2004 Peugeot Quark Concept , this think is sick!!!! 17-inch alloy wheels wrapped in custom-made Michelin rubber. two person occupancy. with a peak of 295 lb-ft, and that from zero to redline. This allows it to jump to 50 km/h from a standstill in 6.5 seconds, before topping out at 110 km/h. Not bad at all

oh yah, and its street legal in europe!!!!

 

no-one?

 

How much horsepower does it have?

 

"Powering the Quark is not one or two, but four electric motors located on each wheel's hub. The motors are fed power through a complex hydrogen fuel-cell system developed by Montreal-based hybrid-specialist TM4. The benefit of electric power isn't in horsepower, with each wheel-mounted unit only peaking at 10 with continuous output only 3.4, for a peak total of 40 hp. Torque is what really moves the Quark, its engines featuring a constant surge of 74 lb-ft with a peak of 295 lb-ft, and that from zero to redline. This allows it to jump to 50 km/h from a standstill in 6.5 seconds, before topping out at 110 km/h. Not bad at all."


IMO it seems way underpowered for its super fast look

 

and if it goes into production, not many people know how to fix a hydrogen motor if one of those things goes out on you.

 

"As logical as the Quark may seem to some, it's one hundred percent unlikely that it will ever be built. The Quark is simply Peugeot's creative way of showing the world that it is hot on the trail of hydrogen power. As for the design itself, Peugeot may adopt some styling cues for its future scooters and lightweight two-wheelers. If there's one thing to be learned from the Quark that's certain, it's that the French are not just dreaming."

never mind what i said before ill shut up now.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

 

Saw it in the current autoweek, too bad its only a concept.

 

I REALLY hope you mean MPH and not KM/H...because 110KM/H top speed is pretty $hit(I can do that on a 73cc bike).And 0 to 50KM/H in 6.5secs(I could do that with a 50cc MOPED!). [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

 

Looks neat, but I'd definately buy a crotch rocket or chopper before that thing.
