infiniti lifted the virtual covers off of the infiniti concept vision gran turismo, offering a glimpse of what a high performance infiniti could look like in the future. it was created in close collaboration with the creators of gran turismo, the racing game franchise developed by polyphony digital and will be available for download exclusively on the playstation 3 system.

the infiniti concept vision gran turismo started as a global design competition to ‘create a pure infiniti GT car’ 

‘the winning model was born from the theme put forward by infiniti’s design team in beijing,’ said a spokesman at infiniti. ‘part beauty, part beast, its shape is powerful, sensual and audacious – a mix of a track machine and the dream of our chinese design team to create an ambitious racing language for the company.the process of developing the design of the infiniti concept vision gran turismo started with hand sketching, then refined digitally, refined again by hand sculpting, and then returned to digital for final refinement.’

the car included examinations and calculations of technical features such as aerodynamics and engine performance

examples include aerodynamic features such as under-floor airflow control, front and back diffusers, and a rear spoiler
