AMPHIBIOUS CAR

Playful and fun, the amphibious car has the advantage of being able to travel from road to water and to reach the desired destination without having to spend time and money working out the logistics of getting there. Moreover, its streamlined driving wheels and its hydrojet propulsion system allows it to quickly deal with unforeseen circumstances (floods). A floating bull specially adapted for rapid de-gauging is motorized by the same engine as that carrying the wheels. The propulsion by hydrojet presents no roughness or sharp elements which could injure a pedestrian or a swimmer.

The control of aerodynamic lift and support is passed on to an aerofoil with sizeable variable incidence. This facilitates the de-gauging and road holding. The front boot can carry suitcases or picnics in the event that you wish to stop for a little break on an island. This amphibious car is entirely in compounds and is unsinkable: once again reliability and safety are maximised. The top speed depends on the motorization, but we recommend at least 200 horsepower for excellent performance and an out of the ordinary driving and navigation pleasure.
