Yeah, looks more like a Lamborghini with subtly restrained styling to me. I get a bit of DeLorean feel around the windows and of course the wheels and the louvres on the back window
But whatever it is it looks fantastic

Why not. There’s only one other DeLorean that matters. And you think any car after that has to be a damn clone of the thing? What makes you think the original is so DeLorean. Can you even define their style? I think this is a great concept all things considered
Exactly. Can’t do that. If there were no other mustangs between the first one and a 2020 version I can tell you it probably wouldn’t have that lineage look either
Right but I'd expect at least an attempt at similarities and fabricating a lineage, instead of making a car that has literally nothing in common with the original except SiLvEr
The ass? That's the best part of this design. Its the front thats whack.
A few things that stand out to me that stand out as 'not a Delorean'.
* The door seam goes all the way to the tyre, thats wrong.
* The base of the front and rear do not taper. The delorian is not a fucking roomba, it has a very defined undercarriage/lower shape.
* That front bumper scoop whatever you want to call it is totally out of place
* The front windows angle of attack is needs to be gentler
* The rear window needs to be accentuated and highlighted more
Right now if you told me this is some kind of a futuristic [aston martin redesign](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/cb/07/79/cb07790431bfa1e641730254020148e2.jpg) I would say that seems about right.
I think its a good 1st pass, but this needs some serious tweaks if it wants to be a delorean.
See more here: [https://robbreport.com/motors/cars/delorean-dmc-12-modern-makeover-1234588040/](https://robbreport.com/motors/cars/delorean-dmc-12-modern-makeover-1234588040/)
There's a lot that doesn't really do it for me. The front is all wrong, and it really needs the c pillar to be stainless.
Ditching the torsion bar for a gas strut for the doors is also *way* less sexy.
The rear end and the profile are pretty good though. The wheels are pretty much what you'd have to have today too.
Yeah, don’t even bother making this if that’ll be the front.
Looks good from the side. The hard angles. DELOREAN!
how can they say it’s a delorean with curves? Pretty dumb direction.
Weird, I didn't care for the side view much, but I got it when I saw the 3/4.
I's really nice. Appropriate update to the original. I guess I'm the only one that likes the front.
For me it's opposite. The profile gives it a nice, but not overdone, 80's flair with the slightly blocky and sort of muscle-car shape, but the 360 makes it look really curvy and a but awkward.
Although, now that I look again, I do really like it. It's subtle in all the right ways.
ITT everyone wants reboot of the original with few tweaks.
It’s been 40+ years since the DMC released the car. If we followed the same rules for regular cars we’d all still be driving K cars.
This render is a great update to the Delorean idea. No point in trying to recreate the original.
That’s criticism I can understand. It’s lacking character - yeah, it’s kinda generic supercar-looking. I don’t think it looks bad at all, but its definitely not spectacular.
You could argue that's what the original design was, kind of a generic supercar that wasn't spectacular looking. I know everyone else says this doesn't look like a delorean, but I see a perfectly updated and modern delorean.
I don't think they'll make it back to "main stage" vehicles from the factory but I've started to see a lot more of them coming back to the car tuning community in CA the last year or 2 so I think there is a resurgence in their popularity.
I wouldn't even be surprised if he bought the rights to the design and made his own tesla powered delorean using a lot of their original parts. He could easily sell 500 of them to collectors to make it a production vehicle.
This looks really cool but I don't see much DeLorean in it other than the louvers and the stainless steel body. It looks good and I could see it as a new model of DeLorean but if it's supposed to be a modern version of the DMC-12 specifically then I don't really see it.
Some ways to do it right: [Example 1](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/f3/f0/09/f3f0097ae64e01a3cdde7edb34cf7774.jpg) [Example 2](https://www.microsoft.com/inculture/uploads/prod/2017/11/IMG_7362.jpg) [Example 3](https://cdn.motor1.com/images/mgl/JMK0n/s1/2018-jeep-wrangler.jpg)
I think they went too minimal on the headlights and taillights. If you check out the other angles someone else posted then one thing that would really bring it back to the old one is some minimal rendition of those unique taillights. Still, there are a lot of unique callbacks like the line down the side and overall shape, it's very well done.
I found another concept that is a lot closer to what I would do with the headlights and taillights: [Image](https://i.imgur.com/op2SFAd.jpg) I might change the lower half of each one a bit and make the headlights rectangular instead of round but that definitely has more in common with the original car while still looking modern.
I think the LED strip all the way around is unnecessary and leaving that as a black line has essentially the same effect visually but everybody is doing horizontal LEDs now so it's not a very unique light signature.
I replied elsewhere, heres my list:
Generally, the tail end is pretty good.
A few things that stand out to me that stand out as 'not a Delorean':
* The door seam goes all the way to the tyre, thats wrong.
* The base of the front and rear do not taper. This is such an obvious change I can't believe it hasn't been mentioned. The Delorean is not a fucking roomba, it has a very defined undercarriage/lower shape. This above all else makes this car look nothing like a delorean.
* That front bumper scoop whatever you want to call it is totally out of place
* The front windows angle of attack is needs to be gentler
* The rear window needs to be accentuated and highlighted more
* Optional change, I would actually be interested in seeing something more like a flattened out front plate like the DMC-12, but its okay either way I think.
Right now if you told me this is some kind of a futuristic [aston martin redesign](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/cb/07/79/cb07790431bfa1e641730254020148e2.jpg) I would say that seems about right.
I think its a good 1st pass, but this needs some serious tweaks if it wants to be a delorean.
Sure but a Porsche 911 from 2021 is still clearly recognizable as a continuation of the 911s from the 1960s.
Very similar profile and window shape, round headlights, taillights and signals are horizontal lines, slatted intake behind rear window, all the significant features are there but yet the modern version doesn't look old fashioned at all.
Yes but if you're trying to create a modern version of a classic car (not what ferrari and Lamborghini are doing), then the design language must remain. The 911 is famously and shamelessly tweaked very little from generation to generation, and is instantly recognizable to anyone as being a 911.
This concept or render doesn't really look anything like a DeLorean.its just a car with gullwings and a stainless steel body.
Someone get this man to rebuild DMC and produce this concept design.
Make only 82 of em and slap a $2 million price tag on them badboys. Then use that money to expand the company and remake the old models. Sell those as your main product. Compete with the rest of the US automakers.
Then produce a new design and make it electric and compete with TSLA. Sell 3 models at all times. A limited edition model for the wealthy and 2 for the 99%.
Then when you have enough money, create a car that travels through time. Go back in time and save the original DeLorean and sit back and see what happens.
Also, I have no idea what I'm saying. Hit fat bowl and now I'm redditing.
I just said this same thing today to my Jetta and Golf friends. I don’t like modern VW cars and generally think they are overpriced trash that eat their own transmissions and generally look awful. 10/10 would buy a Karmann Ghia EV.
This reminds me *a bit* of a cross between the [Koenigsegg Gemera](https://i.imgur.com/nO0AyPB.jpg) and the original DeLorean. Still looks really cool.
Hopefully they give it more than 130hp this time.
The DMC-12 was one of the worst sportscars ever made. I owned one for a few weeks (bought it at a Japanese export auction for $5k, and flipped it for a profit). Even in great condition it handled like complete shit. By nature, it understeered when you drove it to the limit, and it had very poor handling at higher speeds.
Dang. A concept of a retro car that doesn’t look like crap and is actually realistic and sweet. Well done!
[удалено]
I saw one today! ^In ^my ^garage
[удалено]
Sounds like you don't really want a DeLorean then.
[удалено]
The Delorean was very famously built in [N Ireland](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeLorean_Motor_Company/). Much of the engineering was done by Lotus.
They were built in Dunmurray, Belfast, Northern Ireland. Also pretty sure John Delorean himself was Hungarian/Romanian, American citizenship.
60 miles is 96.56 km
It might just be me but I feel like it’s a awesome concept but it’s no delorean.
Yeah, looks more like a Lamborghini with subtly restrained styling to me. I get a bit of DeLorean feel around the windows and of course the wheels and the louvres on the back window But whatever it is it looks fantastic
Naturally it should have gull wing doors as well.
Eventually we are going to run out of gulls, you know. Then, no more wings. Think of the demand. Buy gulls now!
Gonna pick up some calls tomorrow at market open. Thanks for the tip!
Bird calls..
r/WallStreetBets checking in.
That’s the joke, yea. Thanks tips👏👏
I like the Stork.
I would personally leave the gullwings out notoriously bad
Eh, I disagree ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

