Design

Exterior

The exterior of the Miray is made of carbon fiber and has an angled groove on the side that lighted underneath it.[1] It has LED headlights and a dual port grill.[1] At the rear, there are retractable flaps that give the vehicle additional airflow.[1] The concept has aluminum-carbon fiber composite wheels that are 20 inches in the front and 21 inches in the back.[1] Occupants enter the vehicle through scissor doors.[1]

Interior

The interior is composed of brushed aluminum, natural leather, white fabric, and liquid metal materials.[1] A projected instrument panel shows the performance of the Miray. The cockpit was inspired by the Chevrolet Corvette.[1]

Functionality

Instead of traditional side mirrors, rearview cameras emerge from the side windows while a front-facing camera shows real-time video that is overlaid on the GPS navigation.[2]

gollark: Although vector graphics would often be nicer, they're not always practical.
gollark: It's perfectly fine for other things where you can get nice small images with little perceptible quality loss.
