The GTX is the first vehicle by Californian Industrial Design House Devon Motor Works. The official debut of the car will take place at the 2009 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance on August 15, 2009.

The GTX was designed by Swedish Daniel Paulin, and is based on the designer's VR Concept, presented by Car Body Design on June 2007.

The Devon GTX features a carbon-fiber bodywork with clean, uninterrupted chrome appointments.

Distinctive styling features include “up and forward” articulating doors, two-tone wheel surrounds, minimal front/rear overhangs, and dual center rear exit chrome exhaust ports.

Inside, the minimalistic design is characterized by carbon fiber-structure racing seats with dual-grained leather surfacing, and chrome trims.

“These are pure driving-oriented vehicles where design intent is all about simplicity, functionality and beauty,” said Daniel Paulin, “There really isn’t one detail on this car that doesn’t ultimately contribute to its performance capability.”

Production of the Devon GTX is scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2010 at the Devon Motor Works / Aria-Group’s Irvine, Calif., headquarters.

All pricing, performance and technical specifications will be released at the vehicle’s world debut at Pebble Beach on August 15, 2009.

About the GTX Project

The product development is led by former Ford executive engineer Andy Benedict, while assembly and manufacturing is headed by Clive Hawkins, founder of Aria Group.

Aerodynamic testing is supervised by Dr. Joseph Katz of San Diego State University and vehicle validation and testing is handled by former 24 Hours of Le Mans champion Justin Bell.

The founder and CEO of Devon Motor Works is business veteran Scott Devon, who explains: "More than anything else, the Devon GTX is about blending aesthetics, dynamic power, and tactility in a form that is unmistakably bold."
