Italdesign
Concept sedan reconciling roominess with aerodynamics
With the Orca, Giugiaro wished to develop a four-door, four-seater hatchback sedan reconciling roominess with aerodynamics.

BRAND: Italdesign

MODEL: Orca - Delta 4x4 Turbo

YEAR: 1981

BODY TYPE: Sedan

POWER SUPPLY: Combustion

CATEGORY: Concept car

DESIGNER: Giorgetto Giugiaro

The theme was the same as on the Medusa (1980), but the mechanical concept was completely different: front transverse engine with disconnectable four-wheel drive. In practice Giugiaro wanted to find out up to which point he could push the compromise between roominess and aerodynamics in a car that because of its mechanical assembly couldn't have a low, front hood streamlined like the Medusa's. The roominess laid down during the design stage was excellent. As mechanicals Giugiaro chose the Lancia Delta 1600 turbocharger and disconnectable four-wheel drive.
