Morgan EvaGT, how are you today?

For automotive enthusiasts when talking about sports cars, or supercars, it seems endless. There are always topics of conversation, ranging from classic models, to futuristic. Well, on this occasion will be discussed again about a beautiful supercar named Morgan EvaGT presented by Morgan Motor Company back in 2010.

Yes, this manufacturer is one of the few sports car manufacturers from the UK that able to survive today. The design of Morgan cars is known to be very classic. As we all knew, Morgan Motor Company was founded by Henry Frederick Stanley Morgan (HFS) in 1913. And today, the company is led by Charles Morgan, one of HFS's grandsons.

To develop its business, Morgan Motor Company is collaborating with BMW, Siemens and Bosch, and also a number of renowned universities in the UK. And starting in 2010 Morgan Motor Company is committed to releasing a new model every two years.

Morgan EvaGT has debuted at the 2010 Pebble Beach and might be the only car model ever made. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2r8heCW)

Back to Morgan EvaGT, this is a luxurious 4-seater grand tourer inspired by British sports saloons in the 1950s, such as the Bristol 400 and BMW Frazer Nash BMW 328. This classy car uses an aluminum chassis which is the result of further development of Morgan Aero SuperSports, which is a chassis that successfully competed in the GT3 Sports Car Racing international racing event. And reportedly, the chassis has received the green light from the official safety boards in the US and Europe.

While for its power source, the manufacturer is planted a BMW 6-cylinder engine, 3,000 cc, twin-turbo straight-six capable of spraying power up to 302 hp and 295 lb.ft of torque and combined with ZF automatic transmission systems or manual 6-speed. The BMW engine is also said to have complied with Euro 5 and Euro 6 emission regulations.

The use of the aluminum platform is intended to reduce the weight of the car so that it can save fuel consumption but still provide optimal safety. So, the weight of this car is only 1,250 kg with fuel consumption of 14.16 km/liter. The top speed that can be achieved by EvaGT is estimated at around 273 kph and acceleration 0-100 kph in around 4.5 seconds.

"EvaGT is intended to be able to serve the family's daily transportation wrapped in a luxury GT car," said Charles Morgan.

"The back seat will be comfortable for children and adults, and it should also be able to make it comfortable if occasionally someone taller is used it," he added.

Therefore, in order to provide extra practicality, the dimensions of the Eva GT were made 4.7 meters longer, 1.8 meters wider and 1.2 meters taller than Morgan Aeromax. While the standard features available on the EvaGT include ABS, ESP, Xenon headlight, satellite navigation, and the latest airbag technology, namely multi-stage 'smart' airbags.

Like other Morgan cars, the EvaGT models are made by hand in its Malvern-based sportscar specialized factory. And this British manufacturer has only made it in a limited amount of 100 units and has been produced since 2012. Morgan EvaGT has made its debut at the 2010 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance and is sold at an estimated price ranging of £70,000 to £85,000.

However, in 2012, the Company announced that its deliveries would be delayed to 2014 to allow for the use of magnesium alloy technology. The company reported that they had spent £1.4 million on such development.

In early 2013, dealers confirmed that the model had been canceled. Customer's £5000 deposits would be returned when requested or could be used for the purchase of a different model. And the model that was launched at the 2010 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance is probably the only Morgan EvaGT car ever made. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | MORGAN CAR NEWS | CLASSIC DRIVERS | WIKIPEDIA]

Jeep being developed an ultra-compact off-roader to rival Suzuki Jimny

As an automotive lover, of course, you know the Jeep brand as one of America's legendary brands. Now, it is widely heard that Jeep is currently developing a new ultra-compact off-road vehicle model that is projected to fill a slot below its Renegade. Thus this car will compete with Suzuki Jimny in the global market.

Jeep developing ultra-compact off-roader to rival Suzuki Jimny (The Jeep Modular Concept pictured here is an independent study by designer Le Yang Bai). (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2twp9el)

As revealed by the European Head of Brand Marketing, Marco Pigozzi who said that the baby Jeep was about four meters (13 feet) long, slightly longer than Jimny that had 3.64 meters (11.9 feet). "We designed this car as a daily vehicle," he said, as reported by Carscoops on Sunday, December 15, 2019.

