The Qoros 9 Sedan Concept is Designed by an Intern

It took an intern from Qoros to envision a potential 9 Sedan concept which may see itself sit on top of the firm's range. The 29-year-old Korean Jihoon Seo, spent five months in Shanghai with Qoros' designers as part of an internship program. 

 

After which he was asked to create a flagship sedan concept which envisions the car in the year 2020. The brief also suggested that the target audience would be 40-50 year-old professionals living in a modern metropolitan city.

 

The vehicle was imagined with a trapezoidal front grille featuring a chrome surround and LED xenon headlamps and fog lamps. The tail lamps too get the LED treatment. Cameras replace the conventional side mirrors and the sloping roofline makes the 9 Sedan concept look amazingly refined. 

 

A 1:4.5 scale clay model was recently presented at the Coventry University Degree Show showing several visual cues borrowed from the Qoros 3 Sedan and Hatch but also some design themes that would be suitable for a future model.
