The DeLorean Next Generation Motors Model-JZD has been shown off as an [ultra-modern sports car](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/california-corvette) that pays homage to an iconic vehicle from the 80s. The vehicle boasts recognizable gull-winged doors along with a sculpted wedge form for the body that will call to mind the original [DMC-12](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delorean-e) from the early 1980s. The car has a series of lights for an almost cyberpunk aesthetic that will perfectly balance out the ultra-modern vehicle with a touch of retro styling.

The DeLorean Next Generation Motors Model-JZD is expected to start being produced in January 2023 with deliveries taking place at the end of 2023. The company was formed by Kat DeLorean, the daughter of the [DeLorean Motor Company](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delorean-motor-company) founder John DeLorean.
