Wink as f**k
Naming CZ7 after CZ6? is that legit ???
S310 looks nice. 10/10 would own one ( gonna change my Saminda C3 to a more powerful vehicle)
CZ7 is kind of design exercise for our designeers and kind of insult for ceasing CZ6 also it was like “Look, we can do a supercar that has epic performance and no fucking massive recalls” xD
I can always change the name if Starfish isn’t okay with this.
Surprisingly enough, Bogliq released 200 Sport, and my 1976 S200 is acronym for Sport 200… Coincidence?
Also company named Vyctor used name Chimera, so well… I would make a drama for copying the full lineup, but for one name? Yamaha plz xD
IRL there were really lots of cars with the same names. I’ve even read an article “All cars named Ranger”, and the list wasn’t short
Making repost just because it’s also my company’s car. Don’t kill me Killrob.
Today at 6:32 London Time one covered supercar was delivered to Saminda headquarters and driven into open garage with test models. Then it got uncovered and secretly unveiled as CZ7 Concept.
Well, Airborne CZ7 Concept is something made purely to show Saminda in which direction they can also go (even by sub-companies or coop); economical, but powerful units. Engine of this thing is a 4000cc V6 based on CZ6’s engine that was sourced from totaled unit.
As Airborne’s tradition says, they used classic monocoque chassis made from carbon fibre (strongly based on Megi pre-production concept) and assembled to carbon fibre bodyshell. Wheels are also made from carbon fibre.
Suspension is however something pretty new to company; they are full-prepared pushrods to provide most sporty experience possible in a sports car. According to Airborne’s reputation about great gearboxes they installed 7-speed sequential box delivered straight from Haiyan and AWD drivetrain with torque placed more to rear than to front to avoid understeer. Sadly, due to aerodynamic needs CZ7 also has gargantuicly big rear wing and massive front lip.
About performance, well - this car needs only 2.7 seconds to 100 km/h, can reach 326 km/h (it can even 365 with AERO OFF mode, but we don’t recommend it ). Brakes are delivered straight from Cerberus limited hypercar and set up for racing, so the car brakes from 100 km/h from distance well below 30 metres.
You should check also Synth GT1 from 1998 (in this thread) - fitted the wing on it also pretty well
Post from 4.03.2016. Adding it here for sake of completiness of my designs related to here.
Today at stand of Airborne Motor Group one small man (approx 1,40 m tall) walked on the scene and uncovered the boxy kei car that was under yellow coat. After that he described shortly the new car: Senpai, and asked for frequently asked questions on conference, as below:
I like to bring you here today at stand of whole Airborne Motor Group. I’m presenting to you, as new CEO of Ray Automobiles, our new car, the Senpai. We used that name, because we like to think that we are the older and more experienced company in the motor group we are actually in. Speaking about the car, it’s a kei car, fits under regulations. It’s not the best car in the world, however we designed it to be one of the cars that newbie Japanese driver can select for small amount of money. It’s designed for young people just wanting a car, but hey, we will also give them possibilities to personalize their Senpai! We can paint the car in any color that customer will want, even sparkling pink! If you will ask about the price, it’s 14.000 USD. Now just watch the car, because I feel sick…
By the way - Ray Automobiles’s CEO is named Tsubuya Hirachinaka, is 34 years old (born in 1982) and has problems with legs and stress, so he isn’t appearing that much on scene. After this press show, he told privately one reviewer that long-awaited Shibatron is being finalized.
Below, identity card for Senpai:
please notice senpai and gib opinions, kawaii desu ne <3
Personalizing my senpai?
Does that mean I can have it with twin tails, hair decorations and Grade S ZR?
Repost from 17.02.2016. Adding for sake of completiness of my car designs that I missed to post here.
(I hope if releasing day by day format will be not cheating here squid )
Airborne Automotive at their exhibit showed today one new car, the Knossos and basic specs of F15 Patricia well known from AMWEC 2015, this one from the start line.
