Bizarre 260mph amphibious supercar could let mega-rich owners skip traffic queues and drive to work along the Thames - lithium air battery
Designed a strange amphibious supercar that can make its giant
Wealthy owners beat traffic by going to work by water.
Inspired by Bugatti Weilong, the future car is said to have a land-based maximum speed of more than 260mph.
Called AmphiX, theelectric-
The electric motor can also reach the highest speed of 90 miles/hour on the water.
The equivalent of ahleigh-
Power speed boat up to 80 knots per hour.
The design of the amphibious supercar makes its wheels take back when entering the water, and has a high
Power Propulsion system similar to jet aircraftski.
But while it may be a solution to the UK traffic problem for the lucky few, it is predicted to bring 2.
5 million price tag.

Rich drivers, if this concept is to fall to the ground, will require a lot of investment.
The innovation project is the idea of North Chen Nan, who put forward these plans in the last year of the university's project.
Chen Nan, from Melbourne, Australia, said he designed Amphi-
After reading an article in Top Gear magazine, X describes the lack of decent amphibious vehicles on the market.
Unlike ordinary amphibious vehicles, Amphi-
X has space for four people to compete with the world's most expensive supercars.
The designer claims that the car, made of carbon fiber and aluminum, will run from 0-60mph in 2. 4 seconds.
Driven by lithium-
The canopy of the air battery car will also be made of special solar cell glass, which will charge the battery when it moves.
The car also features a unique tire design, which means that it is not only able to travel on any terrain, but also provides the driver with the ability to manipulate the vehicle in any direction --
Make parking easy.
30-year-old designer Bei Chennan said: "The whole project took a year from research, concept development, clay modeling and prototyping.
"Many major cities are blocked by cars, but almost every major city in the world has a set of virtually unused arterial waterways that go straight through it.
"We can take advantage of the river or waterway to turn every stressful journey into a pleasant cruise along the beach or river, not a heavy traffic.
"The size and size of this car is inspired by the exotic sports car Lamborghini Aventador or Bugatti Weilong, giving it the aesthetics of a super sports car. "The Amphi-
X is mainly designed for the affluent markets in Dubai.
This will be in the same category as Ferrari Enzo or the limited edition bugatevilong, which costs $3. 4 million (£2. 6 million).
"Hopefully one day there will be some potential investors or companies that want to make this dream come true and it will be a dream.
