Cyberpunk 2077 is all the rave right now and with load of cars to discover (aka buy, earn, or steal) and drive in the game, it looks like the gaming community is going to have a blast during the incoming holiday season.
Fun aside, one of our favorite pixel manipulators brought back an old design of his and while the car isn’t in the game, we urge the devs to make it available via a future DLC.
The designer in question is Khyzyl Saleem and the car he concocted is the so-called EVE Lamborghini Countach. Khyzyl is no stranger to the world of car video games since he designed the tuned Polestar 1 Hero Edition featured in-game and on the cover of NFS Heat.
Despite his neat portfolio, he wasn’t involved (yet) with Cyberpunk 2077, despite the fact that some of his creations would look right at home in the newly-released game, including the said EVE Countach. Which, between you and me, looks like a Terminator Countach that’s come from a future to show us what cool cars await there.
If and when the car industry will start churning out similar car - probably never - remains to be seen. Tesla did take a first step with the Cybertruck but other than that, we don’t expect someone else to join the cyberpunk car design bandwagon.
With a bit of luck, though - and another Dieselgate - our grandchildren might get to drive these eccentric cars. But for the time being, we’ll have to settle for their virtual personas that we can all drive using a joystick. Or drool on the keyboard at the sight of Khyzyl’s work.
