Sony Interactive Entertainment, Polyphony Digital, and Porsche have unveiled ‘Porsche Vision Gran Turismo,’ which is Porsche’s first concept car created specifically for use in a video game. It’ll be available to drive exclusively in the upcoming Gran Turismo 7. For the uninitiated, Vision Gran Turismo is an acclaimed project in which major automotive brands collaborate with Polyphony Digital and Sony to design concept cars for Gran Turismo players.

“We spent a long time considering the right material design consisting of carbon and titanium,” Markus Auerbach, Head of Interior Design at Porsche, said in a press release. “In addition, sustainable aspects also play a role in forward-looking projects. For example, we only used entirely vegan materials in the concept car.”
“The appeal of a Porsche comes from its purist design,” added Kazunori Yamauchi, President of Polyphony Digital. “And in terms of engineering expertise, both we and Porsche follow the same perfectionist philosophy. We share the same passion for racing and are looking to the future of the car.”
Gran Turismo 7 will release for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 on March 4th, 2022. You can read more details about the Porsche Vision Gran Turismo on the official Gran Turismo website.
