GFG STYLE 2030: “A CELEBRATIO­N OF OFF-ROAD AND FULL ELECTRIC MODE DRIVING”

- Ilona Catani Scarlett

GFG Style unveiled its new Electric Hyper SUV dedicated to Saudi Arabia. The name “2030” evokes the great ‘vision2030’ project involving the Arab state. Saudi Arabia’s economy is in fact moving towards a radical transforma­tion: less oil, more industry and more space for foreigners in the tourism sector. Designers Giorgetto and Fabrizio Giugiaro have chosen to dedicate this research project to Saudi Arabia in the form of a super highperfor­ming sports car: a 2 door, 2 seat, full-electric, 4-wheel all-terrain drive Hyper SUV. Fabrizio Giugiaro outlines its features: “We modelled the 2030 on a carbon fibre body and aluminium frame, with super-sporty lines but also designed as a celebratio­n of off-road and full electric mode driving: I believe the architectu­re is rich in content and it’s perfect for the needs of this incredible, extraordin­ary territory at this particular moment in time”. Giorgetto Giugiaro adds: “The inspiratio­n for our design came from the territory and its evolution: simple, clean, sleek lines, like the desert itself, but able to excite; so an aggressive, distinctiv­e front, a majestic, well-balanced rear, sides with sinuous lines without frills but able to convey emotion. A car conceived for fast driving on a desert track, perhaps where the skyline of Riyadh can be glimpsed with its strong technologi­cal image with an eye to the future, just like the 2030. One fun fact, the body colours of the 2030 could, of course, only be mirrored green and carbon black: those of the Saudi Arabian flag.
