Renault has a futuristic ‘Gran Turismo’ concept car too

Share

The Nissan GT-R and Chevy’s Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo are about to get some fresh company thanks to French automaker Renault. The Alpine Vision Gran Turismo is the latest Gran Turismo 6 ride turned concept vehicle, and weighing in at around 1,984 pounds (900 kilograms) it’s lighter than a 2015 Dodge Dart by over 1,200 pounds. Let that sink in for a minute. Okay, still with us? It’s rocking a 450 horsepower engine mid-rear, a 199MPH top speed and a rad set of air brakes you can see in the video below. Renault teases that some of the tech from the concept will make it to Alpine’s 2016 production model — which, as Autoblog notes, would be its first since 1995. Should you want a peek at the car in person, it’s stationed throughout France until early next month. After that, it’s doing laps in Gran Turismo 6 as a free download i​n March.