Previously, the company has also announced that its entire line-up of car products in 2022 will carry electric powertrain. However, for this latest model, it seems impossible if the Jeep has enough power when associated with its small-size.

The car's power source is also still a mystery. But if we look at the Suzuki Jimny that will be its competitor, where the Japanese car made in India is equipped with a 1.3-liter VVT engine that bursts 83 hp of power.

(The Jeep Modular Concept pictured here is an independent study by designer Le Yang Bai). (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2twp9el)

So, most likely this car will carry two engine choices namely 1.8 liters V16 which is capable of popping up to 139 hp. While the second engine with a smaller 1.3-liter V16 capacity plus a turbocharger is capable of producing power of 150 hp. And both engine options will be combined with a five-speed manual transmission system or six-speed automatic.

But, if we look at the merger between PSA Group and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, it is also possible that this vehicle can use the Common Modular Platform architecture that is the same as the electric version of Peugeot 208, Vauxhall Corsa, and DS3 Crossback.

(The Jeep Modular Concept pictured here is an independent study by designer Le Yang Bai). (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2twp9el)

If Jeep can ensure the design of a production vehicle like the current concept model, so it's believed the car will be an exciting vehicle on the highway, like the Wrangler. Although the company has expressed its desire to present the latest model, unfortunately, the FCA as the Jeep's parent company has not released yet plans to launch this tiny Jeep model.

The question is, will this entry-level Jeep will be as popular as the latest generation of Suzuki Jimny? That's interesting to wait. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | AUTO EXPRESS | MOTOR1 | CARSCOOPS]

A fierce-looks and futuristic six-wheeled ATV

By applying technology that is not extraordinary, great ideas are developed to drive transportation forward. This can be seen as done by a Perth-based company named Ferox Advanced Vehicles Corporation when it implements some big ideas on the vehicle that is being made by it. This unusual vehicle concept briefly displays the figure of a six-wheeled ATV (All-Terrain Vehicle).

The futuristic six-wheeled fluid drive off-road vehicle named Ferox Azaris debuted at the Top Marques 2019 in Monaco. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2ElHoVU)

Well, the physical appearance of the vehicle which was later given the name 'Ferox Azaris' looks like a futuristic car that appears in science fiction films.

Remarkably, in addition to having six wheels are also equipped with the new fluid-drivetrain appliance combined with a BMW Motorrad R1200 engine in the back of its frame, with its shaft drive unit intact. And where the wheel would normally be mounted, Ferox has mounted a pump unit instead, so the motorcycle motor is entirely devoted to driving that pumps.

The Ferox Azaris pushes the limits of vehicle design and gives life to future transport. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2rX33RF)

Interviewed by CarAdvice, CEO of Ferox Advanced Vehicles, Troy Wheeler, began to explain 'fluid' and 'hydraulic' technology. "Typically hydraulics run between 3,000 and 15,000 psi. They're high-pressure, they tend to be inefficient, they need big cooling reservoirs for de-foaming, and they're very jerky," Wheeler explained.

The futuristic six-wheeled off-road vehicle named Ferox Azaris is powered by 4 electric motors on the wheels powered by a twin-cylinder BMW R1200 GS motorcycle engine. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2ElHoVU)

Wheeler also said the liquid drive material offers big savings and an electric motor equivalent to a weight of 30 kg. "The whole system is very responsive - and that is a big difference to traditional hydraulics. Usually, they are quite jerked. But our system has a high startup torque, similar to an electric motor," Wheeler said later.

As reported by Newatlas, with the use of wheels mounted directly on its four motors, the company said that Azaris will be able to handle 678 Nm of torque per wheel and there are larger motors capable of providing larger torque of up to 1,152 Nm.

Although the Azaris has not been fully tested in off-road environments, the six-wheeled vehicle prototype has driven smoothly on the rough surface testing. Currently, there are no plans to bring the Azaris to the market, so for those of you who want to bring this unique vehicle, it seems like you have to wait very long, and of course at a very expensive price.