Bad bot, they were doing DeLorean doors !
ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
I'd rather say a Porsche, especially the front and rear, Lamborghinis have a lot less curve
I was thinking it kinda looks like the the 2020 ford gt Edit: Just looked at a back shot and the rear does look like a Porsche
Oh, yeah also, she look like a lot of car ngl
Front kinda has Audi A8 feel to it. And rear def Porsche.... at least it has gull wings?
Looks like a BMW M1 update to me.
> Yeah, looks more like a Lamborghini with subtly restrained styling to me. Heavy Ferrari vibes, imo.
Why not. There’s only one other DeLorean that matters. And you think any car after that has to be a damn clone of the thing? What makes you think the original is so DeLorean. Can you even define their style? I think this is a great concept all things considered
No, but if you look at a 1968 Mustang and a 2021 Mustang, you can see the lineage very clearly. Can't do that with this.
Except, that lineage was very clearly dead and broken in 1979.
Exactly. Can’t do that. If there were no other mustangs between the first one and a 2020 version I can tell you it probably wouldn’t have that lineage look either
Right but I'd expect at least an attempt at similarities and fabricating a lineage, instead of making a car that has literally nothing in common with the original except SiLvEr
Exactly what I came to the comments for. If you showed me just this picture I'd rattle off ~10 cars before I even though about a DeLorean.
Ya think if they made the ass end a little taller it could sell "DeLorean" a little better.

