Электро-кроссовер-исследование хочу в середине сердца
На Kia-дизайнеров, которые для этого что-то необычное транспортное средство ответственны, хотите будущее покажет, в электрических транспортных средств не чисто «-А-в-б-машины». Конечно, они это точно, но здесь вам хочу продемонстрировать, что вам необходимо иметь с его е-авто также оптимальное отношение. Насколько Imagine by Kia (jup, это Название исследования) вызывает такие теплые чувства, решите пожалуйста сами. В конце концов, он честно старается быть разными и заметно. Это видно, например, на шесть слоев серебро хром-лак или 21 (!) Экраны на приборной панели, которые позволяют творить то же самое, как один многожильный стегозавра.
Для того, чтобы эти эмоции придумывать, создал Kia Электрический кроссовер, который подходит по словам автопроизводителя в конкретный сегмент. Некоторые утверждают, что это самое точное определение кроссовера, но в действительности это средство стирает границы немного больше, чем обычно. В целом, дизайн Imagine by Kia следовать уже имеющейся тенденции внедорожник купе с высокой линией талии и мускулистые плечи. Однако Kia Женева-Concept не сидит совсем близко к почве. Сзади, в свою очередь, этот автомобиль очень своеобразный, с узкими наливной задним матч и очень широких стойках он находится где-то посередине между седаном, купе и внедорожник.
И, таким образом, чтобы интерьер, где Imagine by Kia проходит так же, как высокой формы. В довольно странным способом. Приборная панель действительно приборной панели, а скорее для обмена упомянутыми 21 экраны, которые расположены, как действовать в кривой перед паспорт. На экраны показывают информацию об автомобиле все, без, что так правильно распознать, что происходит именно так. Kia говорит на самом деле «юмористическим и дерзкие контратаки, в условиях текущей конкуренции нескольких производителей автомобилей, кто может произвести автомобиль с самым большим экраном». Другими словами: интерьер данного исследования является шуткой. Мы находим этот случайный параметр, тем не менее, довольно велик. Ведь корейцы называют свою идею «свежий и оригинальный подход» в отношении современных Display-over Kills.
Что происходит во всем этом Geschwurbel о дизайне и Эмоции почти немного ниже, является тот факт, что это первый самостоятельный электрокар от Kia. Понятно, есть Электрический Soul и Ниро, но основанным на существующих, а не электрических транспортных средств. К сожалению, корейцы не платить данные привода, диапазон et cetera. Мы лишь узнаем, что Imagine имеет компактные трансмиссии с помощью индукционного аккумулятора пакет. Кроме того, отсутствие традиционного двигателя verhelfe автомобиле больше места.
В преддверии Женевского автосалона 2019 был gemutmaßt, что Imagine by Kia Электрический вариант Stinger мог предвидеть. Для этого указанный автомобиль, кажется, но немного странно.

Imagine by Kia: a new all-electric concept car revealed
5 марта 2019 года – Kia Motors has revealed its new all-electric concept car, ‘Imagine by Kia’, 2019 at the Geneva International Motor Show.
“Automotive design is about capturing the heart and making it beat that bit faster for that bit longer. We believe that there’s absolutely no reason why that should change simply because the car is electric,” говорит Грегори Гийом, Vice President of Design for Kia Motors Europe. “That’s why our all-electric concept is designed not only to get your pulse racing, but also to signpost our holistic and emotional approach to местности Электрификация.”
“Today’s drivers understandably have many questions about electric cars. They’Re concerned about range, recharging the network, and whether electric cars will still be dynamic and привлечение to drive. So, when we first started thinking about this concept and imagining what its role would be, we knew that the best way to answer those questions and address those concerns что by approaching местности Электрификация purely from an emotional point of view.”
This human-centric attitude is perfectly aligned with Kia’s attitude on automotive design, as Гийом explains. “When they talk about their electric cars, many carmakers promote the same rational and empirical data-driven messages as they do with their internal combustion двигателями cars, such as range, economy and performance criteria.”
