pininfarina sintesi concept

Pininfarina's first concept in three years, the Sintesi is inspired as a halfway point between its spectacular 2005 Maserati Birdcage Concept and its 2004 Nido city car concept. Essentially, the Sintesi is designed to reflect both a sporty and a practical nature. The lower portion of the Sintesi's nose mimics the Pininfarina-designed Ferrari Enzo with its F1-inspired triangular divot.
The sporty four-door seats four and has a long, rakish body that achieves a Cd of 0.27. Although the concept employs a Quadrivium Fuel Cell system with four fuel cells near the wheels, Pininfarina says the impact on cabin space is minimal. The concept uses a system of wireless connectivity, linking it to the town, the road, and other vehicles. Pininfarina claims that this system makes the concept safe enough that it could be designed without influence from "today's bulky passive safety systems."