Indeed, the production process of the Azaris is not cheap and is rumored to reach $500,000. The manufacturing process is entirely made by hand, of course making the production process slow and expensive.
This six-wheeled vehicle has made its debut at the Top Marques 2019 in Monaco which runs from 30 May to June 2, 2019. Instead of producing cars for the market, the Ferox team tried to explore further technology and find new partners to help its vehicle development. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | FEROX | NEW ATLAS | GATSBYONLINE.COM | CARADVICE]

The First street-legal F1 supercar

Driving an F1 car might have been the dream of all automotive enthusiasts in the world. But it is very difficult for us to sit behind the wheel and then drive the land jets. It seems that now the dream will soon come true. An Aussie named Zac Mihajlovic has ambitions to make a Formula 1 replica powered by Ferrari's engine that will be sold in limited quantities. Amazingly, the car can not only run on the racing circuit but can also be used on the highway (adjusted later to the roadworthy permits in the vehicle owner's country).

Zacaria Supercars on its debut at the 2019 Top Marques Monaco on May 30, 2019. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/38PDjaD)

Zac Mihajlovic is the person responsible for turning many people's dreams into reality and building the car with the help of a custom motorcycle builder named Scotty Cox. The car manufacturing process which was later given the name 'Zacaria Supercars' has been going on for almost more than 5 years.

Mihajlovic began his career in the world of car manufacturing since 1989 when he built with its street-legal Batmobile supercar based on the vehicle used in Tim Burton's Batman films. Actually, he had always received a request to make a super vehicle but was hampered due to the licensing issues.

Driven by an interest in his Batmobile, Mihajlovic began working on this F1 racing car replicas that could be driven on the streets. And he said, "So I thought, what's the next most extreme thing that I can build to drive on the streets? Nobody ever has done it with F1 cars, they have made cool things like BAC Mono or Ariel Atom, but they are 4-cylinder engined and more look like concept cars."

"If you want to drive an original F1 car, and should have a team that is needed to run it so I think about the modern V8 or V12 engine from Ferrari, maybe there is a market for people who want something that nobody else has," he said further.

The car development began by taking the 6.3-liter V12 engine which came from a Ferrari F12 Berlinetta carcass in England. The engine has been integrated into a 6-speed transaxle transmission system from Albins, the company responsible for the transmission system that used in the Australian' Supercars racing series.

Then this car's body by handmade that uses full aluminum materials and also is pinned the hydraulic lift system to make it easier to pass through damaged roads. The Zacaria SC made its debut in this year's Top Marques Monaco event back on May 30, 2019, one of the most glamorous events showcasing the world's finest automobiles.

Zac Mihajlovic, the man behind the machine and CEO of Zacaria Supercars said that he had received interest from potential buyers and hoped to sell every of the Zacaria SC that he made at a price of more than AUS $700,000 (around the US. $509,000 or Rp.10.4 billion). *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | ZACARIA SUPERCARS | GATSBYONLINE.COM]

Three Koenigsegg's hypercar concepts of #KoenigseggSketchChallenge

Koenigsegg is a famous hypercar manufacturer from Sweden. The manufacturer recently launched its latest hypercar figure named Koenigsegg Jesko at the 2019 Geneva Motor Show held last March. Recently appeared in cyberspace, many Angelholm brand' hypercar concepts.

A challenge event on social media called #KoenigseggSketchChallenge introduced by Sasha Selippanov is aimed at the world's independent automotive designers to share their vision of the Swedish marque with the world. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/35qELhq)

As we all knew, there's a challenge event called #KoenigseggSketchChallenge on social media aimed at the world's independent automotive designers to share their vision of the Swedish marque with the world. This event was introduced by the new design boss of the automotive manufacturer, Sasha Selipanov, and the challenge will end on Friday, December 20, 2019.

Even challenges like this will certainly result in many hypercars designs that feature alluring shapes, shapes that define the brand. However, there are some artists who help us imagine the possibilities that lie ahead for Koenigsegg, such as the grand tourer, the entries for the upcoming Le Mans Hypercar class and even a concept that involves lending company expertise to someone who built an SUV through the new Koenigsegg's RAW Design House.

