WAKO,    's killer earthquake tsunami double strike slammed the country in 2011, trashing out 's operations   and people of its domestic rivals   intended for months.
But the disaster moved a silver lining for  that has radically transformed it has the design department   for the much better.
Refugee engineers from 's tremor trashed r center in the earth quake zone initially had no spot to work. So they bivouacked to Is design and styling business just outside of Tokyo.
And just what happened next stunned collaborators, recalls , global head connected with interior design for  and Acura.
Doing work elbow to elbow, technicians no longer shot down stylists' committed designs with a dismissive e mail. Plus designers more willingly dialed back fantastical drawings following receiving a face to face dose connected with reality from more grounded engineers.
Both sides riffed off the other person so well that  permanently transferred a large number of engineers to the global layout center last spring. Their arrival is crucial as  rolls out a fresh design language to revitalize the brand.
"Before, engineers saw your designs and said 'So, itrrrs this that you want, eh?'" Asahi said. "Now people say, 'We can't say no.'"
says a overhaul is not only speeding design work but delivering more practical designs that are more technologically advanced, because both sides are more interested in creating something superior.
The stakes are great because  is introducing the new design language with the third age group Fit small car of which went on sale in September inside . Dubbed Exciting H , it can be aimed at returning  to its sporty roots.
"We have lost a bit of our own sportiness while retaining good operation," said Toshinobu Minami, global manager for exterior design in the carmaker's two brands. "First, we want sportiness. One thing I want most is to retrieve our uniqueness."
The look overhaul of 's product selection targets both exterior design   long criticized for ho sound looks   and the interior, that was panned as cheap and plasticky in the debut of the latest Social sedan.
Keywords of the doctrine: High Touch, High Tech and Tension.
Minami and Asahi adopted this English terms   used even just in    for a common language that could be simply Dieser Artikel ist nicht dazu gedacht sein grasped in 's much flung design studios in America, Asia and inspecteren europe.
High Touch refers to superior surface treatments and the using of top grade materials, an obvious rebut to the Civic critics.
High Strain denotes a more muscular position and a more engaging seat.
High Tech is realized throughout the extensive use of touchpad regulates on the center stack. Meanwhile, Minami's new formula for a the front look, dubbed Solid Mentorship Face, blends the grill into the headlamps, creating a much more futuristic look.
"Face is important," Minami said. "But this is a new cycle. This time, 's new confront integrates the grille and also headlights into one. This Son meurtrier is a new era."
What 's all design duo doesn't want is really a new look just to be completely new. New can quickly become ancient.
"We used to debate the meaning of the latest, what is the value of new. But it's not about old and new,Inches Asahi says. "It has to be stimulating along with emotional."
A better, more exciting stance is critical, Minami says.
Find the third generation Fit.
It features a much more athletic, chiseled search than the outgoing Fit, and that is bubble shaped. And while both are the same width and height, the new design has a more low thrown stance.
Minami says he accomplished this by twisting the car along the sharply creased character collection to push the rear wheels out and pinch the back cabin inward. The line's unexpected Jai essayé de me peser avec avant et après  23 downward bend toward the top wheels lends the feeling of the lower front end.
From the entry, Minami tries to accentuate a larger tread by spacing errors light cowls low and vast near the corners. Though displayed as air intake air vents, they are actually dummies which have been sealed shut. That is to boost aerodynamics. In fact, the lower to be able to grille below the H marker is also part dummy, approximately half the mesh opportunities actually closed.
Improving aerodynamics is another big focus. Minami said the latest Fit achieves a big improvement in drag reduction over the outgoing model, although  declines to give specific figures.
Modifications throughout help cheat your wind:
Taillamps wrap around the edge from the hatchback. They get a razor cleaved wheel to make a clean break with the wind, but because they are translucent plastic, they mitigate a boxy look.
An all new program was designed to keep the car's undercarriage flat by raising bumps in addition to bulges such as the oil baking pan.
