Artists of the Day, September 10, 2022: Concept cars designers that did not make it to production (#1644)

 Some concept cars preview production models. Others are, quite literally, production models posing as design studies with bigger wheels and cameras in lieu of mirrors.

But sometimes a concept is just that: a concept. An experimental prototype fueled by passion, built for fun and displayed for attention.

While we can’t change the past, here are some of the concept cars from the 1970s and the 1990s we think would have made an impact had they reached production.
