That GAC AHEV Concept looks very nice, but the interior seems to be empty

Guangzhou and Torino Design A-HEV hybrid concept
Posted on Tuesday 20 November 2007


China’s Guangzhou Auto took the wraps off a new hybrid concept at the Guangzhou Motor Show today, showcasing the carmaker’s hybrid and drive-by-wire technology. Guangzhou Auto is a Chinese joint-venture partner for Honda and Toyota and, for the latest concept vehicle, they called upon Italy’s Torino Design to develop the finished product.


Called the A-HEV, the new concept was created purely as a design study which means there are no plans for production. “Guangzhou’s brief was quite challenging, because they wanted a sporty and dynamic design, but not at all aggressive,” Torino Design boss Giuliano Biasio told Automotive News.

The car also had to have an aerodynamic look but not sacrifice available interior space. It uses a combination of metal body panels and transparent surfaces made of polycarbonate.

This is the first vehicle from Guangzhou to wear the carmaker’s new badge and is the first Torino developed vehicle for a Chinese firm other than Chery Auto.

Looks like it just has 2 doors? - Not sure you can call a car a coupe if it has more than 2 doors...I suppose the Rx-8 with its suicide doors, could be considered an exception though.

TheTycho.com is giving it fairly optimistic 75% chance it will actually be produced
