You do not need to be addicted to petrol fumes to know that minivans have lost significant ground to crossovers and SUVs. Yet some companies are not willing to drop the people carriers from their lineups.
Not only that but there are also new players in this dying segment, like the Lexus LM, which targets rich families with an eye-watering expensive price tag. You may rightfully call the Japanese marque's MPV ostentatious, though it pales in comparison with the Avatr 13.
Don't know what Avatr is? Well, first of all, it is not a typo. And second, it is one of the multiple Chinese companies that want a piece of the automotive industry. They gave us the 11 crossover two years ago, and more recently, they expanded the offering with the 12 sedan. Therefore, a hypothetical minivan from this automaker would obviously be called the 13.
With the word hypothetical in mind, this vehicle was brought to life using countless mouse clicks. It is the work of sugardesign_1 on Instagram, and it is even flashier than we would have expected. The reason is the model that was used as a blank canvas, and that is the Stout Scarab. Credited by some as being the world's first minivan, it is an ugly piece of machinery that's been dead since the 1940s.
Thus, using this hideous old-timer as a starting point, the rendering artist set out to rearrange its pixels, giving it some styling traits inspired by the aforementioned Avatr 11 and 12. As a result, it has familiar front and rear ends. Everything else is on the OTT side, as the streamlined body is extremely long, thus creating a very spacious cockpit that appears to have three individual rows of seats for extra comfort on the go.
Since both the 11 and 12 models signed by Avatr are electric vehicles, it would be logical for the so-called 13 to go down the all-quiet route, too. Ideally, it would use a pair of motors to drive all four wheels, generating a ridiculous amount of power to the point where it would give blue-blooded machines a run for their money. And it would do so by providing elevated comfort, numerous luxury features, and countless tech gizmos.
A hypothetical Avatr 13 would have no direct competitor in today's market, where it would take an indirect swing at the electrified Lexus LM that we mentioned above. It would not sell in that many numbers to make a difference either, and since we think the car world needs new crazy proposals, we would definitely support it, even though we would never buy one. But assuming they'd make it happen, would the Avatr 13 be something you’d consider buying?
