Nissan GT-R (X) 2050 Concept, la GT-R du futur

Imagine the Nissan GT-R of 2050, a beautiful exercise in styling performed by design student JB Choi.

How will cars be in 2050? Difficult to answer such a question, the world changing at a rapid pace and manufacturers not establishing strategies for more than fifteen years.

Much like we did last year when imagining the car 30 years from now, JB Choi, a student at ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena, Calif., Came up with a concept foreshadowing the 2050 Nissan GT-R as a thesis. end of studies.

For many, the future of the automobile lies in electrification and autonomous driving. JB Choi wanted to create a physical connection between car and driver while he was in internship at the Nissan Design Center in La Jolla, California. A GT-R like a kind of exoskeleton.

See you in 2050!

This open-top sports car has a decidedly futuristic look with its 21-inch rims and an active spoiler for ideal aerodynamics at high speed. She also asks the pilot for a helmet and a special suit to drive her since he will put his feet in each wheel. So become one with the machine!

“I started my internship at Nissan in January and I worked on different projects for 2 months. I then worked on my concept from home because of COVID-19. I never imagined the Nissan team would take me under their wing and help me create my life-size model“explains JB Choi. So, designer delirium or faithful vision of the future? We will need a little patience to find out!
