Meet United Nude Lo-res electric car: Stunning UFO design with no doors, no windows!

Imagine what the Lamborghini Countach would look like if it were designed for a 1970s video game. An angular collection of pixels perhaps. Or the UN Lo-Res. The creator of this bizarre electric car United Nude says the Countach is the inspiration and the 70s games its aesthetic. And hence the world has a 'low-resolution Countach' designed by UN founder Rem D.Koolhaas. Based on an abstract, low-resolution version of the Italian wedge supercar, the concept vehicle is one of four prototypes commissioned by the footwear company for promotional purposes. It was also put up for auction last year.

The Lo-Res does not have any doors or windows per se, but a canopy made of 12 tinted polycarbonate panels which provide the occupants a 360-degree view of the outside. It does have light bars at the front-rear, likely serving as head and tail lamps.
The Lo-Res uses a steel tube-frame chassis with black-finished metal covers for the wheels. It's propelled by a KDS 5 kW electric motor paired with a single-speed transmission that sends power to the rear wheels. On the front, it gets disc brakes.

The canopy is remote-controlled, and when opened reveals fixed tandem seats fashioned out of polished metal and covered in ribbed black upholstery. The cabin is intriguing but the highlight has got to be the hexagonal steering wheel and the polished instrument panel containing two digital displays.
The concept car was listed for sale on Bring a Trailer in October 2021 at a starting bid of $45,000 (approximately Rs 37.1 lakh). Sure, it is interesting to look at and perhaps you'd like to place it in your garage if you already have six-seven functional cars and a stash of cash that has no other use in the household. It is pretty much an electric cart underneath a fancy clamshell.
