Kinda batmobile meets something James Bond would have

 

The back end is completely not what I expected. Very wagonish. I'd own one.

 

not bad, not bad.

 

This will never be made. That being said, I would buy it. I really like how they are pushing the design envelope. Sure, some of this may seem outlandish, but I could see the instrument panel in the steering wheel (that always stays level). The rear seat/couch is bada**!

Just remember, this is just a concept to show off Scion's alter/counter/etc design philosophy. They are making something that will only appeal to a select audience. Hence, making it exclusive & cool.

Who knows what will come down the road? Yet, I'd grab the keys to that in a minute!

 

I'm hoping that the production version looks something like this, just less bulky . . . otherwise I like the dramatic styling.

Oh, and a more powerful stock engine . . . somehow the extra power seems more palatable when it's part of the vehicle cost and not an add-on.

 

It's a nice little coupe! I like it! It has some very nice featuers to it like color-changing headlights and exhaust tips, a pull-out bench in the rear, and my favorite, the color-changing emblem.

Can't wait to see it this friday at the NY auto show!!

 

wow, scion just can't stay away from american designs, sure it's suppose to be an american brand, but it's toyota!

I can see the C 300, the Charger, and the already used t2B.
Absolutely dissapointing, but scion is good at that.

 

Life size revamp version of the t2B coupe


Those doors somewhat mimics the Toyota Sera

 

I love that car!!!! The blind spot has got to go, but other that, this thing ROCKS!!!!!!

 

I'm not 100% a fan of it, BUT I like the feel. It's modern, slick and clean with a hint of old school gangster.

 

old school gangster. lol

 

Just a hint, not as much as the 300c.

 

Just a hint , not as much as the 300c.

 

I'm generally not a fan of "boxy" styling, I have to say that car looks really nice. The C-pillars need to be dropped in favor of something more feasible in a production model though. Interior is sweet as hell. As awesome as it is, I doubt the media center would make it to production because so many states have laws against video screens in view of the driver. Unless it's disabled while the car is in motion.

 

Who else here thinks it's ugly?

I find it a corruption of all that is "sporty." How can Scion call that an icon of Scion sports in the future? With all those features it's got to be extraordinarily heavy and it certainly does not look slim so the body panels and whatnot have got to put some extra weight onto the car. Imagine throwing 3500 lbs through a mountain road. It'll take some extra stiff suspension to keep that sucker on the pavement.

Hood scoop, big grill, whatever. It's an automatic. I know some of the fastest cars in the world are automatics but having a computer shift for you takes the sport away from a sports car. Unless the car is going over 200 mph then I don't see any reason the enthusiast driver shouldn't shift for himself. I can't see any sport in automatics. Even if it goes fast... a 300C can go pretty fast but I think very few would agree that it's a sports car.

In all, I feel the FUSE is a perversion of all that is sporty.


It IS a nice car though :D If ugly.

 

look at the interior! gorgeous!!!!

 

alright, it took me a while but i finally figured it out... i've seen this exterior design before - or rather, designs before...
here's how i see the Fuse: t2b front end with a (nissan azeal + nissan sport concept) rear
sorry scion, not too original...
and that goes for the interior as well -- the t2b and the toyota F3R interiors were much more creative

 

 

ummm doesnt look too much of a copy to me . the tc is more of a copy car than the fuse ever will be.

 

I think it looks alright. It's got a nice wide stance and agressive looks. The interior... I'm not so much a fan of. Too much silver. Kinda looks tacky. The driver's display looks kinda cool though. It's like the last Celica's display, but more evolved and futuristic. If they could just get that cockpit feeling in that car with an HUD on the windshield, add a factory turbo/blower, make sure it's lighter than the tC, and make it cheap, I think it would be a great car.
