AutoDesign - Latest sports cars go for hatchback styling

The latest automobile show in Geneva shows one new design trend in automobiles. Butt-less: this seems to be design that most automobile designers use for their concept and sports cars. This type of design was popularized by the Jaguar E-Type and the Laborghini Miura which remains to this day 2 of the most beautiful sports cars ever made. Some of the concept cars previewed with such design themes come from Saab and Mazda.

The Saab Aero X below should win the most striking concept car award at the Geneva, especially for its futuristic door opening mechanism and the design showcasing Saab's latest philosophy.

Another beautiful detail was the nice horizontal LED rear lights and the turbine-look alloy wheels marking Saab's aerospace links.


The other amazing car was the Mazda Kabura, which looks set to become another design success after its RX-8. Could this be the potential replacement for the RX-8 since it is a real coupe that still offers a similar standard of practicality to the 4 door RX-8.
