Ford Focus Coupé-Cabriolet made entirely of ice

The ice sculpture, already dubbed the coolest car at the show, has been crafted for the last two weeks by a team of sculptors in a giant freezer – set at a chilly minus 10 deg C. The work took a total of 160 hours, but each shift was limited to just 40 minutes because of the severe cold.

The Focus Coupe-Cabriolet sculpture, which is made from 120 separate pieces of crafted ice, was dismantled and then reconstructed on the Ford stand – which was specially reinforced to bear the weight – by a team of 12 specialists.