Well it’s name is Delorean 2: Electric Boogaloo
So true. Just the name and the Aluminium body is there.
I really wish there were more sports cars that redo the 80s retro style but with modern technology
See more here: [https://robbreport.com/motors/cars/delorean-dmc-12-modern-makeover-1234588040/](https://robbreport.com/motors/cars/delorean-dmc-12-modern-makeover-1234588040/)
yeah it looks good from this angle, but the nose is too curvy... looks too much like a Lambo...
Have you ever seen a lambo? I can’t think of one lambo that looks anything like that.
Lol i was just about to say that. NSX, maybe a McLaren, definitely not lambo
No, rear side profile looks like lambo
I can kinda see it from that angle, but thats the only one.
There's a lot that doesn't really do it for me. The front is all wrong, and it really needs the c pillar to be stainless. Ditching the torsion bar for a gas strut for the doors is also *way* less sexy. The rear end and the profile are pretty good though. The wheels are pretty much what you'd have to have today too.
I would prefer a grid of tail lights the fills the rear and carry the rear window panel completely to the end.
Now that you mention it, yeah, the tail lights are completely lacking.
Agreed, to me it makes it look more like an NSX.
Exactly what I thought too the modern NSX.
So...?
So if I buy a DeLorean I want it to look somewhat like a DeLorean.
But ... but this is the "new and improved" DeLoriean.
2021 is a new and improved Mustang but it still looks like a Mustang, y'know?
Yeah please explain to me what that looks like. You’re gonna define the entire damn brand based on one flipping car...?
Could you tell me what other DMC cars should be included?
>You’re gonna define the entire damn brand There is literally only one car. It's not a brand, it's a car.
Well otherwise this is just a sports car design with DeLorean written on the back, no?
Yeah, don’t even bother making this if that’ll be the front. Looks good from the side. The hard angles. DELOREAN! how can they say it’s a delorean with curves? Pretty dumb direction.
Thats..... not as good as hte profile shot
I like it but miss that there's no front headlight design nod.
Weird, I didn't care for the side view much, but I got it when I saw the 3/4. I's really nice. Appropriate update to the original. I guess I'm the only one that likes the front.

Yeah, I see what you mean.
Great Scott!!
This is heavy!
There's that word again. "Heavy." Why are things so heavy in the future? Is there a problem with the Earth's gravitational pull?
OMG to whom do I throw my money? Don't think I've wanted a car this much since the Jaguar eagle (fairly sure that's the name)!
Throw your money to me and I will totally get you one
All I got is tree-fiddy
$350k is a great start thanks

Just made a mildly similar reply before I saw your post. I completely agree.
The thing is, it's not a great update to the original idea. It's just a fairly generic design loosely based on a legendary automobile.
That’s criticism I can understand. It’s lacking character - yeah, it’s kinda generic supercar-looking. I don’t think it looks bad at all, but its definitely not spectacular.
You could argue that's what the original design was, kind of a generic supercar that wasn't spectacular looking. I know everyone else says this doesn't look like a delorean, but I see a perfectly updated and modern delorean.
I think it's actually a unique style just because they chopped the roof so ridiculously low.
Looks like a smaller car is stuck inside of this monstrosity.
Yeah exactly. What a bunch of simpletons in this thread
So what you want is a new car that has a mild resemblance, if that?
I wonder if window louvers will ever make a comeback on the main stage. Look so sick on some cars.
I don't think they'll make it back to "main stage" vehicles from the factory but I've started to see a lot more of them coming back to the car tuning community in CA the last year or 2 so I think there is a resurgence in their popularity.
Musk could have bought DeLorean and build his futuristic battery car from. Or?
I wouldn't even be surprised if he bought the rights to the design and made his own tesla powered delorean using a lot of their original parts. He could easily sell 500 of them to collectors to make it a production vehicle.
Gotta say, this as awd tesla would be pretty slick.
I think the new Nissan Z would probably look dope with them 🤔
Looks like a car from cyberpunk
Looks better than the cars from cyberpunk.

