This is prototype number 2. This car is Hayabusa powered, full time 4WD with an auxiliary 4 speed transmission (24 forward gears), and on the fly adjustable ride height. The important point of the video is not the drive train but the suspension. The production car is slated to have V8 power and 500+ HP...
We have also worked with companies in Sweden, France, Germany, England, Ukraine and Russia. Greece has had by far the best climate in the winter. As you can probably imagine Russia had the worst.
Is this a joke, a hoax, or an early release of accurate information?
I think the car is really neat, especially at the end of the video where the various body renderings are shown.
But is this REALLY what your next project will be?
Others may know your sense of humor but I do not.
I actually hope this is what you are going to do.
And add this car to my dream car list...

Guys, this is no joke. We will be working on this baby this year. I is one of the most amazing rides you could ever take in your life...That coming from a guy who has driven a lot of Cobras over the years (and Kirkhams too).
It will drive over a curb at 50 mph and you really don't feel anything. Drive it on the tarmac and then off-road. It is crazy. They needed someone to produce it and gave us a call. We spent several days in Greece; the test drive was better than a Cobra and a roller coaster combined.
I'll post pictures of when I climbed the Parthenon. That's no joke either.
I'm now picturing something that blends the suspension of a SCORE off-road champ truck with the nimbleness and semi-exposed frame of an Arial Atom, along with some of the comforts and powertrain dynamics of an all-wheel drive Evo, all wrapped in copius amounts of removal aluminum panels for access and maintenance.
See post #130 for the video posted by Tom Kirkham of this amazing car.
Watch all the way to the end to see renderings of various body styles as the action video is without bodywork and rather... plain

Cool, thanks.

What's the emissions situation using a motorcycle engine in a 4-wheeled vehicle? Safety equipment or is this solely for off-road use only? How's it work in snow and ice...heater and/or defroster?
I believe David already stated that it would be V8 powered. Not to say it wouldn't be a "green" powerplant, but I wouldn't expect a motorcycle powerplant in anything those goes build.
Huh?
