Vision GT
The Vision Gran Turismo program (commonly abbreviated Vision GT or VGT) is a series of fictional concept cars for the Gran Turismo video game series, developed by a cross-section of the world's top automobile manufacturers. These vehicles appeared originally in the video games Gran Turismo 6, and later in Gran Turismo Sport, both from Polyphony Digital.
Designed as the ultimate virtual endurance racer, the new Vision GT SV’s extraordinary all-electric propulsion system was developed by the same Jaguar Racing engineers behind the first Vision GT Coupé and Jaguar I-TYPE’s six successive Formula E seasons.
The original Vision GT Coupé’s streamlined silhouette is still clearly recognisable in the new Vision GT SV, including the curvature of the C- and D-type-inspired fenders. But the single most effective aero feature is its new deployable rear wing, inspired by endurance racing cars from Jaguar’s rich lineage, including the XJR-14.
This vehicle, operated in the prone position, uses pulses of light to propel it to speeds of up to 417 kilometers per hour (259 mph). The vehicle can be seen as an extension of the driver's body, with controls located at the end of each limb in place of a steering wheel and the driver's head within a specialized helmet that integrates with the car's shape.
The name "Vision Gran Turismo" was originally used for a Gran Turismo HD trailer in 2006. In 2013, to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the series, Polyphony Digital announced "Vision Gran Turismo", a special project featuring concept cars designed for the game by top automobile companies, as well as sportswear brands Air Jordan and Nike and coachbuilders such as Zagato.
