Alpine Vision Gran Turismo is now available to download for Gran Turismo 6 and marks the 60th anniversary of the Alpine brand.

TO CELEBRATE its 60th anniversary, Alpine has revealed a behind-the-scenes look at the making of Alpine Vision Gran Turismo which is available to download for Gran Turismo 6.

“The Alpine Vision Gran Turismo film is a real expressive exercise. We wanted to get back to our world and our values: agility, the mountains, competition and elegance,” says Emilie Gruson, Alpine artistic director.

The first shots of the video reveal the Alpine Vision Gran Turismo on an alpine circuit, with 3D images modelled for the film by Polyphony Digital Inc., the studio that develops Gran Turismo. After a few seconds, the environment evolves into a sketch, and the sky, the mountains and the road become drawings, transforming entirely into a cartoon. The car metamorphoses into a stylised bird, which unfolds its wings to fly before freezing, becoming a drawing. Everything is first drawn by the illustrator: “My work reflects the styles I’ve been inspired by: science fiction, graphic novels and even some comics.”

If you can’t handle the film and it is a little self-indulgent then you could just download the expansion pack for Gran Turismo 6 where you’ll be able to virtually drive the Alpine Vision Gran Turismo. Beyond that you’ll be able to change the colour… 

To find the car, choose ‘Vision GT’ on the ‘My home’ screen. You can then purchase the Alpine Vision Gran Turismo, which will appear in your showroom.