First car, the Knossos, is a huge SUV that works as replacement for Arthemis, one of longest-produced vehicles for company which was also the only vehicle available in Africa oficially from 1990 to November 2006. New SUV is practically the opposite of it’s precedessor - it’s no longer spartan, it’s fitted with luxury but it’s still capable in offroad thanks to AWD and lifted suspension configured specially for mud roads and various surfaces (except rocks - this car is not rock crawler). It utilises hard long life road to be useful as in off-road, as on the street. Design features clues from newest Airborne cars, such as F15 Patricia, Cerera, Megi or even some clues from Auxuras vehicles, because some designer from them helped us (we won’t tell which one, due to his boss and wife ). Knossos appears in three versions of engines, but the cars look the same in fact (except rims):
Standard (with turbocharged inline 6)
First engine available for Knossos is 2500cc inline 6 with turbocharging known from new Alpha, but tuned for moving such a heavy vehicle as the Knossos is. With tune-up to 400 hp, cutting redline down for better off-roading, automatic torque converter (which is uncommon gearbox in our company and in fact for now appears only in Knossos), McPherson struts in front and MultiLink suspension in rear this two ton tank can go to 100 km/h in time not exceeding 7 seconds and can reach acceptable top speed of 219 km/h.
Price (MY2016): 168.720 $
Knossos S (with NA V8)
Second engine that you can select for Knossos is V8 NA one delivered from Cerera and slightly detuned for better off-roading use (505 hp vs 494 - not really a difference, huh?). It features the same equipment as the I6 - just another engine. Of course, suspension is slightly stiffened in comparison to the weaker one, and the car is really faster - Knossos S can reach 254 km/h and 4.4 seconds to 100 with ease despite fact it weighs 2139 kilos! Currently it’s the heaviest car we offer in the company, by the way.
Price (MY2016): 204.390 $
Knossos Speed 12 (V12!!!)
The last one is the best one - what will happen if you will give Knossos S to Airborne Speed Division which is featured with speed freaks? Knossos Speed 12! It features V12 engine with no turbocharging specially made for Knossos. It has over 600 hp and with sequential gearbox it can move itself to 100 in unreal time of 3.5 seconds and can reach 290 km/h which pulls Knossos into performance area of Bentley Bentayga! The Knossos S12 is put on display in fact - don’t be fooled by V8 badges, it’s just our mismatch which we decided to trick out spy photographs.
Price (MY2016): 254.800 $
F15 Patricia basic specs:
Top Speed: ~340 km/h
0-100: ~3.3 sec
Engine: V6 DOHC 3899cm3
Maximum Power: 479 hp @ 7900 rpm
Maximum Torque: 461 Nm @ 6500 rpm
Weight: ~1150 kg
Airborne Automotive is open for interviews and questions, we will answer them all!
Well… You can personalize it like most funky cars today (Mini, Nissan Juke etc), however if you will pay I guess that even hentai octopus plushie in your trunk can be possible
Car from 2.03.2016, Geneva Auto Show. Posting again for sake of completiness.
BTW sales delayed to early 2017, development took quite longer that we thought
Aha! I remember seeing that at the auto show. Feels like ages ago!
Haha thx
I found them and thought that it would be nice to share them also here
Time for new model!
MY2017 Airborne Mimas (Standard/Eco)
Some months ago we presented almost production ready concept Mimas for public. Surprisingly enough, mostly poor students/young people who were searching for their first car were mostly interested in production plans, however argued about some questions. When we prepared full-ready production version we listened to them and created practically new Mimas (concept was well, bit too extreme). These versions, especially Eco, were prepared as cheap commuters for poor people, those who don’t need very much stuff (just car to drive) and possibly most universal one.
One of achievements with Mimas is fact that it reached lowest mileage ever recorded on Airborne’s production car. Also, it’s achievable - hence our fuel mileage testing program tests this value on real roads, in real life, in real traffic.
The car will cost 13.995 $ in Eco variant and 16.140 $ in Standard version (both without taxes and fees), however students and young/learning people who need their commuter to go to school will get 30% discount on Eco version.
2017 Airborne Mimas S
Sporty version of production car called Mimas. Still has FWD. Main differences are stiffened suspension, more power, fuckmassive wing on the rear (downforce yo), interior stripped out of two seats (prototype S had four seats, hence the weight difference, current one is below a tonne), sporty Sparco bucket seats, less entertainment equipment (reduced to basic radio with mp3 usb player) and steering wheel taken from Haiyan. Price - 18.380 $ without taxes and fees.
Let’s bring one of our historical vehicles:
1982-1987 Airborne Persephone
Named after Greek-mythology goddess of underground world and wife of Hades, Persephone was the thing that post-1973 Airborne needed since presentation of A27; reliable, fairly cheap, competitive compact. After announcing in 1982 and selling first cars it became instant hit; in first year there were 150.000 units sold.
I wpuld love an 83 coupe for the DSD museum if u r interested just pm myself cheers
