The Falen, also known as "Concept 17.1", is a supercar concept in development by the Scottish design studio Dowdeswell and Hardie. The name Falen comes from the name for an old Scottish spirit. Dowdeswell and Hardie says that the Falen will exist as a prototype by early 2009, and that the production version will be unveiled at the Geneva Show in March of the same year. Production will be limited to only four cars, two colored black, and two colored white. Dowdeswell and Hardie claim that it will market the Falen as a track day special.
