Giugiaro Brivido

The Brivido at the Festival Automobile International.

The Giugiaro Brivido is a supercar made by Italian design house Italdesign Giugiaro.[1] It is not slated to go into production.[2] It is designed to give supercar-like performance while helping protect the earth.[3]

It has a 3.0 liter V6 engine and an electric motor to provide 768 horsepower and 1080 newton metres of torque. Its 8-speed automatic transmission also helps it to have a top speed of 275 km/h and reach 100 km/h in just 5.8 seconds. It has a lightweight body made of only carbon fiber, glass and aluminium. One of its conceptual features is its side mirrors which, rather than being actual side mirrors, are cameras which connect to small displays either side of the steering wheel. It also has a 3D infotainment system with 3D glasses.[2] The concept car is painted in Xirallic pearl lustre red. The interior is sewn with raw cut skins. It also has gullwing doors of a large size with inbuilt cushions, which allow for easy access of the front and rear seats. The Brivido was one of the first cars in the world to have headlight clusters. Giorgio Giugiaro stated about the car: 'This is a quest for a genuine four seater to offer comfort and visibility.'[3]
