2011 Mini Paceman Concept



2011 Mini Paceman Concept
A new design concept MINI will make its debut at the 2011 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS), to be held between January 10 and 23, 2011. The paceman MINI Concept is the first Sports Activity Coupe in the premium small market.
The MINI Concept paceman study establishes a new category of car MINI fundamental combine DNA – the dynamic capability, individual design – and give them a fresh twist with the help of technology and an innovative body concept. The paceman MINI MINI combines the classic concept, with the defining characteristics of the Mini Countryman and the style of a coupe. The result is a MINI with visual design tips “muscle car”, showing its dynamic ability from every angle.
Although no decision has been made on a production version in the future, paceman could form another building block in the development of the MINI brand.
“It’s exactly ten years since the new MINI was launched to the U.S. market so there is a symmetry pleased to introduce a totally new concept in Detroit,” said Jochen Goller, BMW MINI Director of UK Ltd. “After the release of Last year the Mini Countryman and the future releases of MINI Coupe and Roadster, the MINI Concept paceman again reveals not only the innovative spirit of adventure among its design team, but also the potential magnitude of the MINI brand as it grows and develops. ”

The MINI Concept MINI paceman keeps the family household frontal appearance, but adds a distinctive flavor. Large headlamps with chrome rims extend deeply into the front wings and, together with the hood contours clearly emphasize the paceman’s imposing nose. The radiator grille is essentially the same as the Cooper S Countryman restriction additional air intakes in the bumper to provide better ventilation of the brake and incorporating new fog lamps, deep in September
On the side of paceman MINI Concept features a new interpretation of the front wing and side indicator that catches the eye of the pillars down to the unique design 19-inch wheels front. This design element is robust and sturdy wheels complemented by some dark bow with matching side skirts, which emphasize the nature male sports paceman.
The shoulder line of the MINI family, which rises toward the rear of the MINI Concept paceman also hints at its sporting intentions. Less known is the treatment of glass and roof. As the waist up the roof flows into a large apartment C-pillar that appears to be transparent. The windows appear to wrap around the car like a bunch of glass roof with the “suspended” at the top and painted in a color, stunning contrast. This is known as the roof of the “helmet”. The coupe-style windows taper to the rear and the whole effect is of a dynamic wedge shape.
“In contrast to the more vertical design of the Mini Countryman, we have given the MINI Concept paceman a horizontal emphasis and increased the width of the car a little further to emphasize the powerful imagery of the study,” said Marcus Syring, head of MINI Exterior Design.

A new interpretation of the classic coupe design has given the paceman MINI Concept Coupé a distinctive tail that complements the athletic character of the car. New rear lights positioned at the outer edges of the broad, muscular rear wings underline the dominance of horizontal lines that run parallel to one another and emphasize the wide track rear axle.

Yet the echoes of the registration form of the recess front air intake in order to forge a link between the stylistic front and rear sections.
The MINI Concept paceman measures 4,110 mm long, 1789 mm wide and 1541 mm tall. MINI archetypal style, the paceman has front and rear too short to facilitate family kart driving responses.
Inside: a mixture of modern and luxurious character roles.
The interior of the MINI Concept paceman deliberately called the MINI design language unique and distinct, but still gives a refreshingly new. Behind male outside of the study is an elegant and sporty interior, which exudes superior quality and fashion design. The dashboard of the study MINI is defined by its distinctive concave shape and sports still functional impression it creates. The outputs of central air, central gearshift lever and Speedo rings external resource in a contrasting color, while large side air inlets underline the MINI even more.
The slim center console, which maximizes legroom for driver and front passenger, merges into the Central Railway pioneered by fellow MINI, creating a visual and functional link between the front and rear seats. This rail system unique and innovative U-profile runs along the axis of the carrier to the rear seat backrest. leather tones lend an expression of fascination for the luxury interior of the MINI paceman, while a new interpretation of familiar brand elliptical door and side trim extends along the length of the cabin, with emphasis on the B-pillar and the length of the interior . arms in large storage compartments, ergonomically designed door pulls and the speakers sound system are built into the main element of the ellipse.
Behind the front sports seats are comfortably in the form of two individual rear seats with backrests designed distinctly blowing the sides of the seat in order to create a fully contoured support of passengers. The “Club Lounge” character thus created stresses the individual nature and non-conventional paceman MINI Concept and helps turn every trip into an experience for the rear passengers as big as it is for the front.

2011 Saab PhoeniX Car Concept



2011 Saab PhoeniX Car Concept
Elegant, innovative and extremely effective: PhoeniX Saab concept car displays design features and technologies that will shape the next generation of Saab cars. Based on a new architecture that will enable the next Saab 9-3 model, Phoenix presents the project ‘aeromotional “: a visual evocation of the principles of aerodynamic design and passion for innovation that inspired the creators of the first Saab car, the iconic Ursaab.
Phoenix embraces tear ‘liquid metal’ forms and a dramatic glass canopy jet of inspiration that gives new expression to “wrap” signature Saab themes.The design and translucent ice block clean, muscular form allows an exceptionally low drag co-efficient of only 0.25 and also explores the potential for managing the flow of air through the use of distinctive side-mounted ‘winglets
Butterfly opening doors give easy access to a 2 +2 cabin, which combines simplicity with technology. It has a minimalist, “cut off” feel, including a new expression of the scheme focused on Saab’s driver, and a world premiere of the Saab Infotainment IQon innovative communications system. In fact Saab tradition, there is also an amazingly versatile loading platform.



 The Phoenix sets a new benchmark for the future of Saab design of product,” says Jason Castriota, executive director of Saab Automobile Design. “He symbolizes the rebirth of the innovative spirit and passion that led Saab to build its first car. We are now taking forward visual DNA with what we call the design ‘aeromotional,” adding energy, excitement and fluidity. This will shape and design aesthetics differentiate models of Saab’s future portfolio. ” As part of its body curl, Phoenix Saab employs an innovative drive system with a rear axle with an electric motor mated to a sophisticated gasoline engine 200 hp, 1.6-liter turbo. The result is an intelligent system, the capacity all-wheel-drive hybrid that enhances driving pleasure, reducing fuel consumption. fuel economy in combined cycle and CO2 emissions are projected to be only 5.0 l/100 km and 119 g / km


The Phoenix project theme is “aeromotional ‘is inspired by Saab’s aviation roots and draws Ursaab expression, the prototype designed by engineers from the aircraft which led the first generation of Saab cars.
The full form of the Phoenix is ??apparently shaped by the wind. Heavily involved with a layer of liquid as the teardrop cabin resembles a block of ice and darkness seems to erupt from the center of the body muscles. Two waves flow along the layer highlighted in the windshield pillars disguised as if he can barely contain a powerful structure underneath.
At the rear, the black screen also bursts through the outer skin of the back deck. The tapering form of tips in the style of Ursaab back tears, while the “sawed off, echoes Kamm tail coupe form of a first Saab, the Sonett. The style, presents a low front grille stretched interpretation Saab’s signature three-door.
A wing body color is now the dominant center and, in keeping with the minimalist design of the car, LED headlights are almost invisibly located at their tips. The new grille and hood forms are among the themes style will probably be seen in future production cars, Saab.
butterfly-opening doors provide greater access to low-slung cabin. There is no visible door handles or mirrors to stop the flow of air, and small cameras on slim stems back to provide vision. Roof-mounted “winglets” to enable Phoenix to break the air as efficiently as possible. They channel the airflow from the side of the car and drove it through the rear platform, reducing the lift forces for greater stability without increasing drag
