- Concepts cars are made for a variety of reasons. They can cost automakers millions of dollars to make. Sometimes they're made to gauge consumers interest in a new model and other times they're simply a testing ground for innovative technology that's not ready for a mass production vehicle.

Why Automakers Spend Millions On Concept Cars They Don't Plan On Making - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
So its basically a million-dollar-clickbait ?
Minh Nguyễn Pretty much. Automakers spend up to Billions on each vehicles’ RD
Minh Nguyễn yeah
Because they have money. So be it.
More like a scam. Like everything in this world.
H&M Entertainment Yh man that’s why you gotta be smart and scam the scammers for there money
It's just like game trailers
except they don't disappoint their audience
@@menacetosociety9076 ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
@@johnt2914 wat I meant is that concept cars has the word concept for a reason but have u seen game trailers?
@@johnt2914 nobody ever releases concept cars so...
Yo' chill..
Tesla is what happens when you actually make concept cars into a reality.
Lets Get Smarted For real
Tesla is a fooking joke, who just want dumb rich people invests on that shit...and visibly that works...on dumbass and you...wait... :D
JO 7Z funny how you call them dumb but they’re rich.
The Nature Of Us rich people are still rich
The Nature Of Us I’m not talking about the company
Concept cars are basically just a “we did it before it was cool!” statement.
I really don't know why they do it. everyone hates Renault because they make cool concept cars then give you an econobox special can thingy.
Xavi it’s about showing what brands are capable of
they can get funded from positive reception. If someone thinks it looks cool they’ll want to throw money at it and want it first. With that money they’ll make a typical Lincoln Navigator.
This. Renault always makes awsome concept cars. But i never seen a beautifull renault on the road. hahahahah That's why i never bought a renault. Also, if you buy a renault... always buy one with a Nissan Engine inside.
@@HermanWillems I like the design of the Laguna and I think the Twingo is cute.
@@HermanWillems yep renault engines are shit
Concept vehicles are just the *"Weird flex but ok"* in the car industry.
I cant downvote this enough
🤣😂😂😂😂🤣

Cybertruck: *no*
Efeler Gibi please only Tesla fanboys r buying that
@@johnny9881 well its a good thing the tesla fanbase is growing.
Johnny hmm weird considering how much it’s already sold
@@miguellopez3392 nobody is going to use CyberTruck for what its built for, & the fact is that it has lesser orders than their model 3 with $1000 deposit
@@davel7037 most people who buy trucks dont ever use them for their purpose anyways, i do carpentry and construction, i can see some uses for the cybertruck but its is not a work truck, more of a off road truck, elon had expectations that the cyber truck was going to be small market which is why he did a $100 deposit to gauge demand for the truck, hence why its called the cybertruck and not the tesla truck, because its intended to be a limited product.
I'm now driving a concept car from the past
Ray Mak wich car?

And I driving a concept car but from the 60's. Cool car.

@@LuxuryIncorp the way they are placed is so bad it will only be of use to birds not the driver himself. And he said "almost all of them"
Car companies: *makes concept car
Car blondie: *its free real estate*
I went to the LA Auto Show in 2001 and I remember seeing all the new concept cars which most auto companies said cars would look like in 10 years. Then came 2011 and all the cars made for mass production didn't look even remotely like any concept car you seen at the auto show.
What I can't seem to understand is why making a production car that resembles its concept prototype is really such a difficult task. It seems like most car companies are paralyzed by a debilitating fear of not sucking. They create concept cars to show everyone that, when they suck, they do so by choice and not by obligation.
@@sethdotson6915 Based on the video, they said that the concept cars are "idealized" vision of the designer. When they want to produce the actual car, things like safety regulations, cost, manufacturing, technology may not aligned with the idealized vision. Hence why they didn't make the production cars look like the prototype. Also those prototype are usually hand built allowing for more freedom in shaping the car, converting the body shape to mass production using machine may not viable so they change the shape in production car.
Thumbnail: “You can’t buy this.”
Me: I don’t want to.
Just Julian Deadass💀
deep inside you do
Welp, I guess we’ll never get that flying car
Socialism keeps you from buying even food, let alone a flying car
They will never be a flying cars in this world but I got lots of reasons why but the comment would be too long soo just go and watch the vid called “why they will never be flying cars” also fun fact they also planted flying cars in 18s but then they cancelled everything
AIG I’m not a socialist, I’m a conservative. I guess you think everyone that’s Cuban is automatically a socialist. You must lack an education to think that. Majority of Cubans in the US are conservatives. We’re anti communism
You can always have a flying plane
Avery The Cuban I’m liberal. You just experienced American conservatives on the internet. (Accuses everyone of being a lefts, socialist, and SJW simply if they disagree.) WELCOME TO THE INTERNET IN THE US OF A 😃! Lol but yeah I agree we won’t see flying cars period.
Video summary: It's mostly meant for hype and attention which in many ways equates to more money
Thanks
The narrator's lisp was annoying me
That's mostly it. It's marketing for the brand. A few million dollars on a concept car gets them lots of press. Some companies make commercials with talking frogs even though they don't sell frogs of about kind because it keeps the brand in people's minds.
