Car design is an incestuous, interwoven and highly self-absorbed business, where designers find their influences and self-expression funnelled through the immovable diktats of brand cohesion. The Triumph TR25 concept car shown here stands gloriously apart from corporate intransigence. Designed by London-based automotive consultancy Makkina to celebrate its 25th anniversary, the TR25 is a spectacular ‘what-if’, a vision of an alternative future that might – just might – come to pass.
