(from Hamann Press
Release) HAMANN -Motorsport presents the “memoR” based on the
McLaren MP4-12 c
HAMANN - Motorsport,
points to the 82. Geneva Motor Show as a world premiere for the
first time the "memoR", based on the McLaren MP4-12 c.
Design added value for a
polarizing supercar
At its release, the
McLaren MP4-12C in the industry and in the world blogger community
learned a contradictory picture – its optical performance is also in
the judgement of the local English press so not in line with his
razor-sharp handling, superior performance and the class standard
for quality.
All too often, its design has been criticized as too arbitrary and
too little on its own. "Evoraesque" was his appearance and not in
line with his high-tech - carbon chassis. An ideal base for the
HAMANN design team: When it comes to recognize the potential nature
of a supercar, and precisely to redefine, the style gurus from the
swebian Laupheim are a safe Bank: a synthesis of race heritage,
brand identity, and avant-garde design features have it transformed
the newcomers from Woking in a real EyeCatcher and helped him to the
adequate performance, which is a prerequisite in the League of the
mid-engine sports car: The presence of uniqueness.
The idea
In-depth analysis lead
managers in the fields of marketing, sales, and design development
agreed fairly quickly: an automobile of the calibre of F1 1995 must
be from the MP4-12 c, who must hide behind the relevant known
devices of Italian origin and is able to keep those of other British
athletes with due distance at a distance his charisma on the road.
With a sharp eye were the reasons for the creative areas of subjects
out antomizes and explores the appropriate measures as the somewhat
titchy acting flounder could become a serious competitor for adults:
The measures
1. Reduction
of the concave surfaces
2. Implantation of the essential features of the F1
3. Aesthetic-functional adaptation of GT3 elements
4. Creating a relief with exciting light shade contrasts
The impact
A crucial source of mix
up of the MP4-12 c with other smaller athletes from England is the
excessive surface definition with concave elements. What appears
initially to offer the advantage of optical lightness, proposes to
here quickly the impression of hollowness, instability and rowdy
attitude. As soon as the border of the front air intakes, the cross
section of the hood, the rear side panel and the sill area were
dismissed from the Hamann-gym looked the volume of the whole even
more after man car.
But to make sure, that
the impression of concentrated power always reminded a fully
January, the brilliant lines of the LeMans winner 1995 were
interpreted now so new, that they just as far as the brand identity
remembered that modernity and avant-garde of the “memoR” never for
consideration is available - on these perfect swing can you simply
not resign.
The irresistible mix of
spectacular aerodynamic vents and guiding surfaces together with the
closed circular silhouette precisely the tension creates one to
burst tensioning the muscle, like in the full volume of extended
wheel arches that barely cover the huge forged wheels or the sinewy
hoods Tower, at the same time representing a defusing of the
dangerous wiper edges in the event of a collision of passers-by.
The large front
splitter, the upper and side wheel arch forced vents, the lateral
deep drawn down ground effect door sills and the extended rear
diffuser give not only the consistent racing look in combination
with the large rear wing, but ensure also the necessary aerodynamic
balance and the welcome pressure for a plus of G-force and
ultimately the functional added value of this aesthetically
compelling concept.
The bottom line
HAMANN would not HAMANN
but if not still that of refinement would be the luminaries of
customizing, they have been the Decade ends to drive the concept of
individualization to the extreme:
The subtle C pillar, which falls for is taken not in the eye
produces a huge effect: the rear fender is perceived now from the
rear window up to the wheel arch as a member of the monster wide and
even though also the silhouette is soft closed, a spectacular
increase in the perceived width of the stern, which crowns the rear
end in conjunction with the diffusor-page boxes, which consistently
continues the lines of the side sills to the rear and the triple
exhaust arises: Who sees the “memoR” from behind, and that should be
a majority of mobile contemporaries, has no doubt what he is really
the more: A distinctive member of the League of fastest and
breathtaking supercar from the house of Hamann.
