For most automakers, diversifying their product lineup means tackling new car segments, but how would you feel if Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren, and others would decide go bat-crazy and enter the pickup truck market?
No, this is not one of those ‘alleged reports‘ stories, but a flight of fantasy, possibly resulting from boredom that creatively focuses on a bunch of supercars that were transformed into workhorses by YasidDesign.
The first rendering shows one of Ferrari’s finest – the F40, having part of its roof chopped off and its rear overhang increased, to make room for a bed. A Mercedes SLR McLaren has received the same treatment, alongside a lowered body, and so has a Lamborghini Huracan.
For Nissan’s Godzilla, the GT-R, the rendering artist had a different idea in his mind, one that sees it adopt a wide body kit, a large rear diffuser, and massive drag radials, in addition to an open truck bed, whereas the final image shows McLaren’s most powerful street-legal machine yet, the P1, imagined as a Ute.
It’s safe to say that, unless a crazy car collector with deep pockets and a heavy bank account decides to turn to a third party to have his supercar turned into a pickup, these vehicles will never see the light of day, but hypothetically speaking, if you could, would you do it?
