The ARC 787B represented the evolution of the original racing truck platform, pushing the design language toward a more aggressive and performance-driven identity.
Developed as a next-generation concept, the project explored stronger proportions, sharper surfaces, and a more dynamic visual presence while maintaining the engineering requirements of a highly competitive racing vehicle.
The result was a machine that expressed speed, power, and character—where engineering became attitude
OVERVIEW ARC 787b Gen2
CHALLENGE
Evolution is often more difficult than invention.
The ARC 787B Gen2 was challenged to push an already established design language beyond its original vision. The objective was not simply to redesign a racing truck, but to create a machine that felt faster, bolder, and more emotionally engaging while respecting the engineering, regulations, and production constraints that define professional motorsport.
DESIGN THINKING
Performance should be visible before the engine starts.
Every design decision pursued a stronger visual attitude through sharper proportions, cleaner surface transitions, and a more purposeful stance. Rather than adding complexity, the process focused on expressing confidence with fewer, more deliberate gestures—transforming engineering into a visual statement that reflected the competitive spirit of Super Copa's next generation.
REFLECTION
The ARC 787B reinforced one of the most valuable lessons of my career: evolution is driven by intention, not by excess. It taught me that the strongest designs are those that know exactly what to amplify and what to leave behind. More than a new race truck, it became an exercise in maturity—proving that every new generation should feel inevitable, yet impossible to ignore.
