Nagare (pronounced na-gah-reh') is described by the company as an "entirely new and unique expression of Zoom-Zoom.""Nagare is a celebration of proportions and surface language that will evolve into subsequent designs planned for presentation at future international auto shows," said Laurens van den Acker, Mazda's new global design director. "Nagare examines light and shadow and begins to reveal the global design cues for the next generation of Mazda vehicles."
The Nagare design team was based in Irvine, California, according to a statement by Mazda.
"Inspired by the movement of nature's elements, our designers have captured motion, energy and lightness and translated it into a beautiful language of lines and forms that are powerful yet effortless, provocative yet strikingly seductive," said Franz von Holzhausen, director of design for Mazda North American Operations.
The Nagare is number four in a line of intriguing concepts from Mazda, joining the Kabura, Sassou and Senku.
