He ended up starting an automobile business, too

Kanye West has recently achieved great success in the fashion industry through the YEEZY brand. Recently, a model believed to be his new car is rapidly spreading through social media. At first glance, the car looks like a huge coffin. The uniqueness of the visuals is quite significant.

So what are the facts? To cut to the chase, that car does not belong to Kanye West. Fake information was produced as rumors spread online that it was Kanye West’s car. The Dutch designer United Nude created this concept car model, of which only four exist globally, for brand promotion purposes.

And Yes, It Can Actually Drive

This car, called Lo-Res, is said to have been produced by changing the appearance of the Lamborghini Countach to low resolution and then materializing the shape. The manufacturing method was also original and in line with the meaning of low resolution, which means it was innovative when first released and even won a design award. Despite its seemingly impractical exterior, the Lo-Res is fully drivable, adding another layer to its unique features.

A 5 kW single motor is said to be mounted on the rear wheel, enabling driving at the level of a golf cart. This futuristic-looking vehicle has no doors, which means the access is done once actuators lift the body at the press of a button. Seating is for two in tandem on rigid, non-removal black leather seats.

It has been sold at auction in the past, but what are the chances of mass production?

Fake rumors circulated that this concept car, known for its strange design, was Kanye West’s new car, possibly because of his affinity for unique and intricate designs. This car was sold at an auction in 2021 for $111,111.

The proceeds from the auction were donated to museums and environmental organizations at the time. What are the chances of mass production? Although the possibility is not entirely impossible, there is currently no accurate information regarding mass production plans. However, considering the recent case of the Tesla Cybertruck, there seems to be no problem thinking more positively about the mass production of that model.
