That is insane. It looks like something out of transformers. And those wheels.....are not even wheels. I really like this.

As for the wheels I seen them in a foxtel show the other month and they are great, you can drive the car side ways like a crab. So you can forget all about revers parking with them on :lol:

Hey buddy, I will just park it in my carpark of my central Sydney apartment, then I can cruise Bondi whenever I want...

Nah, that's not true...

I thought I should use a simple descriptive that you guys/gals would understand... If I had said "rolling down oriental parade" you would have no idea what the hell I was talking about would ya?

:facepalm:

Aaaaaaand you get the idea (wouldn't think that was New Zealand would ya? 8O )

BACK ON TOPIC!

I don't see any driveshafts, is it electric? Those hubs look very similar to F1 hubs, but do they contain electric motors? Or is it purely an artists impression at this point? Any word of mechanical specs?

EDIT!

Found my answer:
Mitsubishi MMR25 multi-terrain vehicle, omnidirectional wheels - eight independently controlled motors

The Mitsubishi MMR25 showcases a shocking look, with multi-terrain, omnidirectional wheels which consist of eight independently-controlled motors, allowing for “8 x 4â€

I have an uncanny ability to get everything done extremely quickly. Things that are time consuming, I script them so they run by themselves (I obviously work in IT). I am classed as "extremely efficient" here

Now hoping that these computers I have running by themselves don't have me kicked out of my job... ...luckily I am the only one with passwords and that knows what I have done!
