Chery Automobile has just lifted the veil on a very intriguing concept car dubbed the Gene, designed to explore the carmaker's future design language.
Looking unlike any other vehicle on four wheels, the Gene takes the form of a large SUV with a futuristic exterior that combines some classic and retro touches. The front of the concept may be the first element that catches your eye, thanks to the prominent LED light bar and illuminated Chery logo.
Positioned just above and below the light bar are gloss black accents, giving the vehicle a bit of a Robocop vibe. The front bumper also supports a dramatic aerodynamic splitter. The bold design choices made are particularly visible at the sides.
Most of the bodywork is finished in a shade of matte silver, but the pillars and roof are clad in gloss black. For example, the front quarter panels are slightly more than the front doors. Chrome accents are also visible on the rocker panels, while the black and white wheels with a solid spoke design also make a statement.
Chery's designers also made some bold decisions with the rear three-quarter panels of the SUV, in particular with the thick C-pillars. Rounding out the striking exterior design is a large LED taillight complete with black accents not dissimilar to the front fascia.
Gene concept also features an electric skateboard and two drones that can be synchronized to the vehicle and offer passengers an immersive VR experience.
The interior of the concept is also noteworthy. In the standard Real mode, drivers can use the futuristic steering wheel to drive the SUV. However, when the Gene is switched into Meta mode, the steering wheel folds away, the seats recline, and autonomous driving technologies take over. Despite the size of the concept, it only offers seating for four occupants.