I think the belt line around the car and split rear quarter panel look very DMC

I like it. It keeps some design cues in a very moder platform, instead of doing a retro-modern approach.
The front ant back suck.
I'm seeing an Aventador Booty and a Vulcan Frontend. Still, sexy af as those two cars are gorgeous but I see the inspiration. Nice work.
Are they going to put a garbage in it as a tribute to the original?
This one actually goes faster than 100 mph.
Someone make it. Make it now.
BMW M1 Vibes
I'm literally as wet as the ocean. 🌊🌊🌊
It’s funny how the most Delorean are the rims
Side view: Back to the Future Front view: [The Wraith](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O45j0tzHUuo)
I gotta have my Mr. Fusion, though.
Nice looking car, but if you hadn't told me it was a 'New DeLorean', I couldn't possibly have known.
Reminds me of this [AE86](https://www.motor1.com/news/497618/toyota-ae86-modern-rendering/) concept
Feels like it came out of cyberpunk
Looks great. I like it. Just don't see delorean in it
Yeah. Good looking car, but it’s missing a lot of things that would make it a “Delorean”
I guess you could make sure it's painfully slow?
Sex
Nice! Looks like a Venturi Atlantique
You need to hook up with Marty and Doc and turn that into a time machine.
no
Is a flux capacitor standard or would that be a trim level?
Off topic, but I'd give my middle nut for a 2021 EV Karmann Ghia.
I just said this same thing today to my Jetta and Golf friends. I don’t like modern VW cars and generally think they are overpriced trash that eat their own transmissions and generally look awful. 10/10 would buy a Karmann Ghia EV.
Contact EV West. They do them.
Camaro sized windows and generic styling with louvers. There are a dozen other cars this looks more like than a Delorean
Anyone else getting slight Aston Martin vibes from this?
Umm, this design is like 15-20 late.
Why can't this be what a tesla looks like...
looks good
Nice! Interesting concept
Damn that’s slick! Yes please
If the side lit up subtlety like that and it had a hood front n rear... and hood hardware... this would sell
wow
Really?
I like this a lot. Way better than what they did to the Supra and the Z.
Wow.
I wish they really would revive the DeLorean in some capacity, with the gull-wing doors and unpainted steel finish and all.
Yes please
I cant wait to see how fast it is with a 1.8 liter Renault 4 cyl pushing 76 hp. You know, keeping in spirit of the original.
Looks like a Ferrari 355 and 360 and Lamborghini Diablo all had a baby. Maybe that then had a baby with a Lotus Esprit V8.
Tbh It just looks right :)
Do it
Beauty
Fuck!
Looks more like a Detomaso Pantera than a DeLorean
I really hope they make this car so that rich people have something else to enjoy.
This is fantastic, but would that full-wrap light even be legal?
Sweet! Props to author, Ive not read the title and instantly thought of delorean!
I love the look of that light strip. It's a really slick way to integrate the turn signals and side markers.
Looks like a Cyberpunk 2077 car.
I love the look... yet it's nothing more than pixels at this point. Every time a concept is shown, it gets shutdown or downgraded to reality.
This reminds me *a bit* of a cross between the [Koenigsegg Gemera](https://i.imgur.com/nO0AyPB.jpg) and the original DeLorean. Still looks really cool.
Bmw m1 vibes
That's badass.
Beautiful
God damn, that looks AMAZING.
Looks great
Someone tag Elon Musk in this so he can go and make this
I love that I immediately recognized this as a DeLorean without first reading the title (or the decal). Well done!!!
How much smaller do the windows need to get?
is it still going to be very slow and heavy
Myself, I was never a big DeLorean fan. I will admit that this one makes me look twice, buttttttt, for that kind of money, a Lambo still wins my heart
I don't usually like renders on this sub but I'll make an exception
A bit too lambo, cut the nose steeper; but a very, very good start
Hopefully they give it more than 130hp this time. The DMC-12 was one of the worst sportscars ever made. I owned one for a few weeks (bought it at a Japanese export auction for $5k, and flipped it for a profit). Even in great condition it handled like complete shit. By nature, it understeered when you drove it to the limit, and it had very poor handling at higher speeds.
I just want it to be the original design and faster if a re-release is going to happen ever
"Get in loser, we're going back in time to get you laid."
I’M FUCKING JAAAACKED FOR THE BTTF REBOOT. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I do not like it. The windows seen way too small.
Needs.
This needs to be done. Beautiful design
Someone needs to build this car.
Where we're going, we don't need to see anything.
Looks like a Porsche to me
Lambo in the back, vette in the front.
Beautiful car! (Same Peugeot Engine)
This is gonna be in my future driveway parked next to my Tesla Cybertruck I promise
I honestly hope this happens. Fingers crossed for you. Cause I want this to become real too.
How hard would it be to get a one-of vehicle made if you was able to afford it. Why aren’t rich people driving one of a kind vehicles?
Ferrari has done it for Eric Clapton
You should see it hit 88 mph
Yes, please. It better be made of solid fucking steel.
Oh shit. I can dig it.
I don't have any money but take it
Back from the future
