Just a day after Yamauchi San's usual monthly update teaser on Twitter, Gran Turismo released a trailer video on their youtube channel to announce the upcoming reveal of a Ferrari Vision GT car, planned to be revealed this sunday, the 27th of November, during the GTWS World Finals livestream.
It is unclear at this moment if the car will be included in the upcoming update or if it will be released at a later date.
While the light signature may look similar to the 499p LMh car, a closer inspection shows the lights have a different angle. You can also spot the cavallino rampante sitting below the lights height, in a spot where the Le Mans hypercar features a hole. Moreover, the engine sound at the end of the video doesn't seem to match either the racing prototype or the 296 V6s.
The Vision GT project was launched 10 years ago and has seen manufacturers designing cars purposefully for Gran Turismo games, which means the car to be revealed will be a new prototype. Some manufacturers have elected to build full scale models, but some even went beyond that, such as McLaren who surprised everyone by manufacturing and selling the Solus, a car extremely close to their VGT concept, which was probably one of the least expected virtual prototypes to have a chance to ever become real - so as a manufacturer producing unique cars through its Special Projects program, it wouldn't be surprising to see a VGT concept become a fully fledged running Ferrari.
What are your thoughts on the VGT concept car?
