CAR Inquisition: It costs as much to make a dull design as an exciting one
CAR, 16 September 2015
Abstract/Summary
Simon Cox is in thoughtful mood, as you’d expect from one of the more cerebral car designers. Take his breakthrough concept, the Isuzu Vehi-Cross: in 1993 Cox helped conceive a vehicle which fused a 4×4’s toughness with a sports car’s performance.
Such ‘crossovers’ are utterly routine now, but it took another decade for the Infiniti FX and then the BMW X6 to make such mash-ups mainstream.
