In a stunning display of creativity and innovation, Kia has unveiled a full-scale model of its latest electric vehicle, the EV6, made entirely from 350,000 Lego bricks. The model was created to coincide with Milan Design Week and will be on display for visitors to admire.
The Kia EV6 is the company's first dedicated battery-electric vehicle and features an impressive range of up to 510 kilometers on a single charge. It also boasts a sleek and futuristic design, with a low-slung profile, sculpted lines, and a distinctive front-end with integrated headlights.
To recreate this stunning design in Lego form, Kia enlisted the help of artist, certified Lego professional, and founder of the Brick Art Media studio, Nathan Sawaya. Sawaya is well-known for his incredible Lego creations, which range from life-size human figures to massive sculptures of iconic landmarks.
Using 3D computer-aided design (CAD) software, Sawaya and his team were able to create a digital blueprint of the Kia EV6. They then used this blueprint to design and build the Lego model, which stands at over six meters long, two meters wide, and 1.6 meters high.
The Lego model accurately replicates the EV6's unique design features, including its distinctive front-end and aerodynamic profile. It even features functional lights, which illuminate the headlights and taillights, as well as a fully detailed interior.
Speaking about the project, Sawaya said, "The goal with this project was to highlight the intricate design and cutting-edge technology of the Kia EV6. The Lego model is not only a fun and playful way to showcase the car, but it's also an example of what can be achieved with creativity and imagination."
The Kia EV6 Lego model is a testament to the power of collaboration between different industries and the possibilities that arise when creativity and innovation are combined. It's a truly remarkable achievement that showcases the design and technology of the EV6 in a unique and playful way.
Visitors to Milan Design Week will undoubtedly be impressed by the Kia EV6 Lego model, and it's sure to inspire others to push the boundaries of what's possible with Lego and other creative mediums.
