already an awesome bit of kit, but the serial Porsche tweakers at TechArt felt there was room for even more madness. The GTStreet RS is proof their assumption was correct. The aggressive body kit, stylish wheels and matte blue and black paint are dramatic departures from the stock GT2 RS, but the extra 90 horsepower (for a total of 710hp). That helps it hit 62 mph from a dead stop in 3.3 seconds and max out at 218 mph. Wow.  Want more on this car,

Mercedes-Benz  F-125! Concept

As the name implies, this car is a celebration of the company’s 125th anniversary, as well as a hint at what the boffins in Stuttgart are working on for the years to come, such as stereoscopic 3D instrument readouts and lithium-sulphur batteries.  This car claims to combine two fuel technologies in one vehicle,  Mercedes-Benz has packaged both a fuel cell and a plug-in hybrid system into the F-125! Concept.  Will it ever get built, only time will tell, but it looks and sounds a good concept.  Want more on this car, read what Car Magazine had to say about the car.

Bentley Continental GTC

With the new Bentley Continental GT on its way to production soon, it should surprise exactly no one that a new Continental GTC is hot on its heels, er, tailpipes. It features the same evolutionary styling and more powerful flex-fuel twin-turbo W12 as the hardtop, but with the added bonus of a folding fabric roof. Even though this model will inevitably be co-opted by the famous-for-being-famous crowd, we’ll still be proud to pine for it.  Want more on this car,

So there you have it, my run down of the best and most beautiful cars at this years Frankfurt Motor Show.

New Beautiful Design Jaguar C-X16: first details of sports car concept

 Jaguar has released details of its C-X16 concept, which previews a new production sports car.

The C-X16's technical highlight is its petrol-electric hybrid powertrain. The engine is a supercharged V6 producing 380PS (280kW) and 332lbft (450 Nm). The engine is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission which incorporates an electric drive motor drawing power from a 1.6kWh battery pack mounted behind the seats. Charged through a brake energy regeneration system, the batteries allow the motor to provide an additional 95PS (70kW) and 173lbft (235Nm) when activated by a 'push to pass' button on the steering wheel. The C-X16 is also able to travel at speeds of up to 50 mph under electric power alone and records CO2 emissions of 165 g/km in standard tests.

The C-X16 has a lightweight aluminium structure, which Jaguar already uses in its XJ and XK production cars.

Jaguar claims 0-62 mph acceleration in 4.4 seconds, a top speed of 186 mph and acceleration from 50-75 mph of 2.1 seconds.

At 4445 mm in length, the C-X16 is the smallest Jaguar since the XK120.

Adrian Hallmark, Global Brand Director, Jaguar Cars: "The C-X16 embodies the established Jaguar strengths of sensual design, animal-like agility and inspirational performance and combines these with attributes that set us on a course to create sustainable sports cars of the future."

Ian Callum, Director of Design, Jaguar Cars: "Jaguars have always been dramatically different. With the C-X16 we have moved the current award-winning design language on to the next generation, creating a car that is the very essence of future Jaguar performance."

The Ferrari F25 Superfast is a futuristic sportscar for the year 2025 inspired by the Futurism artistic movement.

The Ferrari F25 Superfast is a futuristic sportscar for the year 2025 inspired by the Futurism artistic movement. It was designed by IAAD graduates Diego Dellavalle and Riccardo Bordin.

Developed for the Ferrari World Design Contest 2011, the F25 Superfast takes inspiration from Futurism, an artistic and social movement started in Italy at the beginning of the 20th century.

Futurist works emphasize themes associated with concepts of the future, including speed and technology, as well as objects such as cars and airplanes.
Also, they feature a constant research of dynamism: the subject is never static. The F25 Superfast aimes at expressing a sensation of speed even when stationary.

 

The design is characterized by distinctive shapes defined by tight lines that underline the sense and tension of motion.

“The aim of our project was to set up a car developed for maximum performance, with the capability of maintaining its internal stability (performance, aerodynamics, cooling components) regardless of the external conditions, through a self-regulating processes.”

“This happens in living organisms by means of homeostasis, that is the continuous series of actions/reactions, which helps to maintain stability”

 “In this project we developed these concepts by integrating innovative technologies, which allow to revolutionize the style and that could provide huge benefits in terms of aerodynamics, resulting in unique shapes and hallmarks.

On this regard, the innovative materials used on the concept include:

    Automend: a self-repairing plastic, used on specific areas of the body, more subject to shocks.
    BetaGel: a material capable of dissipating shock energy, used for the bumpers and seats.
    Aerogel: a semitransparent substance derived from a gel in which the liquid component has been replaced with a gas used as a thermal insulator.

The F25 Superfast is powered by an electric powertrain equipped with four in-wheel motors, fed by a battery which is charged through a hydrogen turbine.
