Webasto LigHT Concept

Webasto, the German automotive supplier of aftermarket heaters, ventilation systems, sunroofs, and convertible tops, has released images and information on its 2008 Geneva Motor Show-bound LigHT (Light Hybrid Top) concept car. The vehicle's prominent feature is its frameless polyurethane folding roof, installed on a vehicle designed by the Istituto Europeo di Design to recall the classic Fiat 124 Spider (although we see some Fiat Dino Spider in there as well).

The convertible roof folds flat when stowed, sitting completely level with the car's body lines for both aerodynamic and aesthetic purposes. The concept will also feature Webasto's new Liquid Heat Generator (LHG), an auxiliary heating system that generates warmth using turbulence in the engine's coolant.
