      The collection features electric vehicles that cater to road use, racing, utility, adventure, and air travel.

      Scale models can be seen at EPCOT in Florida’s Walt Disney World Resort.

      A peek into the future of transportation often begins not with current vehicles but with the innovative ideas conceived in design studios. GM has exemplified this by unveiling five bold concepts that cover a range of vehicles from tough off-road EVs to aerial transport. These images released via GM Design’s Instagram provide a rare insight into the company's imaginative process.

      These designs are not intended for production; rather, they serve to explore new ideas across various categories, including road, racing, utility, adventure, and VTOL vehicles. Without the need for physical prototypes, the design teams utilized digital renderings and detailed scale models to manifest their concepts.

      A Sports Car Without a Windshield

      First up is the P1, an open-air sports car featuring a tub-like body and exposed wheels, reminiscent of the modern competitor to the 1996 Ford Indigo concept. This model has no windshield, showcasing a central driving position with two bench seats in front of a small cargo area. Its minimalist design includes slim LED lights at both ends and a pronounced chin.

      Next is the P2, a low-profile EV designed for aerodynamic efficiency. Its front window is sharply angled, leading to a sleek roofline that tapers into a slightly recessed rear. Despite its longer frame, it features just two upward-hinged doors. Side decals suggest onboard technology, hinting at an “AI. Pilot” system purported to handle driving tasks.

      Following that is the P3, or Utility Concept, which takes a more practical approach. Consider it a distant evolution of today’s compact hatchbacks and crossovers. Its wheels, adorned with aerodynamic covers, are positioned at the edges of the monovolume body. The colored glass area is complemented by metallic blades, giving it a somewhat futuristic appearance.

      Off-road Experiment

      The P4 shifts gears yet again, venturing into rugged realms. This electric off-roader boasts a capsule-like body elevated on large, heavily treaded tires. With minimal overhangs and ample ground clearance, its features include a pronounced windshield angle, full-width LED lighting, surfboard-carrying roof rails, and body-matching side glass.

      Lastly, the P5 is a flying vehicle engineered for vertical take-offs and landings (VTOL). Shaped like an oversized drone, it has two sets of fans and a flat floor, while its main body incorporates design elements similar to the other concepts.

      Overall, GM’s latest concept lineup seems more suited for a video game or science fiction film than reality. Nevertheless, this represents the joy of designing without constraints.

      See Them At Disney

      Scale models of all five concepts are on display at EPCOT theme park, located within Florida’s Walt Disney World Resort. General Motors is the official vehicle sponsor of the location and has recently introduced an updated Test Track ride for guests.
