Honda hint at the possibility of starting production of the Frankfurt show car Project 2 & 4. In this case, the Japanese "Chariot" challenge Spartan brainchild of Caterham and Ariel.
If you have already started to forget Honda Project 2 & 4, considering his striking experiment with no trade prospects, there was an excellent opportunity to refresh the memory of this stunning concept. Designer show car Pitersson Martin told the publication Top Gear, that showpiece story is not over. "It is the next step. The question is what. The company's slogan - The Power of Dreams. If we do not believe in it, I can not come to work, right? I believe in its potential, "- he said. Pitersson recalled the challenge that stood before Honda conceived to produce airplanes. But in the end, the Japanese created a celestial machine HA-420 HondaJet! "The car is no science fiction" - he gives hope for the future of conveying the "Project".
Still we beg to differ with Mr Pitersson, for Project 2 & 4 at its own fantastic. Single shell, one kind of hinting at his-track destination, equipped with V-shaped 4-cylinder in volume of 999 cubic cm of gran-prix bike RC213V, giving out 215 hp at 13 000 rpm and 118 Nm at 10 500 rpm. Robotic transmission with two clutches and six speeds transmit traction to the rear wheels. Dynamics Project 2 & 4 is not reported, but the 405-kilogram projectile length 3040 mm, obviously, has the character of hypercar. Not like the ordinary Civic hatchback.
Experimental development combines the freedom that gives only the bike, with the maneuverability of the vehicle. Come on it is a public road, and the astounding Ariel Atom, as well as the modification of Caterham Seven can no longer feel safe. However, a trade option will certainly be noticeably different from the exhibition. We believe that will be the passenger seat, and the engine will be replaced by a unit with an elastic character.
