🥠2006 Renault Altica Concept🥠 A 3-door shooting brake prototype with butterfly doors designed by Patrick Le Quément. The Altica featured a “Synthetic Jet,” an aerodynamic device consisting of a 2mm slot at the rear of the roof through which air was alternately sucked or blown to control the separation of air depending on the car’s speed. It was claimed to reduce the Altica’s Cd by up to 15%. • • Visit www.Story-Cars.com • • #storycars #conceptcar #conceptcars #prototype #renaultaltica #renaultconcept #renaultconceptcar #shootingbrake 📸/📚: Renault; Stéphane Foulon https://www.instagram.com/p/CnyCxNPseE5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🎛1978 Vauxhall J82 Sportshatch 🎛 Designed by Wayne Cherry as part of the GM J-Car program, the Sportshatch was proposed as a “hallo” model for the range to sell above the front-wheel-drive Cavalier 4-door saloon and 5-door hatch. The project did not proceed beyond this clay model. Note the trialing of different rear wheel arch treatments on the left and right sides. • • Visit www.Story-Cars.com • • #storycars #conceptcar #conceptcars #prototype #vauxhallj82 #vauxhall #vauxhallj82sportshatch #sporshatch #retrofuturism 📸/📚: Vauxhall https://www.instagram.com/p/Coq3q_sM3hc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🥶2008 TVR Sagaris II Prototype🥶 The Sagaris was designed by Graham Browne and Lee Hodgetts and powered by a 4.0 liter in-line 6-cylinder engine. The Sagaris II was to have some minor styling revisions and a new exhaust system. However, TVR had gone into a production hiatus because their production facility went into administration before the Sagaris II made it into production. • • Visit www.Story-Cars.com • • #storycars #conceptcar #conceptcars #prototype #TVR #tvrsagaris #tvrsagaris2 #tvrsagarisprototype #tvrsagarisii 📸/📚: TVR https://www.instagram.com/p/CoU10z0riMZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🐏1967 Rover P6BS V8 Prototype🐏 A project to make a mid-engined V8 sports car using the ex-Buick 3.5-liter alloy V8. Also, known as the Leyland Eight GE, David Bache headed the development team (he was also responsible for the first Range Rover), and the car went as far as having a projected US on sale date and price point ($5000). The V8 was offset to the right because the gearbox was in front of the engine, and this placement allowed the transaxle to run on the side of the engine, thus making the car lower. The P6BS was developed further into the P9, but British Leyland's management was concerned that it would take sales from the Jaguar E-type, so the project was shelved. • • Visit www.Story-Cars.com • • #storycars #conceptcar #conceptcars #prototype #leylandeightge #roverp6bs #roverv8 #davidbach 📸/📚: Rover https://www.instagram.com/p/CoArPTTJhME/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

💥1992 Schuppan 962CR Prototype💥 A project by Australian racecar driver Vern Schuppan to build a road-going hypercar based on the  Le Mans-winning Porsche 962 race car. A twin-turbo 600hp powered it water-cooled 3.3-litre Type-935 Porsche flat-6 similar to the engine that powered the 962. It was designed by Mike Simcoe (now General Motors' Vice President of Global Design) with a carbon fiber monocoque chassis built by Reynard Motorsport. Priced at $1.5M in 1994, it is among the most expensive vehicles ever sold new. Japanese investors provided funding, but the global economic recession of the early 1990s and the high cost of the car's construction meant that when the financing dried up, Schuppan was forced into bankruptcy. Including the prototype, six cars were built in all, but one was destroyed in a fire. • • Visit www.Story-Cars.com • • #storycars #conceptcar #conceptcars #prototype #porsche #962 #schuppan #962cr #schuppan962cr #mikesimcoe #vernschuppan 📸/📚: @bingo_international @bingo_japan https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnubop8pFLY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
