Concept car · 1986 · Combustion
A CAD-designed 2+2 with automatic four-wheel drive
The Proxima was a carbon-composite 2+2 coupe developed with then-novel CAD tools and a large polycarbonate canopy. Its twin-turbo PRV V6 drove an intelligent four-wheel-drive system that engaged automatically at the first sign of wheelspin, while cameras, a navigation system and automatic tyre-pressure control hinted at the connected cars to come.
