(from Italdesign Press Release) A car with a decidely sporty setup, as the Parcour, but designed for all weather conditions, for all situations, could not fail to have an opent-top version.
The setup is very
similar to that of a coupé but in this case the style has been
redesigned starting with the engine, to enhance the sporty spirit
even further; in fact, in this version there is no interruption in
the continuity between the passenger compartment and the engine
compartment.
To make up for the absence of a roof, the front and rear pillars
have been strengthened with carbon fibre; they not only play an
aerodynamic role but also act as a roll-bar, to guarantee the safety
of occupants if the car overturns.
The front pillars illustrate the distinctiveness: each one consists
of two distinct and separate elements: "this way it has a double
dimension compared with a coupé, to ensure the appropriate
sturdiness of the roll-bar but, thanks to the fact that they are
made up of two separate elements, the driver can see through them
and the blind spot is drastically reduced, guaranteeing optimal
visibility".
