Local Motors – Rally Fighter

Being an off-road enthusiast and living in Phoenix, AZ I am happy to see this concept come to life. I have seen it a number of times on a Saturday night at the Pavilions in Scottsdale, and every time I can’t take my eyes off of it.  It is as bad ass in real life as it looks in pictures.

The Rally Fighter is powered by a BMW 3.0 liter twin-turbo clean diesel sporting 265 ponies and a striking 425 pound-feet of torque at only 1750rpm that are directed to the rear wheels through a 6-speed automatic transmission. The Rally Fighter is lightweight at only 3,200 pounds which allows for exceptional performance and efficiency.

Honda Skydeck Concept Minivan

Ok, this is one minivan I might consider in the future, but only of it has a 200hp electric motor on each wheel. 🙂
