Veeco RT – Electric tricycle

The vehicle is designed and manufactured in Portugal, is a joint development of VE local company and one of the largest technical universities in Lisbon. One of the main tasks of the producers was to construct a good looking car that differs from other elektrichki market. So they bet on tricycle with two wheels in front and one behind. The rear wheel is connected to an electric charge to drive the vehicle.
Its power is just 108 hp, but thanks to the torque of 450 Nm, Veeco RT is able to accelerate from standstill to 100 km / h in just 8 seconds. The maximum speed is 160 km.

FXX

The FXX is the fruit of Ferrari's know-how in building special, limited-series sports cars combined with its racing experience. The car will provide the basic framework on which the specifics of future extreme models will be worked out.

The exceptionally powerful FXX delivers absolutely blistering performance on all fronts. The FXX has not been homologated for road use, and thus will not be a competition model. It will be used exclusively on the track as part of a specificongoing research and development programme, featuring this first-ever group of Client Test Drivers. The FXX is powered by an imposing 6,262 cc V12 engine that can punch out over 800 hp at 8,500 rpm.


Its gearbox is the result of the transfer of F1 strategies, delivering gear-change times of under 100 ms. This is almost as fast as the F1 single-seaters, themselves the absolute pinnacle of current technological achievement.

The FXX's aerodynamic design is particularly innovative too, resulting in a shape that produces 40% higher down-force than ever achieved before. It is also possible to adjust the FXX's mobile spoiler configuration to suit the specific circuit.
