Car Designer

HC Aetherion

The HC Aetherion is the first car design by Hewitt Cherry. It is a concept car, designed to be a racing prototype, meant to compete in and win at races such as the 24 Hours Of Le Mans, as well as being a road legal luxury hypercar.

Design

The HC Aetherion is designed to be a low drag, yet high downforce car, able to achieve high top speeds and high cornering speeds. The car is designed around Ground Effect aerodynamics, using the airflow underneath the car to generate large amounts of downforce, while keeping drag low. The HC Aetherion has two front diffusers, which generate front downforce, and a large rear diffuser, generating significant rear downforce. The car also has many design elements designed to reduce drag. The overall shape of the HC Aetherion is sleek, and low, and the car features air stream channels in from of each of its wheels, as well as aerodynamic wheel covers, reducing drag.

The HC Aetherion is all wheel drive. The car is powered by a low displacement, high-revving V10 engine, which powers the rear wheels through a 7-Speed Sequential Gearbox, and a compact yet powerful electric motor, which powers the front wheels, and is capable of regenerative braking. The HC Aetherion has double wishbone pushrod front and rear suspension, designed to keep the car stable through corners. The car utilizes two large cooling inlets to feed its radiators and to feed air to the engine, which are located on the top surface of the car, in between the front of the cockpit and either front wheel arch. The cooling outlets of the car are located on the top surface of the car, in between the rear of the cockpit and either rear wheel arch, serving to vent hot air from the radiators, as well as to allow for the exhaust from the engine to exit. The HC Aetherion also has front brake cooling ducts, located on the front of the front wheel arches and directly next to the inlets for the front air stream channels. The rear brake ducts of the car are located at the rear wheel arches, on the top surface of the car.

The HC Aetherion is designed to be lightweight, weighing less than 1000 kilograms, and extensively utilizing advanced carbon fibres and composite materials in its construction. The car is designed to have 2 seats, and both the driver and the passenger are sat extremely low in the car. The HC Aetherion is 183 inches (464.82 cm) long, 72 inches (182.88 cm) wide, and 31 inches (78.74 cm) tall.

Design Process

The design of the HC Aetherion started out as sketches of ideas for car designs that Hewitt Cherry had several years ago. Hewitt Cherry extensively revised and improved upon the design, integrating and optimizing various aerodynamic elements and features in a sleek, elegant design. He then set about modeling the design. Hewitt Cherry then designed the HC Aetherion in CAD software. He then rendered the CAD model to create high quality images and videos of the HC Aetherion. The HC Aetherion was completed and published in January, 2026.
