An Audi-based concept from 1973 served as the model for the wedge-shaped coupe.

Italdesign realizes ideas aren’t just about what’s in store.

The unbelievable Italian coachbuilder has quite recently uncovered another EV model called the Asso di Picche In Movimento. The cutting edge speed machine is a tribute to a wedge-molded sports vehicle that the company’s pioneer, Giorgetto Giugiaro, planned fifty years prior.

The first Asso di Picche — and that signifies “Trump card” in Italian — made its presentation at the Frankfurt Engine Show in 1973. It was the first of Giugiaro’s celebrated “Asso” ideas and depended on the two-entryway Audi 80 that appeared a year sooner. The planner acquired the skeleton and mechanics from the reasonable German vehicle and gave it a head-turning wedge-molded body. The vehicle never went into creation, yet it would move two of the extraordinary assembly vehicles of the future — the Audi Quattro and Lancia Delta.

After fifty years, Italdesign has refreshed the staggering plan for the electric time. The idea is significantly more wedge-molded than its ancestor. The 2+2 roadster is 15.3 feet long, 6.4 feet wide, and only four feet tall, making it comparably low-threw as EVs get. Its lines aren’t quite as sharp as those on the first vehicle, particularly around the wheels, yet that makes it more streamlined. Our #1 detail is the way that the front end, rooftop, and tail board flawlessly mix into each other. The main pictures of the inside are configuration portrays, yet they share the outside’s smoothness. Other ground breaking contacts incorporate twofold pivoted entryways that slide forward prior to turning, cameras rather than side-view mirrors, and a computerized lighting bundle.

We know nothing about the Asso di Picche In Movimento’s tech other than that it will be based on a cutting edge stage. Any reasonable person would agree it packs even more a punch as opposed to the first idea, which was fueled by an inline-four that delivered 54 hp and 68 ft lbs of force. You’ll have the option to charge the vehicle through a port stowed away in the storage compartment.

You will still get the opportunity to drive Italdesign’s new concept car, even if at this stage it is just being referred to as a digital display car. Over the years, the coachbuilder has demonstrated a willingness to produce some of its more bizarre designs; perhaps the Asso di Picche In Movimento will be the next.
