Car Description

Ever since its inception as the Rinkai Motor Company over four decades ago, Mizuiro has always been about the thrill of the drive, and this philosophy has persisted through its motorsports activities and handling-focussed lineup. Celebrating 20 years of Mizuiro, the KOURYUU Vision Automation Turismo is an evolution of the company's passion for performance that's meant to be enjoyed.

Contained within a form that effortlessly slices through the air, a mid-mounted high-revving 3.7L V10 engine sends 419 kW (563 hp) to all four wheels through a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, while double-wishbone pushrod suspension helps the wheels stay connected to the road. At higher speeds, an aerodynamic underbody provides downforce and allows the car to stay planted at speeds of over 300 kph (186 mph). The majority of the KOURYUU VAT’s chassis, body, and interior are made of advanced carbon fibre, while the engine block and heads are respectively cast from magnesium and aluminium alloys. As such, the car only weighs 926 kg (2041 lb) and has a power-to-weight ratio of 0.405 kW/kg (0.246 hp/lb). Weight reduction has been made easier with the omission of forced induction and systems like active suspension and aerodynamics, resulting in a wide power band, increased longevity, and a back-to-basics approach towards handling.

Accessed via butterfly doors, the three-seat interior with its central driver seating position is evocative of a car poised to deliver the ultimate driving experience. The conventional instrument cluster has been replaced with a wide, thin OLED screen that displays data, such as a centrally positioned linear tachometer that doubles as a shift indicator. Padded bucket seats provide each occupant with optimal support without sacrificing comfort.

With its understated yet dynamic styling that incorporates both curves and angles, the Mizuiro KOURYUU Vision Automation Turismo serves as both an homage to the legacy of Rinkai and as a vision for the future of Mizuiro.