“Kia гордится itself on its power to surprise, which is why we wanted to move away from the rational and focus on the emotional, and embrace a warmer and more human approach to местности Электрификация. After all, electricity is found within every atom, it’s the energy that flows within us and around us on our planet. Использование its potential has propelled forward us innovation from one to the next,” говорит Гийом.
A visual embodiment of Kia’s desire to move forward in the exciting world of местности Электрификация, Imagine by Kia is the company’s first pure electric four-passenger car door. Unlike the award-winning e-Ниро electric кроссовер, which is based on the existing architecture of the hybrid powered Ниро, Imagine by Kia is underpinned by a low-mounted, induction-charged battery pack powers that a compact привод.
Coherently drawing together elements of a muscular sports utility vehicle, a sleek and athletic family saloon, and a versatile and spacious crossover, by Imagine Kia is intentionally not designed to sit within the industry’s predefined vehicle categories.
“It’s a large C-сегменте car – the vehicle size that’s incredibly popular в Europe but the only things it holds on to are Kia’s brand values,” explains Гийом. “It hints at something familiar, but is something entirely new. I think of it as a category-buster, disruptor and a – it’s familiar and understood but at the same time and progressive new.”
Intelligently reinterpreting Kia’s iconic ‘tiger nose’ grille, Imagine by Kia features a bold new illuminated ‘tiger mask’ that encircles the main LED headlamp Unit. Separated by horizontal ‘eyelids’, the dipped and main beam units are housed with a single block of clear acrylic glass, creating the effect of piercing eyes free floating of visible поддержки. This striking ‘tiger mask’ creates a distinctive and recognisable lighting motif that instantly this marks out as a Kia for the 21st Century.
“The inspiration for the ‘tiger mask’ was to create the look and feel of the headlamps being suspended within a прозрачный block of glass,” explains Гийом. “This устройств освещения signature could potentially be deployed as a unifying элемент дизайна across Kia’s future range electric vehicle.”
The human approach to the design is encapsulated by the рюшей adorning its front air curtain and flanks. Each импульсов пульсации has a different length and is positioned at a different angle to the next so that light falling on the car’s flanks constantly creates the impression of movement.
“There’s a great sense of tension and purity in the car’s tautly-drawn sheetmetal and the crisp плечо линии складки that runs around the entire car. I wanted to introduce an element to create a пульсирующие effect in the metal, much like the shockwaves you would see if you threw a stone into a perfectly still mountain lake,” говорит Гийом.
The paintwork is a further example of warmth and approachability. Шесть рук-layers of applied chrome-effect silver paint are covered in a tanned бронзовый оттенок that looks warm and inviting to the touch. Highly sensitive to changing light conditions, the depth and sheen further enhances the concept’s curves and contours.
A single sheet of glass is used for both the windscreen and roof, flowing from the base of the A-pillar and over the cabin to create a vast sky-window before into a tapering double-bubble over the rear passenger compartment. The rakishness of the car’s high and shoulders narrow glasshouse are further enhanced by an illuminated dynamic streak that draws the eye from the A-pillar into the C-pillar, ending with an integrated lateral turn сигнал.
The front turn signals, located high up on the sharp-edged bonnet, объектов подсветкой светящиеся elements that appear to float in fins of clear acrylic glass. The rear lights are используются одинаково compelling. The turn signals are housed within deep-set tunnels to create a three-dimensional effect, with the looped lights расширения outwards as they grow in size. Горизонтально обернуть вокруг brake light strips create a visual link with the Kia Stinger.
The lighting systems play a key role in underlining the concept car’s friendliness and accessibility. “The flush-fitting Kia script on the front of the concept lights up and glows as the driver approaches the car, followed by the illuminated tiger mask – a welcoming gesture to the driver at the start of the journey,” explains Гийом.
