2006 Sivax Izana
(from Sivax Press Release) IZANA - SIVAX Original Concept Car for Paris Motor Show 2006
CONCEPT
As its fourth project making a world premiere --following the GENO,
KIRA, and Xtile --- Sivax presents the IZANA. The IZANA is a
high-end coupe designed with a novel, unprecedented aesthetic. A
fusion of the lines of traditional coupes and elements of Japan@s
classical culture, and a pursuit of higher quality for sophisticated
men and women -- brought together, these led to the creation of the
IZANA. The blending of different cultures succeeded in a coupe of a
completely new form. Sivax, with its approach to design,
consistently creates new.
IZANA is named after a god in Japan`s mythology, "Izanaginomikoto,"
who is known as the creator of the ancient Japanese islands and the
father of many gods. The name IZANA was chosen to signify our
company`s commitment to being a carrozzeria in Japan, to continue
creating outstanding designs and models.
DESIGN
IZANA`s style has unique qualities enabled by the redefinition of
balance and other characteristics that any coupe should inherit from
the designs of its predecessors. The basic idea for its unrestrained
lines and the for the choice of rear wheels being larger than the
front ones is taken from Japan`s classical vehicle, the jinrikisha.
With an elegant but vivacious silhouette, IZANA is reminiscent of an
animal about to leap. As it combines the dynamic form with
fine-featured lamp treatment that hints of kabuki makeup, IZANA
expresses both contained strength and flamboyance. The large
gull-wing doors tempt the driver to make a run into a different and
undiscovered world.
The IZANA interior offers a unique atmosphere suggesting reliability
and grace as soft and natural-tesxture leather blends with copper
surfaces in an armor motif. The impressive interior space glows
warmly as light coming in through the glass roof and reflects off
the copper and splendidly matched leather.
