CONCEPT
As its fourth project making a world premiere --following the GENO, KIRA, and Xtile --- Sivax presents the IZANA. The IZANA is a high-end coupe designed with a novel, unprecedented aesthetic. A fusion of the lines of traditional coupes and elements of Japan@s classical culture, and a pursuit of higher quality for sophisticated men and women -- brought together, these led to the creation of the IZANA. The blending of different cultures succeeded in a coupe of a completely new form. Sivax, with its approach to design, consistently creates new.

IZANA is named after a god in Japan`s mythology, "Izanaginomikoto," who is known as the creator of the ancient Japanese islands and the father of many gods. The name IZANA was chosen to signify our company`s commitment to being a carrozzeria in Japan, to continue creating outstanding designs and models.

DESIGN
IZANA`s style has unique qualities enabled by the redefinition of balance and other characteristics that any coupe should inherit from the designs of its predecessors. The basic idea for its unrestrained lines and the for the choice of rear wheels being larger than the front ones is taken from Japan`s classical vehicle, the jinrikisha. With an elegant but vivacious silhouette, IZANA is reminiscent of an animal about to leap. As it combines the dynamic form with fine-featured lamp treatment that hints of kabuki makeup, IZANA expresses both contained strength and flamboyance. The large gull-wing doors tempt the driver to make a run into a different and undiscovered world.

The IZANA interior offers a unique atmosphere suggesting reliability and grace as soft and natural-tesxture leather blends with copper surfaces in an armor motif. The impressive interior space glows warmly as light coming in through the glass roof and reflects off the copper and splendidly matched leather.