Even the wheels contribute to the visual relationship that the car has with the movement of light. Each of the 22-inch alloy wheels has four flush inserts of transparent acrylic glass, polished at the front and diamond cross-cut at the back, to reflect refract and the light, much like a diamond cut would, as the wheels move. The wheels themselves are shod with bespoke Goodyear 255/35 R22 Intelli Grip EV concept tyres.*
Гийом design and his team also focused a great deal of their attention on the vehicle’s aerodynamics, ensuring sliced the car as cleanly as possible through the air to reduce turbulence and extend its range.
“The front air curtain; the way the double-skin bonnet air channels through the nose up and over the front screen and roof; skinned the double C-pillar that creates an air спойлер; the completely enclosed underbody; the wind-обман ‘wingcams’ and the hard-edged break-away around the car’s rear – all these features collectively boost aerodynamic efficiency and reduce turbulence and drag,” Гийом explains.
“We wanted the interior to have a twinkle in its eye, to be full of surprising and delightful that touches amuse, engage and attract both driver and passenger alike,” explains Ральф Мудрый, Kia Motors europe’s general manager of interior design.
The layout of the powertrain created a chassis architecture that is distinctly different to that of a vehicle powered by an internal combustion engine. It’s a layout that Guillaume and his team fully exploited to maximise space cabin and create an airy and spacious interior and one with a wry sense of humour, ТОО.
21 individual ultra high-resolution screens curve their synchronised way across the top of the dashboard layout in a that’s at the same time both casual and co-ordinated. It takes just a single glance to understand what Мудрый means. “21 тезис incredibly thin screens are a humorous and irreverent ответный удар to the on-going competition between some automotive manufacturers to see who can produce the car with the biggest screen,” говорит Мудрый.
They may form a striking sculptural feature that neatly ties in with the пульсирующие and light-reflecting exterior design motifs, but this screen wall is also highly functional. It effectively creates a single unified display from the driver’s point of view, without the ever-increasing bulk and rigidity of traditional in-car дисплеев a fresh and хитроумная approach on how to move away from traditional fixed экраны.
“It’s an immersive display information on delivering the car’s climate control, birds-eye навигации, drive and media systems. The screens will also display a raft of Kia concepts from years gone by to create an emotional link between past, present and future,” говорит Мудрый. “With this combination of arresting artistry and information we’Re drawing on memories of our past in a car that’s heading straight into our future.”
The cabin’s sense of light-heartedness is underpinned by the striking shockwave design of the four leather and silk-covered seats. “We wanted to create a polarity between how the chairs внешний вид. Their diamond cross-cut раковины look slim and lightweight but they are actually incredibly strong and robust,” adds Мудрый, “and when you sit in them, you discover that the seats are very comfortable and supportive.”
The cabin’s airy atmosphere is further enhanced by the floating centre console that, like a wing, hovers above the independently and low floor flat. The doors – тыл-hinged at the back for greater access are swathed in a metallic fabric and leather, visually splitting the cabin into two distinct upper and lower levels. “The goal was to create an interior that felt ru-rather cluttered than de-contented,” говорит Мудрый. “This approach is also reflected in the tactile скульптурные steering wheel and the pedals that are recessed when the car is stationary.”
The versatility of the all-electric architecture has not only enabled the Kia design team to create this open and spacious interior for passengers, but also for their luggage. Imagine by Kia boasts two емки loadbays: a ‘frunk’ front trunk and a traditional rear storage area accessed through the glass hatch.
“As you all know, Kia гордится itself on our power to surprise, and it’s this unorthodox approach that fired our collective imagination, us moving away from the rational, to embrace a warmer and more human approach to местности Электрификация,” говорит Гийом.
“We imagined designing an all-electric car that not only answered consumer concerns range around, производительность, recharging networks dynamism and driving, but also one that gave you goose bumps when you looked at it, and made the hairs on the back of your neck stand up when you drove it.
“We imagined a future where привлечение and dynamic cars like this were an integral part of our transport requirements. So it will come as no surprise then that we have named our new concept ‘by Imagine Kia’. And its message is clear,” говорит Гийом. “It’s time to free your imagination, to stop wondering and to start driving!”
