Koenigsegg NLV Quant - supercars can be green too you know!

A Koenigsegg supercar made of one gigantic piece of high-tech solar panel that runs purely on electrons? Yes exactly, this is no joke. The Quant is the offspring of the latest Koenigsegg-NLV (NLV Solar AG) partnership, its a four-passenger coupe with an electric motor driving each rear wheel. The combined output of this unique package is 512 horsepower, which is expected to bring the supercar from knot to 60 in about five seconds. La Vecchia explained at this year’s Geneva Motor Show that the so-called Flow Accumulator Energy Storage (FAES) invented by NLV is a combination of an electro-chemical battery and a redox cell. Each 15-20 minute charge will last you well over 300 miles, that’s ridiculous… yes I know. Remember, its fully electric, not hybrid.The price of this green monster? Nothing has been said just yet, but considering the technology put into this, you will need to be pretty darn rich to be this ‘green’. Here are a few mouth watering pictures below…!

World’s first amphibious Lamborghini

At first we thought this was just another talented photoshop artist at work, but when we explored more we concluded that this swimming (floating) Italian bull was in fact the real thing. You got it, this classically mid-engined Lamborghini Countach designed by amphibious car expert Mike Ryan not only rules the land but also the sea!

Though this Lambo will undoubtedly be much more slower in terms of speed on water, you have to admire the amount of effort that’s been put into this amazing redesign, afterall this is probably the world’s first and only(?) amphibious supercar!
