Hmmn, their website seems a little OTT, but I like the form factor of the car/truck.
Looks like it might be a useful combination of capabilities if it works. Sort of an offroad buggy with good on-road capabilities.

I guess that is really what I was getting at...the dream/fantasy factor rather than the concept.
If the guy builds it then good luck to him.

Hmmm. Looks to me like one of those things that push airliners back off the stand.

Maybe he's sponsored by Tonka
It might have one of those completely chrome V16 engines with the massive exhausts................

I don't often slag off other peoples creations, but what a total unutterable pile of excrement, it almost makes a Hummer look good & as
already said, is nothing more than a clever bit of CAD manipulation - awful long way from being a vehicle!
Let's just hope it never gets further than fantasy
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

If those are 15" wheels and tyres then the cabin is very small

Don't mind the looks personally, but "titanium monocoque" on its own means it's unlikely to ever get to the road in that
specification.
What's the transaxle all about though? sounds like the guy is building a vehicle to show off his patented design.

Imagine what it would be like to drive,if the wheels were out of balance, or the power steering failed?......

Production od 1 car per month with the mentioned specifications?
I would be very surprised if they make even a running prototype.
