Mazda Furai concept

Furai, qui signifie "bruit du vent", pousse le concept Mazda Nagare un peu plus loin car elle se traduit par un concept-car basé sur une voiture de course "American Le Mans Series" (ALMS). La voiture utilise le châssis C65 de la société Courage qui courrait dans la série ALMS il y a à peine deux saisons. La puisance de 450ch est fournie par un moteur à trois rotors fonctionnant à l'éthanol produit en partenariat avec BP.

La peinture orange-sur-mat-noir est inspirée de la livrée de la Mazda 787B, la seule japonaise jamais vainqueur des 24 heures du Mans, en 1991.

Furai, which means “sound of the wind”, takes Mazda’s Nagare design language a step further as it is translated into a concept car based on an American Le Mans Series (ALMS) race car. The car utilizes the Courage C65 chassis the company campaigned in the ALMS series only two seasons ago. Power comes courtesy of a 450bhp three-rotor rotary engine running on ethanol produced in partnership with BP.

The orange-on-matt-black paintjob is inspired by the livery of the Mazda 787B, the only ever Japanese winner of the Le Mans 24 Hour back in 1991.
