“…that improve braking, handling, and directional stability.” You wouldn’t know it from the video. It slowed down considerably around each curve. The extra friction must kill the speed and fuel economy and I betcha the tires wear a lot faster than normal too.

Did someone really say why? It explains why. And to simply say ‘ugly’ is just simple minded.
This post was wasted on a bunch of ‘aesthetic’ minded fools. There is much more to design than looks. Besides the fact that this thing is gorgeous for a 6 wheeled mutt. Most new concepts are considered ugly at first.
Awesome that there are designers out there finally thinking outside the box for function as well AND aesthetics.

Very beautifull car, it looks very similar to a Ferrari. People say that is ugly only because it’s different than they see on the road. Must be very safe, especially on bracking. Like someone said: new concepts are considered ugly at first. Must be very fun to drive.
