Exterior design
The stylistic research developed in Sintesi might be represented by a fine phrase of Pinin Farina:'The line, the form must become substance,living material'.A view that clearly reveals the basic theme of the car: a continuous looped surface that, starting from the front wing, stretches along the side of the car, naturally blends into the rear fender and then turns around the sidewindow to dive back under the front wing. Like a Moebius ring, uniting the inside and outside of the car.
The four doors open independently, while their shapes were carefully studied to offer great accessability to the car.Unlike traditional vehicles, the front looks scooped out, a unit consisting of a relatively thin upper and lower wing with the laminated radiator integrated with the surface.
Opening the doors, Sintesi invites you in its spacious cabin and reveals its true character:
a car build around its passengers with a central spline stretching from the front to the rear of the car, lending it both esthetical and structural strength.
The rear design is a pure application of a Pininfarina theme: the 'coda tronca'. The volume of the car is cut off with one gesture, putting in evidence the typical section of the car and visually connecting to the front design. The rear, a 'coda tronca', which is the best solution for optimizing the air flow. The aerodynamic under body and the 'coda tronca' allow to reach an excellent CX value of 0,272 The rear lights incorporate not only the newest LED Osram technology but also cameras and sensors and visually connects the rear to the side by underlining the central axis.
Everything in Sintesi has been designed to minimize drag and make aerodynamic performance as effi cient as possible. For example the car has been designed as a closed object: in addition to the 5 classic sides a sixth, the vehicle underside, has been designed to include an aerodynamic tunnel with the function of limiting negative lift.