0:43 imagine that hitting a speed bump
also most Lamborghinis
It's true, it might be stuck forever... plus, it might be scratched at the parking lot in the grocery store, and insurance costs are very high due to poor suspension
“It creates excitement for the production car”
Yeah, because people thought the car was going to have unique state-of-the-art features and then you pull a bait and switch.
He said: You can’t buy this
and
I was like: I know I can’t buy this.
😭
But can I buy for you?
Retro Astronaut
Do you have the money sir?
5:18 The way he pronounced Renault
How do you make a video about cars when you're obviously so foreign to the industry?
What a dead giveaway that was.
Ran-out 😆
Ren Oh
Must have never watched a single F1
Others for Advertising,
Tesla, for Memes.
Tbh I've never heard of any other companies concept cars. Memes seem to be a great way.
@@CS_Mango memes are usually the only way I retain information
Chrono-Glitch WaterLily lmao so true
anything for the memez
Thanks, now I can sleep peacefully at night
The future has an unlimited spending budget
That's a deceptive title. They literally say depending on the reaction of the people they may or may not build that concept car for mass production.
They will version the car. V1: 1 step @ 30k. V2: 2 steps @ 33k.
Get the l.s. version with the self closing doors additional 20k.
they take features from the car not the whole thing
308328928 The challenger and Jeep were concept cars that hit production so if public wants the concept car the company will make it happen
Moses Afrane not the case with the Chrysler ME-412. People were excited for it and Chrysler was ready to produce it but Mercedes stopped them from doing it
Millions still go into the design
The answer is actually really simple: to check responds!
I used to sit in the back of class in school and draw concept cars every day. Gorgetto Gugaro and Marcello Ghandini are my heros. I always wanted to go to Art Center in Pasadena. Thanks.
Follow your dreams!
Lincoln, Mazda, BMW, Lexus basically made their concepts a reality today
So, it's just like the clickbait of automotive manufacturing industry.
This was narrated and edited really well, I would like to see more content like this.
It's like e3's Watch Dogs walkthrough
2:01 Who remembers those cars? (In the background)
I totally forgot about those! I miss them. :(
I still remember General Motors teasing a concept car/motorcycle hybrid called the 'Lean Machine' at Disney's Epcot Center back in the 80's.. It boasted a ridiculous 200 miles per gallon!
Reupload? I watched that video almost till the end when "Video not available" showed up!!
They shld just say, "it's a believe by the industry that this is a great idea on deceiving the general customer to expose them to our brand."
Concepts are uselees in my opinion, if you want to test a new technology do it in house, do not show off something that will never be put in production. How many times did you heard “The car of the future is gonna be electric and it’s gonna drive itself!!!! Wait until 2030 and you’ll see!!!”?
Meanwhile Tesla yesterday presented their full selfdriving hardware and software that will be on the market before 2020. Seems better to me.
You can't just bring out new cars and risk your whole damn company, that's not how it works, a single concept car can cost up to a million dollars but it would be far more expensive to just release a new concept car and hope for the best...even tesla isn't just bringing out their latest designs and besides, tesla made only losses up to this point so I wouldn't even use them as an example...
Pier Paolo Polla they’re just having some fun man chill out
I wanna have fun too
You are literally proving yourself wrong in your own comment 😂
if there weren’t concept cars then cars like the srt viper or the bmw i8 then they wouldn’t go into production
"We lie to make more money"
Stretched into a whole 6 minutes
Quality journalism
The 1995 blue Dodge Viper with the two white racing stripes is my dream car.
Interesting.. and makes sense. Thanks for such an informative video
Lagonda is building it though, in a couple of years... 0:31
Half these designs would explode if they hit a speedbump
100% true
0:20 is the Aston Martin 003 which will be produced in the near future according to Aston Martin, thus it is not a concept car.
Great vid
BMW did something like that with the 2 series active tourer and the X7
reupload? Anyone realize that
Aye you're back here
@Big Smoke where do we see the previous upload? It was on their channel 2 weeks(?) Right before this video uploaded.
The biggest disappointment I ever had in my life was in finding out in my early teens..that automakers never intend mass produce concept cars like when I first was one at a car show. It's a tease worse then a beautiful woman rubbing up against you with a smile....
Damn you automakers!!!
R RQ ???? Lmao pervert
Thank u 4 the video
The Chrysler imperial concept to this day was the most beautiful concept car I have seen...in person.
Mr. Eighty Chrysler concepts have always been divine
I dont have time to wait for the door to be opened.
Lovely video!
So essentially what I believed was that these concepts show the current maximum possibilities of current technology for the given purpose of the car and what who the car is marketed to.
Title about Concept car that neverade into Production. But shows Aston Martin Valhalla who is already green lighted for production
"Self-driving car technology seems so far away"
Tesla: am I a joke to you?
Driverless vehicles are dangerous at best
@@r.d.9399 For now. in somewhere between 30 to 50 years, we'd be seeing driverless cars everywhere when the systems got a lot better than they're now.
