His SC90 concept looks like what might happen if Volvo and Aston Martin had a wild, purely superficial affair that resulted in a beautiful love child. Bansasine created the concept for an internship for Volvo Monitoring and Concept Center, so it’s not quite as far-fetched as many independent designers’ concepts.
