The most unusual cars in the world

There are so many unusual things in our world that they can be found everywhere. Strange works of art, quaint clothes, interesting architectural structures. Unusual reached and to the car industry. In addition to completely everyday models of cars, there are also some that can delight, make laugh or cause bewilderment.

Diversity

It so happened that unusual cars can be divided into several groups. It's clear that there is no official classification, so we will make our own, which will most clearly reflect the originality of this transport.

So, among the "freaks" machines you can meet:

• Bold design solutions.
• Unusual cover.
• Bizarre materials.
• Three-wheel models.
• The Giants.
• By land and by swimming.
• Lovely trucks.
• Back to the past.

You are not ranked or world top. After all, unusual cars are difficult to distribute in places: someone seems wonderful that for another boring and ordinary.

Bold design solutions

In this group, you can put a huge number of models. Every year the world's machinery exhibitions present us with completely unconventional and amusing projects. They can be fabulously beautiful or simply attractive.

One of such cars became "Japanese" Mitsuoka Orochi. It was released on the market not just as an exhibit. It was sold in small batches for 8 years until 2014. It is also worth mentioning that it is impossible to find this model outside of Japan. Sportcar was purposefully created for the Japanese. They say that in the design of the car lies the image of the famous character of the myths of this country - Yamata no Orochi. Appearance really turned ominous and "dragon".

The next model is Ferrari FF. In general, it is not surprising that the brand of this car got into an article about the unusual cars of the world. Outwardly, of course, he has nothing extravagant. But if you say that this is a normal sports car, I would like to see it on the streets of the CIS countries. By the way, this model became the first all-wheel drive. The three-door hatchback is designed for 4 people. The car appeared in 2011 and still seems some kind of "foundling" in the Italian family of Ferrari.

There are among these handsome and handsome Chevrolet SSR. Despite the fact that this pickup / cabriolet held the market for only 3 years, it became a real miracle for Americans. Its appearance is very ambiguous. The unusual design of the car is similar to the cartoon character. Remained in this car and something from the last century: small round headlights, a large radiator grille and massive wings.

Unusual cover

In order to get your car into an article about the most unusual cars in the world, you just need to paint it interesting. But in addition to graphics, there are often fancy covers on the car. For example, live turf. Sufficiently advantageous option, given that the machines are now harmful to oxygen. Although in practice it turns out that in the cabin too hot, and metal can be damaged.

An interesting project was made by one resourceful inventor. He collected all the unnecessary old computer keyboards and clapped his car. And not just in disagreement, but specially built all the buttons in colors to get the image of Homer Simpson.

There is the slowest Porshe in the world. It looks terrific: it all shines in the sun, shines with gold. Oblekliili it, of course, the usual tape, but managed to add to it presentable. Although the main thing that this car has is its environmental friendliness. The fact is that under the hood you will not find the engine. The basis of the car was a four-wheeled bicycle.

Whimsical Materials

Metal is not always a material for making cars, especially if these are unusual car models. For example, the Japanese again created something interesting - bamboo transport. The car turned out to be not just an exhibit, it copes well with two passengers and maximally accelerates to 40 km / h.

There is in the world one more handsome man - a wooden Sada-Kenbi. The maximum speed of the car is 80 km / h. There is no comfort and no comfort to wait. Also, there is no roof over your head. By the way, this is not the first wooden car. Morgan Motors is a British company that has been operating since the beginning of the last century. Machines made of wood - it's a chip. Until now, the 1938 model has survived.

In 2013, TRW presented a transparent car in Frankfurt. It was developed specifically for fuel advertising. The building is made of plexiglass. All mechanisms in action are noticeable in the work.

Three-wheel models

It turns out that making an auto unusual can lack a fourth wheel. Such specimens are rarely found on the market. Usually they are represented in very small batches. For example, ZAP Xebra served people until 2009. He's awkward, but very funny. Inside, depending on the option, can fit two or four people. In general, its main buyer was China, but the electric car was bought in the US for advertising.

Another unusual three-wheeled car is Carver. It is unfortunate that he was not long in the market, as his appearance simply amazes. By the way, he ceased to exist because of the developer's bankruptcy, who did not have enough strength to effectively advertise the model.

But Campagna T-Rex was able to become a friend to many buyers. It is successful and has been on the market for 20 years. During this time has been modified several times. Now has a very unusual look. In some countries it is considered a motorcycle.

Giants

It turns out that there is a jeep in the UAE, whose weight is 4,400 kilograms. This is a four-fold increase in the copy of the original car on which General Patton drove. Now its owner is Sheikh Hamad Nahyan.

In America, bigfoots are a popular phenomenon. Usually such monsters weigh up to 8 tons. The engines have a capacity of up to 1300 "horses". Such giants can crush any mediocre sedan. Bigfoots certainly do not travel on roads, most often they are used in auto show.

By land and by swimming

Many developers were focused on creating not just mediocre cars, but also unusual cars in the world. You can see a photo of this in the article. Among them you can see and floating transport.

The fact is that auto amphibians have been trying to do for a long time. But they were not successful, so they went only to the stage of the exhibit and small-scale issue. For example, Aquada was released in 2003. This car is created on the basis of the boat bottom. The body looks like a small boat. Interesting is that the software can determine the depth of water and hide the wheels in just 6 seconds. On land, Aquada rides up to 150 km / h, and on water 50 km / h.

No less interesting project was Rinspeed Splash. Switzerland in 2004 decided to surprise the world with such an amphibious car. The machine literally soars above the surface of the water. Developers have applied the effect of hydrofusion, worked on special underwater wings and a propeller. This water sports car on land accelerates to 200 km / h, and on water to 80 km / h.

Lovely trucks

It would seem that the unusual can be in the truck? For example, the French Aixam-Mega MultiTruck has a very bizarre look. It has several variants of bodies, among which there is even a dumper. Despite its compact size, it is still not understood among the French. Perhaps it's not the appearance that is to blame, but the price is 15 thousand euros.

India pleased with its mini-truck - Tata Ace Zip. This kid is a truck, inside of which runs an engine for 11 horsepower. Nevertheless, such ridiculous indicators allow the car to carry cargo up to 600 kg and passengers.

Back to the past

It is worth saying that the unusual cars were in the past. Perhaps, there it is possible to meet the greatest number of "freaks", which were created absolutely by accident, and not as now - for the sake of shocking and show.

In 1923, an unusual Stout Scarab appeared. This space car, even for that era was very futuristic. Of course, this kind could not lead to frenzied popularity, besides, the price for it was also very high - $ 5,000. The car remained only 9 copies for sale and 2 - for exhibitions.

But the "Japanese" Mazda R360 at one time became very popular. Acquired more than 60 thousand copies of this model. And this is only for 6 years, until 1966. The machine and by today's standards is very nice. It accommodated four passengers, could accelerate to 80 km / hour.

In this article you will find some photos of unusual cars. Below you can see the famous champion of the BMW Isetta 300. The model has turned out to be popular. It was issued since 1956, and for six years 160 thousand copies were sold. The car had only one door, a very strange and unusual design. Nevertheless, it was this car that triggered the further victories of the Bavarian concern.

Among the unusual cars - still a lot of shocking and extravagant. Especially if we consider the exhibits of this time. Someone specially develops a fancy car design, but someone's unusual turns out by itself. There are cars in the form of shoes, flying or soaring cars. There is an interesting vehicle from Eric Tan or a project on solar panels.