1. Koenigsegg Sport Utility Vehicle Concept
Although the Swedish high-performance vehicle brand will never make an SUV product, as Christian von Koenigsegg, CEO Koenigsegg himself has said. But it doesn't seem to diminish the desire of a Brazilian automotive designer named Pedro Ruperto to give birth to an SUV design for the Swedish marque.

Koenigsegg SUV Concept looks like a lifted hypercar with hidden rear doors designed by Pedro Ruperto. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2YXk61Z)

It could be said as the SUV with a double-bubble roof and one that actually manages to please the eye. And of course, since there's no such thing. However, if Koenigsegg would help build a crossover, the contraption might just end up looking like a jacked-up hypercar, which means the said feature wouldn't be impossible.

2. Koenigsegg Longtail Concept
The whole concept comes from Riccardo Angelini, Lead Exterior Designer at Tata Motors (the office in Turin, Italy), which is Jaguar Land Rover's parent company - it's only normal for designers to come up with sketches that showcase toys belonging to other brands in their Instagram spare time.

By zooming in on the lines of the hypercar, which noticed that the design DNA of the Swedish brand is clearly here. Whether talking about the front end styling cues of the Le Mans prototype racer-like cabin this thing looks like a proper Koenigsegg.

While the 360-degree rear wing dominates the track version, the longtail approach is still visible with the road car. And Riccardo also talks about the hardware hidden inside the amazing aero work, noting that the Akrapovic exhaust comes in the form of titanium blades that blend in with the rest of the design.

3. Koenigsegg Grand Tourer Concept

The hypercar rendering image below was given the name 'Koenigsegg Brita RS'. And the figure of the Koenigsegg Grand Tourer concept above was born from the skilled hand scratches of an automotive designer named Mikael Lugnegård who is said to have been in the business for fifteen years. From the design of the hypercar on display, it appears as a hypercar figure with an engine mounted in front of the steering wheel. Thus it is not surprising then that this hypercar has a long hood, which is exactly what can be seen in the rendering image.

With the front-mid-engine layout adds elegance to the design. And it can be said also, that the same thing about the lean muscular area that covers the vehicle wheels. Furthermore, the cabin looks short so that at first glance gives limited visibility to a vehicle that aims to offer a practical sensation of speed. But this can be overcome if one time this car is produced later. Of course, we cannot talk about this without mentioning that such hypercar can package a three-seat layout, with this seeming to be increasingly popular lately.

Although, all car concepts above are not real, but do not rule out the possibility of the Swedish hypercar manufacturer is interested in making one of them as a real car someday. We look forward to it. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | AUTOEVOLUTION]

Looking back to 2012 Chevrolet Miray hybrid concept

About a decade ago the American automaker General Motors introduced a concept car with dual drivetrains or hybrid called the Chevrolet Miray at the 2011 Seoul Motor Show. In Korean, the Miray means 'the future.' The American giant automotive manufacturer deliberately created the Chevrolet Miray Concept not only for the prestigious automotive exhibition in the country but was also to celebrate the Chevrolet's 100th anniversary at that time.

The Chevrolet Miray hybrid concept car is a roadster sports car that is powered by two electric motors mounted on its front wheels, and each is capable of producing power of 15 kW (around 20 hp). In addition to the electric motor, this concept car is also reinforced by a four-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine with a capacity of 1,500 liters to drive the rear wheels.

Besides the combination of the two drivetrains, the Chevrolet Miray Concept also comes with a 1.6 kWh lithium-ion battery that can be recharged with a regenerative braking system. With such technology carried by, the Miray Concept can run only by using the power of its electric motors alone, when it takes increasing power, and the petrol engine can be immediately used.

This compact roadster with futuristic and unique design has dimensions of length 3,991 mm, a width of 1,865 mm, a height of 1,110 m with a wheelbase of 2,375 mm. While the appearance of his body implies a thick sporty feel with dynamic curves. The Mi-Ray body design is said to be inspired by the company's classic cars such as the 1963 Monza SS and the 1962 Corvair Super Spyder.

