# Jet-Like Super Car Acabion GTBO By Ben Preiss | Published 2008-02-07 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acabion-gtbo-goes-into-production-and-leaves-bugatti-veyron-in-the-dust References: [gizmag](http://www.gizmag.com/acabion-gtbo-faster-than-a-bugatti-veyron/8777/) & [thebikergene](http://www.thebikergene.com/custom-bikes/bugatti-veyron-forced-to-eat-acabion-gtbos-dust/#more-37) At only 20% throttle the Acabion GTBO two wheeler (four at low speed) passes the [Bugatti Veyron](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bugatti-veyron-pur-sang-just-5-in-the-world)'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](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bugatti-project-lydia). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 55% | Activity: 7% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Jet-like Body:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore the use of jet-like bodies in other vehicles to enhance speed and performance. - **High Speeds:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop technologies that can enable vehicles to achieve even higher speeds than the Acabion GTBO. - **Astronaut-like Experience:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create vehicles that provide an astronaut-like experience, mimicking the sensation of flying a jet. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Automotive:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate jet-inspired design elements into cars to create a futuristic and high-performance aesthetic. - **Aerospace:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Apply the principles of jet-like bodies to aircraft design to improve speed and efficiency. - **Personal Transportation:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop personal transportation devices that offer extreme speed and a unique sensory experience, similar to the Acabion GTBO. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [High-Performance Hybrid Sports Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2026-bugatti-tourbillon.md) - [Ultra-Powerful Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bo-the-turbo.md) - [Audaciously Powerful Hypercars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/powerful-hypercars.md) - [Breakneck Speed Electric Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lucid-air-grand-touring-performance.md) - [Exoskeleton-Free Hypercar Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bugatti-bolide.md) - [Old-Fashioned Kiddy Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baby-bugatti-ii-carbon-edition.md) - [Carbon-Loaded Luxury Sports Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2027-bentley-continental-gt-supersports.md) - [Ultra-Fast One-Person Electric Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airspeeder-mk4.md) - [Exclusive Luxury Supercars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultra-car.md)
