The SOFIA sedan is designed to be powered by a hybrid powertrain. That includes a V-8 engine with a front or rear-wheel drive system, capable of gushing out 400 hp of power. Like the other hybrids we can expect an optional hybrid system to add another 100 hp to the score using lithium-polymer batteries. As mentioned by the firm, an electrical alternator/actuator setup is also possible.
The I.DE.A. Institute that claims to handle every stage of the product development cycle from an initial sketch on up to prototype production, brings from its studio the all-new SOFIA concept. The four-seater sedan that, according to the Italian design house, is inspired by the female form carries an exciting look and curvy body styling. We don't have much to tell you about the car as its just a design concept but yes, I.DE.A. does provide an insight into what their design is capable of withstanding.
"SOFIA is a concentration of sportiness and elegance,” I.DE.A said in a statement. "The curves are graceful, the lines smooth and supple, the shape and profile are as enchanting and alluring as a female figure. Sculpted lines emphasize the front and rear wings with the bird's eye view showing off the car's hourglass figure."
That's actually the reason why we did not wish to miss it during our Geneva coverage. SOFIA measures 200.6 inches long and has 120.6 inches of wheelbase.
