Can you imagine the look you would get when people see this for the first time! It looks like KTM got their inspiration from Transformers.

I love it because it is so different to other, like-minded offerings. It would need to be road-registerable and RHD for mine, plus a small storage area for an overnight bag.

I wouldnt necessary take this car out for shopping, but HELL YEAH on a race track. There, it does not matter if its a LHD – just want to experience the power of this lightweight on a track. Dont like the Efin, weird looking though, X Bow looks just like a bulllet. ABT is also renowned for its awesome engine works, so I will be watching Ramspeed and maybe one day they do a track day with that car. I will be there.

Cdc – the fact that its LHD doesn’t necessarily mean that you can’t road register it here in Oz because you can still road register cars that are LHD in certain states of Australia – SA and WA.
The maun thing that matters is whether or not it meets Australian Design Regulations

Fail to see the attraction of these other than belting them round a race track. Driven on the road you’ll only attract the Fuzz and be labelled a Hooner.
Besides it costs twice as much as the Axiel and isn’t much faster.

no road registered, LHD only, buy a Elfin instead!

Yes, this engine will be very reliable, it is afterall similar to the one in Golf GTi. However, having seen videos of this car, the engine is almost silent. I think engine noise is a big part of driving enjoyment
