r/CarDesign

So this is a sketch I did sometime back,can you guess where I got the inspiration from*hint* check the side vents

Tried many headlights and didn't like any yet

I need carreer advice

I'm a graduated Aeronautical Engineer. Three years ago, I found my passion for cars and pursued a Master's Degree in Automotive Engineering, which I'm graduating soon.

I've liked cars since very young and drew them as a hobby, but I had never thought of it as a career, until I was working as an engineer three years ago and decided to learn how to design them for passion.

I decided to enroll in courses and learned sketching and 3D modeling in Blender, along with Vizcom.

These renders are recent designs that I made.

I'm looking for a job in automotive engineering right now, to get inside the sector, but I would really like to one day work as an exterior designer of a car brand.

I'm interested in learning automotive design properly and I'm looking for universities or schools that offer car design or transportation design programs.

Do you have any recommendations?

Thanks in advance

I painted all the black parts of the car in body colour, added a Hyundai logo and some steel wheels. I think it looks reasonably nice and acceptable as a Hyundai electric car, although it still looks like a rather typical, anonymous looking EV. It looks like a car that would cost between 40-60 k.

So this is like a random concept thing I did months ago,nobody ask me what it is cause I have no idea,it is what it is in your head so what do you guys think it is?

i’ve been drawing cars for a while and discovered this sub a whole back

i might post my 3d works here later

McLaren just revealed the McL 6GT concept at Monterey Car Week — a modern take on Bruce McLaren's unfinished 1969 M6GT. Manual gearbox (first H-pattern from McLaren since the F1), V8, carbon monocoque, and genuinely restrained retro surfacing instead of the usual angular McLaren language.

Surprised it hasn't come up here yet — curious what people think of the design, especially compared to the concepts we usually get from them.

Nine years ago, this thing had an audience before it had panels.

October 2017. Varis had a Version 3 widebody for the Evo X that hadn't been shown anywhere yet, and they let us debut it at SEMA instead of Tokyo Auto Salon. That almost never happens. The only other time was our Concept One FR-S.

So we opened a thread on EvoXForums and put the whole thing up as it went. Sketches, then the clay. Panels test-fitted raw. Off the shelf vinyl wouldn't get us the red we wanted, so we printed our own. Then the AMS 2.2 crate motor went in, 800hp capable, ETS 6766 hanging off it.

Wheels and brakes came last. Hyperlock 19x11 -35 centerlocks over R35 GT-R calipers converted to Overtake carbon ceramics, and we asked the thread which finish to run. Silver or black.

Five days after that first post it was on a truck to Vegas.

The templates of the car is from some other guy it's not mine,but I built it(which also takes fucking patience). I added custom wide dish bbs wheels,used a bit aluminium from sprite can,the box is designed by me completely (used a bit of ai🥀,I took the car's picture which i clicked, put it on to gemini,told it to change it to pop race vibe and then I removed the background and added some logos and vector design (done on my tab using krita),the plastic is ohp sheet, total cost is something 80-90 rs but hardwork is priceless(or ig 90-100rs🥀)

Hope y'all liked ittt

Fully original concept.

Interior is fully modelled as well, more pics of that tmrw or Thursday maybe :p Let me know your thoughts :)

(My favourite automakers at the moment are BMW and Geely)

Meet the world's fastest suitcase, a conceptual livery for Samsonite.

Race by race, this livery becomes a diary of the season. Every scuff, every sticker, every dent tells you where it has been. What if we embrace that, rather than staying pristine?

Your suitcase does the same thing. It is not damaged, it is just a record of your journey.

That is the story Samsonite has been telling for over a century. And this concept showcases what that idea would look like on a cup car.  

I would love to hear what the community thinks!

I’m thinking 1.4 turbo Abarth engine and underpinnings 💨

I’m in a place of learning the car design art style(sketching)
So these are not on that level yet

Im also going to proceed to 3d for this concept soon
but want feedback first
thanks!

Both EU specs:

1974 Grand-Fractura Lexact GF-T (red)

1975 Grand-Fractura Lexact Gf-C (purple)

The GF-T and C Versions of the Lexact are let’s say, your average sports car. Whereas the GF-T Fonck Edition which was definitely made for competition, these versions however brings you more basic characteristics of a sports car. The rear solid axle is definitely more cheaper to produce yet efficient instead of the rear independent double wishbone suspensions of the Fonck edition. That doesn’t mean that these cars canot take corners as well as the Fonck, since we still have some stiff springs and shocks.

The difference between the GF-T and the GF-C:

GF-T:

The GF-T bears a more rugged and mean CIH inline four. Developing at about 170 hp, custom aftermarket parts can take it up to 310 hps. While not really being powerful, it’s perfect for anybody who wish to get into track racing for a cheaper price or a sporty feeling for less.

GF-C:

The GF-C however, while looking just like his brother, is hiding his game a little too well. The Inline Four has been replaced by a straight six. Developing at about 270 hp. That might sounds not that big of jump, but we have to remind you that the car weighs at about 930 kg. So a 100hp difference will be automatically felt. This version is for those who stills looks for a cheaper alternative to a sports car but has a few more to throw into something serious. It’s playing in a more mature category of cars despite its looks. Customize and you get approximately around 300 to 400 hp.

Visual wise the two might look the same but there’s little hints that differentiate one from another.

Let’s start with the GF-T. The stripes looks tribal and points at the front. Followed by another line of shattered stripes just below the arrow shaped look. While the GF-C has a more clean and continuous bottom stripe that breaks anytime there’s a separation like a door or a fender.

The two versions has their letters written just above the fuel cap to really differentiate them appart.

If that wasn’t enough, the GF-T hood is darkened while the GF-C has hood stripe.

To finish, depends on what you wanna spend on you next car, one of them gives different types of driving experience, it’s only up to you.

*though I’m fairly satisfied with how the GF-T looks I totally messed up the looks of the the GF-C.

Now I’m working on finishing the interior, and then I’ll fully finish the body.

Initially I used a pencil for build right forms, than I added shadows with a black pen and a liner