It’s like staging a home to sell. You do it to give people a visual dream, which helps them remember your company when you think of the next car to buy. Also like a Chanel Show, most people won’t buy the whole collection but they will buy the bag because of the exaggeration.
That Kia at 6:20 is gorgeous though with a stinger interior and engine it could be something really nice
So where do the concept cars go after they showcased? To the museum? Auction sales for the riches?
Probably thrown into some warehouse somewhere and never seen again.
Yeah “museums.” They may be taken back to the manufacture’s headquarters or sold to someone rich but not to be driven because concept cars usually aren’t street legal
A select few would go to the museum, some get sold to very loaded collectors, & i guess over half would simply get taken back & taken apart. they're, after all, mere showpieces instead of true products.
While the traditional auto makers are fart-arsing around with concept models.... Tesla are turning their concepts into reality, and are streets ahead with the technology and efficiency.
Well this didn't age too well.
Great video man it's quite obvious you spent loads of time on it don't mean to sound cliche though
It's like a dish with all possible dressings and sauces. It is meant for you to get a taste each one of them so that later you could pick the right ones when you cook
We all know they're simply for designers to try out some LED strips on their cars
Designer: Sir they really liked our cars lights.
Boss: The ones we got on Amazon?
Designer: No the ones we bought from Walmart.
Boss: *shakes the guy* we are going to be rich!
Reupload?? I smell demonitize here
Be nice
@@tobejaison9781 lol
0:38 I'm no car fan and don't care much for them but dayum is this a beauty or what
I love the new desing
*when you have to reach 200 words in an essay
All the features that come from concept cars are still very expensive when sold in production cars. In the end most people end up buying cars that can go from a to b. And still has the same tech as a car from 20 years ago.
Ever heard of Tesla?
Cybertruck is going to change all that.
It's not just a car.
Its going to signify a shift in the automotive industry when it SUCCEEDS.
And all these car manufacturers that have been doing the same thing for decades are going to start thinking how they can keep up.
Well explained
They should make a museum for the coolest concept cars plus a racetrack would be very fun
WHY REUPLOAD
4:55 Road bump?
They're only driven on concept roads
@@rollingrocky3608 what is concept road ?
Thanks for the re upload . Now I can sleep peacefully at night
Reminds me of of the Ubisoft's Watchdog demo
4:30 Do you guys know about Tesla?
7 figures? That's pretty much almost every atas car in Singapore
6:16 Ahh that would be a great Mazda sports car! Looks amazing, and looks more like it than an Infiniti
Bait and switch, the good old Scamerica way 😊
Why did you reupload it
Reupload... Why... Demonetized?
Whether deliberately or not, concept cars definitely have a role in making sure cars seem like the future rather than the past
Sony made the Vision S electric concept car in 2020 and it looks great. Now thats a vehicle I think should be produced
Nobody:
Not a single soul:
My brain: I want that for free
Imagine any of those concept sports cars hitting a pot hole
I’ve hung out several times with Ralph Gilles. Back in 2006 at Festival of LX’s in Irvine California he stayed at the Double Tree and rode with us to cars and coffee at Crystal Cove the morning before the event. There was a guy there with a modified 300C SRT8. Ralph and I were walking around the car and he walked up to the 50ish rather arrogant owner and said, “Hey nice, I like what you did with your 300.” The owner wasn’t a dick per se but was rather dismissive about the compliment. I couldn’t let this go so immediately after, I walked up to the owner and said, “Do you know who that is? That’s the guy who designed your car.” His jaw dropped and he immediately went over to talk with Ralph. It was pretty cool to be a catalyst for that moment.
Not only that though, a concept car could be reference for future design philosophy of their future cars. Like what mazda and BMW had done
4:30 "So far away''
Well well, a year later and we have Tesla
That SUV Mercedes look like an Armored Car
Imagine you are driving in the Lincoln concept and it's raining and cold and someone opens the whole side of the car like "get out sandy I'm freezing in here*.
Lincoln seems to actually use their concept car concepts (the MKsomething concept car was first released like in 2005 I think)
why you dont talk to Toyota designers? They are top car manufacture
Adrian Dimayacyac Because they live right next to you and speak your language and wants to meet you and has a lot of free time.
Straight forward answer ?
- To get attention 🤗
“I bet there will be flying cars in the future”
Me: yeah, just wait how expensive the thing is.
I have a concept car from the past love it
On the picture it says "you cant buy this" as if all of us had the money to buy that ;(
They reuploaded and changed the thumbnail
2 thousand views, probably the earliest ive been to business insider video
They actually eventually end up being in the market. Just 20 years ahead.
If you look at concept cars from the 90s, you are driving some of them right now.
Or a similar variation
I feel like if production cars were to actually include something like glass doors, it would cause the passenger to lose their privacy and also have the safety rating go down due to glass.
Business Insider: "Concept Cars They Don't Plan On Making"
Aston Martin: "Hold my beer"
@0:16 - That's AM-RB 003. A confirmed production car.
well i remember when the r35 was a concept , and i liked rhe production car even more!
This is really unfortunate we can’t get these cool ass cars
One reason only:
because they fricken can.
