A student of the Moscow Poly has created a design for a Russian sports car: it will be released in 2022

Several years ago, the Russian company DK Racing designed and then assembled a track racing car called the Shortcut. Within four years of release, 55 vehicles were handed over to customers, 16 of which were shipped in 2021. Moreover, this year the company decided to launch a competition, during which students of the design department of the Moscow Polytechnic University had to develop a new body design for an existing sports car model. The prize fund of this competition was 100 thousand rubles, and the winner is already known – it is Evgeny Grishanov, whose work the engineers liked the most.

It is worth noting that the flight of the imagination of future designers was limited by a rather important requirement – when creating a new body design, the participants in the competition had to take into account the current design features of the car. That is, new decorative and body elements should be easily installed on existing vehicles of customers. Grishanov’s design coped with this task with a plus – the author endowed the car with stylish narrow LED optics, as well as laconic and rather graceful body kits that give the sports car a futuristic appearance.

The second and third places are occupied by Kirill Chebyshev and Laysan Arslanova, respectively – they have chosen a more classic body design. As a result, the DK Racing team of specialists plans to assemble the car in a new body and present it in the spring of 2022 – as promised by the engineers, the updated version of the exterior can be installed on any previously released Shortcut. And given that the sports car was presented back in 2017 by automotive standards, and its design is already outdated, there will be plenty of people who want to update the Shortcut with a new body.
