Surely, you must remember Italdesign’s GEA prototype from the Geneva Motor Show. There’s no way one could possibly forget those sleek lines.
As a rule of thumb, concept cars have a short lifespan and after a public debut (at a major car show), they are usually locked up, never to be seen again. Not this one…
Apparently, GEA was recently sighted on a street in Milan; that’s because the concept car promotes Italdesign’s campaign, in which you can win an exclusive visit to Giugiaro’s headquarters and a test drive with this great machine.
The rules are simple: you must find the car in Milan, take a selfie with it and then post it on any major social media platform with the hashtag #GEAtaggati. If getting all the way to Milan represents a slight inconvenience, then you’re in luck (sort of…). The car will be heading to Turin and Berlin, so maybe you can catch it there.
Not sure how the test drive will work out, given the fact that the four electric motors powering the car are said to deliver a total output of 764 bhp, not to mention that it can be autonomous at the push of a button. I imagine it being an overwhelming experience.
Wolfgang Egger, a former Audi designer, penned the GEA and he did a marvelous job at it – well, except perhaps the size of the 26-inch wheels that make it look a little Donk. The car also features Audi’s Laserlight technology, but that’s one of many advantages if Volkswagen buys you – you get your hands on awesome new tech.
