Rinspeed will present its new sQuba, the worlds first diving car, at the Geneva Motor Show (March 6-16). The car is not only able to drive on roads autonomously with a push of a button (thus without a driver, passenger or further assistance), but can also transform into an amphibious vehicle which can be submerged in water up to 10 meters (33 feet). An electric motor with powerful torque drives the rear wheels, while the propulsion on the water is ensured by two propellers in the stern and two powerful jet drives in the bow propelling the vehicle under water while diving. When underwater, the driver and passenger are enclosed in the vehicle thanks to light weight body components made of futuristic Carbon Nano Tubes and are supplied with fresh breathing air by the self-contained on-board system.
Tube Hoppers Commentary:
Wow, what a concept for a new car! Tube Hopper thinks though that if he ever gets in one of these, it will have a roof! Can you imagine the time and planning that went into making this car run underwater. Not only must it have airtight engine parts but also every other feature of the car like the dashboard and the gearstick etc must all be sealed units too. What an amazing invention. James Bond eat your heart out! Check it out below:
