On one hand, an off road sedan? Who is that for? I struggle with the whole safari overland cosplay aesthetic.
On the other, nicest thing I’ve seen from them in a long time. Simple, clean, elegant overall forms and I can see through the fussy details to the next A6.
I hope that tailgate feature makes it to production in a sedan like this though!
I have a hard time getting excited or upset about concepts in this vein. It was never meant to be representative of a real vehicle, so…sure. I guess it’s fun to draw and make models of imaginary cars
The only thing I will particularly champion here, though, is the tailgate (not necessarily the faux open-air truck bed aspect of it, just the tailgate.) Tailgates are amazingly useful for all kinds of stuff. Put tailgates on all the cars, please and thank you.
… which was essentially a concept come to life in a 50 car production run. Maybe at some point there will be a business case for bigger manufacturers to batch produce high-fidelity concept cars.
