Pininfarina, maybe the solitary most prominent car design and coach building firm in history, has penned lines that define automotive beauty. Classic cars like the the Ferrari P4/5, the 330GTC, the Testarossa and the 410 Superamerica shows both modern and vintage that shape our concept of what cars should look like. Pininfarina is now introducing a new concept car, for the first time since the Maserati Birdcage 75th Concept shown for the first time last three years ago.
Aside from being a cutting-edge technology showcase, Sintesi embraces innovative technologies that allow people especially the car owners to explore new typologies of mobility, active safety and packaging solutions, it is according to the project’s design director. That may be something of a mouthful, however, Sintesi does intimate that the concept will be futuristic and unique, that will trace the outline of what is to come over the next few decades of automotive design and development.
However, in the state-of-the-art fusion, sport and function are not lost. After all, the Sintesi is still a Pininfarina design and in the Sintesi, the passion and purity of vision that goes into every Pininfarina will show through. So far, the Company has to favor the world with any pictures as up till now, although it hints at an upcoming online teaser campaign this January. At the Geneva Motor Show in March, 2008, the car will make its global debut.
Here are the official information and images about the concept after four weeks of teaser imagine and desultory information about the Sintesi Concept. It is a sports car that has four doors and four seats, which was developed by a highly innovative approach: it considers the car as the one that gives a shape to the mechanicals around the passengers, and not the car as a shape that covers the mechanicals. This is known as “Liquid” Packaging approach that has overturned traditional volumetric balances, which improves weight distribution and lowers the centre of gravity that are important elements for driving dynamics.
Made possible by close collaboration with Nuvera, The Pininfarina Sintesi concept car has developed the Quadrivium Fuel Cells system, which the various components of the said system were distributed around the car, with four fuel cells located near to the wheels. A much more generous space for the passengers is the result, which is in proportion to the total volume of the car, without pessimistic from the sporty line with its relaxed, elegant profile that is sleek, tapered and aerodynamic (Cd = 0.27). Combined with the batteries and a sophisticated overall electronic architecture (developed with PI Shurlok), the modular nature of the fuel cells allows for modular use of the available power depending on driving conditions.
At every Geneva auto show, boutique carmakers and coachbuilders are in the spotlight. Pininfarina demonstrates this year that it can fashion more than Ferraris with its radical four-door Sintesi. The slippery styling of the fuel-cell-powered Sintesi concept utilizes as many aero devices and forms on its underside as on its body, including the weight distribution and passenger space optimized by spreading the power train components throughout the body structure instead of concentrating them together in front, in back, or in the middle. The Peninfarina Sintesi is really a futuristic concept of a sports car. It is another amazing car added to the industry of automobiles. It opts for light emitting diodes from OSRAM and caused a sensation at the 2008 Geneva Motor Show because of its fantastic headlight design that features high-brightness LEDs from OSRAM Opto Semiconductors. There is a continuous narrow strip that contains 16 OSTAR high power LEDs instead of two separate headlights. OSRAM LEDs are also chosen by Peninfarina for all other light tasks in Sintesi including daytime running lights, turn lights and taillight clusters as well as the distinctive interior lighting of the car with LINEARlight Flex LED modules.
