Nice-looking pre-concept 2-seater car thx to designer Marc Mainville of the Hyundai Kia America Design Center.
The Sidewinder has a more than interesting power plant: the compressed natural gas turbine engine provides power to high-torque in-wheel electric motors.
Built for drifting competitions.

this car is the best!!!!!!!!!!
All i have to say is WOW! i have a Cadillac northstar motor that i am going to make something with. Out of all the ideas and drawings that i could come up with, this car stood out so much that i am going to try to make mine like somewhat similar to it. The rear open wheel look will look so good with the style that i was trying to go for. But i kept making drawings that made the open wheel design in front of the car. WOW! I am going to make this my backround.. WOW! i am so super excited. lol
this concept is too far fetched as far as its kia parts are concerned. its exterior looks like a toy racing car, the exhausts at the back does not make sense, it just doesnt live up to modern engrng.
It does seem like all eye candy and no practicality. Still, it’d be cool if this thing could work.
