Mandate

To design and fully develop the new Magnum MK5 ultra-light supercar model in collaboration with their team.

Objectives

With a rich heritage in racing car manufacturing, our client Magnum Cars entrusted us with the mission of designing and developing the body and interior of their new ultra-light supercar model. Their passion for innovation, performance and motor racing excellence combined with our expertise in automotive design and manufacturing processes was key to the success of this challenge. Our main issue was to imagine a vehicle expressing the speed and agility of a race car combined with the stance and refinement of a supercar, without the high cost of either.
