Jet-Like Super Car - Acabion GTBO (GALLERY)


At only 20% throttle the Acabion GTBO two wheeler (four at low speed) passes the Bugatti Veyron’s top end of 250mph and, helped by its jet-like body, it hits the electronically limited top end of 340mph at 50% throttle. It goes from zero to 300mph in under 30 seconds! You might want to make like an astronaut and wear a diaper for that attempt. With only two inline seats and no trunk you’ll have a great excuse not to take the kids or do any shopping, such a deal! Seriously, driving this thing is probably closer to flying a jet eight inches off the ground than driving a car, it must be insane. Only EUR 540,000 (US $790,000), a bargain compared to something like the Bugatti’s $3 million Project Lydia. Bugatti Veyron owners, and indeed car owners as a group, have been looking very smug since the amazing supercar posted its awesome 250mph top speed and 1000 horsepower acceleration that not even the fastest motorcycles could match. But it seems Acabion has taken the crown back for the bike brigade, with its release of a road-ready streamliner that's capable of beating they Veyron's top speed using only 20% throttle. (gizmag)

This just does not compute. 300 mph in 30 seconds? How? Who? All hype it seems to me.
