Noble, the British supercar marque, announced the production model for its upcoming Noble M500 supercar. The Noble M500 is the brand's replacement for its existing M600 supercar. However, the M500 will boast a more affordable pricetag than its predecessor, with slightly lowered components to match.
The M500 will include a V-6 engine that delivers approximately 550 horsepower. On top of this, the vehicle no longer includes a carbon fiber body, airbags, or an anti-lock braking system. However, the vehicle will still achieve impressive performance specifications, even when compared to other supercars, and it will only retail for roughly $183,000 USD, rather than the M600 which costs upwards of $300,000 USD.
In terms of its exterior design, the M500 takes notes from popular supercars with its aerodynamic design, its subtle wheel wells, its intake and exhaust vents for the engine, and its open-grille rear and front bumpers.

Trend Themes
1. Affordable Supercars - The trend of producing less expensive but still high-performing supercars allows consumers who may have thought such high-tier vehicles were out of their reach to access them.
2. Streamlining Features - Designing cars with fewer features may be a growing trend as automakers work to create affordable options that can still flex their muscle in terms of performance.
3. Aerodynamic Design - Aerodynamic design will continue to play an important role in the visual appeal of supercars as well as their overall performance capabilities.
Industry Implications
1. Automotive Manufacturing - Manufacturing companies specializing in automotive vehicles could diversify by creating more affordable supercars.
2. Luxury Goods and Services - Luxury product companies could benefit from supercars like the Noble M500 through partnerships for items such as yacht and private jet designs.
3. Sports and Recreation - With more consumers having access to affordable supercars, the sports and recreation industry could expand by offering more racing experiences and higher-end rental options.
