HAHA, sure why not... They might as well have incorporated a solar sail so it could transport you to Mars, has about equal chance of being produced. The team is a bunch of automotive designers and advertising types no technical or engineering backgrounds to be found.

Serious pants back on though. This is way out there. But I'm not gonna lie, I could see some sue cases for something like this. NATO, Red Cross, etc, could find major utilization of a platform like this.

I’m pretty sure the best use of this design is for Mattel to make a Hot Wheels version.

great departure and and approach angles. Breakover - not even worth calculating apparently. All of these concepts are hilarious. It's like new social media sites a decade ago, just with less chance of actually producing anything.

In a way this eh, thing, speaks to how impressive it was that Rivian struck a balance of novel design, market niche, function, price etc... obviously things can go awry.

AC/DC is already lining up their royalty checks for their Thunderstruck song in the commercials.

Not even reading that article... but post apocalypse.... I'm assuming there is no power grid and all the elites with solar roofs have had their heads cut off by gangs of pirate children who can't even reach the pedals in a cyber truck.... just saying... We're taking apocalypse, right, let's not kid ourselves...
