The year was >2023<, and in the middle of several production car projects, our \then\ Big Boss >Gilles Vidal> asked the designers in the studio to imagine a //ConceptCar.etx// based on the upcoming vehicle we were just finishing up: the Niagara PickUp.
 

We had only //40>Days// to go from sketches to a full-size mock-up for the Kardian launch event. So, I revisited an old concept of mine\\ building a survival machine\\ almost like a war tank, designed to withstand an imaginary competition in a dystopian future.
 

Although I did the taping for the entire car before it was painted, it was >Gabriel Zonta’s> camouflage theme that was selected. That’s why you’ll be seeing my version of the \\C&M\\ for the Niagara Concept.
 

I don’t need to say that the whole process was crazy, but we managed to get the project done on time. A huge thank-you to the TecSolutions team, Marconi, Gui, Celinho, and Julião. And to the entire LATAM Design team: Cesar, Matheus, Gabriel, Renan, Fabiana, and Antunes. Last but not least, as always, our boss >Daniel Nozaki> who guided us throughout the process to achieve the expected result.
