The Future is Here and Now

As the time counts down to this year’s Tokyo Motor Show, we get more and more teasers of what’s to come – one of those teasers is the beautiful Mazda Kai Concept. With some similarities to the RX-Vision Concept (released at the 2015 Tokyo Motor Show), the Kai is edgy, sleek and a large amount of personality. What stands out for me the most here is the genuinely gorgeous aesthetic of the side panels. The surface pulls in after the front wheel arch and is dragged back out to house the rear wheels – the way this plays with the lighting is never going to stop putting a smile on my face. An honorable mention is the dazzling roof on the Mazda Kai. The windshield curves at the top, to continue down the roof, splitting in the center giving way to an aerodynamic body sculpture which once again adds to the clean and sharp look of the Kai. Having to wait until the Tokyo Motor Show, we’re going to have to hold out until then, but this hatchback motor is certainly raising a lot of eyebrows in interest to see more.