This roadster car has a roof that can be opened, then use the scissor-type doors, and equipped with an aerodynamic body like today's fighter aircraft. And in some parts of the body such as spoilers have utilized carbon fiber material while for the Miray' legs use 20-inch wheels on the front and 21-inch wheels at the rear.

Like other concept cars, until now there has been no information whether the Chevrolet Mi-Ray concept car will be mass-produced, it looks like this car will remain just one of GM's show cars. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | AUTOEVOLUTION]

Gordon Murray T.50 supercar with rear-mounted fan

As we all knew, Gordon Murray was the key person behind the birth of the iconic supercar of McLaren F1. And currently, the world's renowned automotive designer is developing the driver-oriented supercar and all carried out through his owned company, the Gordon Murray Automotive. The car is known as the T.50 and claimed to be the lightest supercar ever.

The T.50 Supercar by Gordon Murray Automotive aimed to be "the last and greatest" analog supercar ever built. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/36A8h4x)

And some time ago, Gordon Murray Automotive offered a new look at its T.50 supercar, which was said to be the spiritual successor of the famous McLaren F1 Murray.

The company also outlined details about one of the vehicle's most interesting features, namely the fan system at the rear. Look like the T.50 design is taken inspiration from the Brabham BT46B Formula 1 car with a giant fan at the rear.

Formula 1 design legend Gordon Murray's all-new T.50 supercar will incorporate fan car technology inspired by his controversial 1978 Brabham BT46B. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2Ph3Cyv)

This feature offers a massive improvement in terms of aerodynamics. To get the right aerodynamic factor, the automaker has a partnership with the Racing Point Formula One Team to use the rolling-road wind tunnel of their-owned and get assistance from the engineers there.

It is claimed that the 15.75-inch (400 millimeters) sized-fan feature accelerates the airflow as it passes through the rear diffuser. It uses a vertically installed intake duct to prevent the fan from picking up road debris. Then there is also the ventilations which direct the air downward to cool the powertrain oil. For further aerodynamic adjustment, there are two active wings on the back that can bend upward to increase downforce or flatten to reduce drag.

"What we do when the fan fires up, and we want more downforce at lower speeds, is we open the slot and spool the fan up to the maximum, and we remove all the dirty air and the boundary layers, and that means that the air has to follow the surface. It's forced to follow the surface to fill the vacuum left there," Murray said as quoted of Road & Track.

The T.50 Supercar by Gordon Murray Automotive also claimed as the most advanced aerodynamics seen on a road car. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/36A8h4x)

This sophisticated active aero system is operated in various modes. The most hardcore setting is the Vmax Mode which places the duct and fan in a low-drag setting and uses the 48-volt integrated starter-generator to increase engine output to 700 horsepower (522 kilowatts). There is also a high-downforce configuration when the driver wants to stick to the road.

The T.50 supercar packs a Cosworth-built naturally aspirated 4.0-liter V12 that produces 650 hp (485 kW) and 332 pound-feet (450 Newton-meters) of torque. The powerplant can run all the way to 12,100 rpm. The output runs through a six-speed manual to the rear wheels. A carbon-fiber monocoque and body panels keep the weight down to 2,161 pounds (980 kilograms).

The T.50 supercar models being developed by the company include the road-legal and racing-purposed models. And the road-legal supercar model will be limited to 100 units. As for the racing model, only 25 units will be produced. Similar to the McLaren F1, the T.50 will be a three-seater with a central driving position to get the maximum power weight to ratio.

Although there is no exact date regarding the production schedule, currently the company only said that the T.50 will have a full debut in May 2020. While the selling price range is estimated to reach $3.14 million (approx Rp.44.1 billion) for a road-legal model. As for the racing model, it will cost $3.19 million (approx Rp.44.8 billion).

A steampunk motorcycle inspired by an old Soviet Union' train

The concept or idea of ​​modification to create a cool motorcycle to look different can come from anywhere. Even ideas can come from unexpected things and even the concepts they carry are diverse, ranging from unique, classic to modern concepts.

The Stalin Trike steampunk-style motorcycle built by Asook Customs. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2E1SGhT)

So not infrequently the creative ideas of the modifiers can change the motorcycle appearance that was originally mediocre to be more unique.

