Mitsubishi MMR25 Rally Racer Enter the LA Design Challenge
How do you like this concept car in the pictures here? It’s the MMR25 Rally Racer from Mitsubishi and it’s the model chosen to enter this year’s LA Auto Show design competition. Last year’s theme was “green” and this year’s theme is Motorsport 2025.
The MMR25 certainly looks like the future race car. It works on four lightweight, high-efficiency, in-wheel electric motors. Their output will be boosted by eight additional motors. The batteries will get you about 1,000 miles on a charge. Besides keeping the much needed power, the batteries will also lower the center of gravity bringing better stability to the table.
If you think the wheels are funny that’s because the MMR25 has an “8×4″ wheel drive. Every single wheel has an independently controlled electric motor. Driving, drifting, moving sideways is now possible with this unique concept.
The driver sits inside the center wing. There’s no actual windows but the driver has a 360-degree panoramic screen which will display all the images around him like he would see them through a glass.
Well do I get one? I only have about 17 years to wait for it!
