Sleek and stylish, the Karma Amaris extended-range electric vehicle (EREV) may look somewhat familiar to some. Why? It’s built on an evolved version of the all-aluminum spaceframe from the Karma Revero, with a futuristic body made of carbon fiber and aluminum.
JohnnyQ90 may have built the world’s smallest V8-powered R/C truck, and it’s not just for show. This truck, styled as a square-body Chevy pickup, features a 44cc liquid-cooled Cison V8 engine—larger than the typical 28cc TOYAN engines found in these builds.
Unveiled in June 2000 at the Turin Motor Show, the Ferrari Rossa concept was Pininfarina’s way of marking their 70th anniversary—pretty fitting for a company that’s been shaping Ferrari’s look since the 1950s. Designed by Ken Okuyama (the guy who later penned the Enzo Ferrari), the Rossa is a two-seat speedster built on the bones of a Ferrari 550 Maranello.
