Wonderful work! I love learning about incredible vehicles that I didn’t even know existed. It is also nice to hear where the vehicle might exist in a museum, if I ever get a chance to visit.
Interesting comparison to the 1955 Citroen DS that was in production for 20 years and nearly 1.5 million produced. Everything except the engine was cutting edge and the aerodynamics even went as far as a narrow rear track.
That front end is absolutely fantastic! It slightly reminds me of the Saab 96 I used to own, but far better. Elon Musk should have made the M1000 teardrop instead of his cybertruck design.
Gotta love the "Buck Rogers" / "Flash Gordon" look and feel of this car! If produced, this would have been an instant classic; even if only in a "cult" following. A quick Google Search found no diecasts or models of this one. Hopefully 3D Code Writers will take notice . . . . I'd like to see a future video on the Pininfarina CNR from 1978. That one looks like it could have been designed yesterday! Thanks for making and sharing! 74th Like.
Compare the 1936 Dubonnet and the 1932 Dymaxion -- two earlier versions of this rough body plan. It really is rather surprising that nothing quite like this has made it to market. Haha, I suppose the VW van is slightly adjacent
Anything's possible. Maybe the creator of the Morelli M-1000 had something to do with Fiat. Or the company used the work of Morelli's creator. Maybe it's just a coincidence.
What could have been an informative video fails when the producer refuses to state its top speed in miles per hour. The conversion could have added just a few words to his commentary but his stubborn reliance on reporting only in metric standards reduces its relevance to the American audience.
The rear engine concept gives poor safety and roadholding, and makes the car a real death trap! A rear engine is not "forward thinking"!! And no "visionary engineering" at all!
Plus the Tatra T77 and T87 were revolutionary for their time and had incredible fuel efficiency too, although the front end does get a little light at high speed.
It just looks super cool and retrofuturistic👍
Thank you.

Thank you.
Remember that the very aerodynamic Citroen DS from 1955 was also designed by an italien sculptur, Flaminio Bertoni!
The DS was also front wheel drive!
A front collision would not be any fun, but I still want one.
Was not aware of this italian beauty. Reminds a bit of Fuller's Dymaxion
What a beauty
I would have loved to see the interior. So beautiful.
THX RETRO VERY 🥶 COOL CAR 🤗💚💚💚

I will do a video about the Pininfarina CNR car in the near future, but I am highly interested in the Pininfarina PF-X car.
Headlamps behind protective glass was a real first! Came in 1967 on the DS......
If you haven't already, now's the time to look up the connection between "bullet bumper" and "bullet bra."
Thank you. Unfortunately mistakes sometimes happen when voicing the text. I apologize that this happens.
@@retrocarchannel Nothing wrong with your text.
Just look at the car and look up the definition of the two conceptions ;)

A Morelli 1000 Abarth would have coasted at 125 MPH on Italy's Autostradas !
This looks like a tusk-an design.
Left rear tire looks a bit low.
The Jetsons 😂
Yeah, I know what you mean ))))
Terry Gillium's licking his lips...
A very vague resemblance to the 1950‘s Fiat Multipla.

Funny how you say that but vehicles like the Porsche 911 and Alpine A110 were monsters in motorsport for a very long time
