Strange vehicles: Jeep Hurricane

The Jeep Hurricane concept claims to be the most maneuverable, most capable, and most powerful 4x4 ever built.

Powered by two 5.7-liter HEMI engines, one in the front and one in the back, making a total of 670 horsepower, driving all 4 wheels the power is certainly there. And with fully controllable 4 wheel steering so is the maneuverability.

So the claims are probably true!

Strange vehicles: Tango T600At 39 inches the Tango is 5 inches narrower than a Honda Gold Wing motorcycle. The Tango T600, costing $85,000 USD (!), is a two seat luxury, high performance vehicle with a carbon fibre body, race-tuned suspension, Connolly leather interior, and a 400-watt stereo. With 1,000 ft lbs of torque coming from two electric motors driving the rear wheels, the T600 can reach 60 MPH in 4 seconds and a top speed of 150 mpWith the driver and passenger sitting in tandem (one behind the other) the Tango T600 was designed to help with the growing congestion and parking problems associated with modern day cities. Also because the T600 is a zero emissions vehicle it is exempt from many tax, congestion and parking regulations. Saved money you can put towards the payments!

Nice idea. But to be fair it is hideous.

Blastolene Special 'Tank Car'

Owned by the popular and charasmatic American chat show host, Jay Leno, the 'Tank Car' is one of the most powerful cars on the planet

The Blastolene Special, built by Randy Grubb, is powered by a 29 litre WWII M47 Patton tank engine, hence the name, obviously.

This gigantic engine puts out 1600 bhp @ 2800 rpm and 1600 ft lbs of torque at 2400 rpm. All this power is run through an Allison HD4060 6 speed automatic gearbox, giving the 9 tonne Tank Car a 0-60 sprint time of 6.2 seconds and a top speed of 140 mph.
