2004 DC Design Go - AllCarIndex

The DC ‘GO’ is third in the series of presentation of styling and prototyping skills of DC Design at the Geneva Motor Show, following the positive reviews that they received for the DC’ Infidel’ and the DC ‘Gaia’.

DC Design’s latest baby is powered by the much acclaimed Noble M12 GTR 3.

The DC ‘GO’ aptly named given is an effort by DC Design to provide a very modern, svelte new look to compliment the brilliant performance of the car.

The exterior is very sharp, a mix between classic cues and fresh angles. The interior is very geometric, minimalism covered in sporty Alacantra.

This design is representative of a typical sports car construction of this genre of a body skin mounted on a tubular frame. The option of material for the body panels can be metal, FRP or carbon fibre based on the performance and the price segment of the car.

The DC ‘GO’ is being showcased as part of DC Design’s international design portfolio at the 74th Geneva International Motor Show.
