Heuliez Atlantic

The Heuliez Atlantic was a concept car built by the French coachbuilder Heuliez in 1986 and presented at the 1986 Paris Auto Show. It was noted for its vast use of glass and smooth lines, and it measured 3970 mm long, 1600 mm wide and 1150 mm high on a wheelbase of 2420 mm. It was painted with white wheels. Months after the Atlantic appeared, Heuliez created the Stars and Stripes, a convertible version of the Atlantic with removable doors and blue wheels, so the two cars share one design and are often listed side by side among the coachbuilder's show cars. The Atlantic belongs to the run of Heuliez design studies of the 1980s and 1990s that also includes the Raffica, the Intruder and the Pregunta.
