2005 Mitsuoka Orochi Nude Top Roadster - AllCarIndex

The ‘Orochi Nude Top Roadstar’ is a new design proposal that expands the frame of the conventional ‘Orochi’. There are many reasons for loving and for selecting a car. These include specifications, driving performance, environmental performance, new technologies and how well the vehicle matches your lifestyle. However, one other key reason is ‘design’.

Isn`t it fair to say that ‘design’ is one of the simplest and easiest to understand reasons? Some designs just seem cool and leave a powerful impression. These designs move your spirit and sensibilities in a way that can only be described as ‘love at first sight’.

Our design approach is to vividly and directly appeal to one`s sight, spirit and sensitivity. The ‘Orochi Nude Top Roadster’ exemplifies how this new approach is taking form. We applied a more open design and gull-wing doors to the previous road-version prototype ‘Orochi’. The name ‘nude top’
is well suited for this beautiful and stylish design.

We even went so far as to not attach any side mirrors in order to create a daring design that would bring forth this new ‘Orochi’. We hope that you will take a close look at this unique design.

Commercial Vehicle – ‘Orochi’

We have redone the chassis and body panels for the commercial ‘Orochi’ currently being developed and various other preparations are being made for the start of testing.

We have had many inquiries from customers eagerly awaiting the new ‘Orochi’. All of our employees have been working hard together with an unwavering purpose in order to realize commercialization of this car. We would like to ask these loyal customers to wait just a little bit longer.

Our company president Akio Mitsuoka will be attending our press conference scheduled for October 19 (from 3:55 p.m.). He will provide more details on the progress in developing the new ‘Orochi’, as well as some of the specifications that will have been determined by that time. In the meantime, we sincerely hope that you will stop by the Mitsuoka Motor`s booth at the Tokyo Motor show.