Like this modified steampunk motorcycle called the Stalin Trike made by Asook Customs, the Saint-Petersburg-based motorcycle builder is inspired by the Soviet Union's classic train. Just an info, in its hey day the train was able to run up to speeds of 110 miles per hour or around 160 km per hour.

The Soviet Union's train is the source of inspiration for the steampunk-styled Stalin Trike. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2E1SGhT)

As reported by Ride Apart, that the modified steampunk motorcycle inspired by Josep Stalin's era locomotive applied two wheels at the front and one wheel at the back with the selection of small-diameter tires. While the fairing section is made in such a way that it resembles the design of the steam furnace of the classic train, by the design of the swooping line that surrounds the headlight like a veil, and combined the image of two large red stars on the front-wheels.

Front view of the Stalin Trike custom built by Asook Customs. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2E1SGhT)

What's interesting about this modification is the overall appearance of the body, which may have never been on the market before. Like the handlebars or steering that serves to control the two front wheels by using the lever with a vertical grip.

Right side view of the Stalin Trike custom built by Asook Customs. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2E1SGhT)

Unfortunately, there is no information about the engine that carried this motorbike. Only mentioned that the engine is made of elements of an aircraft radial motor. By design, it rotates the rear wheel through a horizontal bar, like an old steam locomotive. It looks incredibly cool, but unfortunately does not work well. It is unknown whether this three-wheeled vehicle roadworthy and can be used as befits a motorcycle in general.

Top view of the Stalin Trike custom built by Asook Customs. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2E1SGhT)

Although inspired by a fast steam train, the modifier did not design this three-wheeled motorcycle to ride at high speed. And this modification is clearly only focused on a unique look and to show it has a complicated design. This is inseparable as proof of the manifestation of creative modification with concepts whose basic ideas are taken from the great history of the Soviet Union.

At least, this motorcycle modification can give an idea to automotive lovers, especially the modifiers, as well as to show that the sources of inspiration of something unique can be taken from anywhere and even of the simple things.

Kept spur your adrenaline on the power of the two-wheeled monster and stay alive with true safety riding. May God will forgive Your sins and so does the cops..... *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | INAZUMACAFE | MOTORIDERSUNIVERSE | RIDEAPART]

The possibility of the Miura appearance if was built back

Lamborghini Miura is one of the most beautiful and exotic cars ever made by Lamborghini in the 20th century. So it's no exaggeration if there are automotive designers who try to design Miura in a contemporary and modern look, in accordance with current conditions. Well, that's what was done by a Brazilian automotive designer named Pedro Ruperto.

A modern interpretation of 2025 Lamborghini Miura by Pedro Ruperto. (Picture from: http://bit.ly/2E1rVKg)

From the rendering image, it looks like Ruperto still retains some of the original shapes and gives touches in some of its details. Like the fascia, the Miura bumper looks sharper similar to the current Lamborghini car styles. This is in contrast to the shape of the original car which looks more curved.

There are striking changes that could be seen in the shape of the headlights that originally were rounded. Only in Ruperto's hands, the design of the headlights changed completely by using the thin LEDs. Other changes are also seen by removing mirrors that were on both sides of the car's windshield.

Other changes are also seen by removing mirrors that were on both sides of the car's windshield. Now, the mirrors are replaced by a pair of cameras mounted on a shark fin-shaped parts and mounted on the front wheel arches.

Then the appearance of the side skirt also changes completely with the installation of a new model of air intakes which makes it look more aggressive. However, the front hood still shows the ventilation just like the previous version of Miura and only the models are slightly different.

As we already know that this Lamborghini Miura is a supercar that was designed by Marcello Gandini, and was produced in the period 1966-1972. The Lamborghini Miura was made in a limited number of 764 units worldwide. The following video is about one of the classic Lamborghini Miura that has ever existed.

This raging bull's supercar carried a 3,929 cc naturally aspirated mid-engine and has an ability to spew power reaching 380 horsepower @ 7,850 rpm and torque of 400 Nm @ 5,750 rpm which combined with the 5-speed manual transmission system. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | PEDRO RUPERTO ON BEHANCE | GRANDTOURNATION]
