Onxy Hybrid Scooter

Peugeot Hybrid Onyx Scooter Concept

French car manufacturer, Peugeot, started out as a coffee mill back in the early 1800’s and produced its first automobile in 1891. Although the company is mostly associated with manufacturing cars and vans, Peugeot also has a large line of scooters ranging from small 50cc, to larger displacement scooters as high as 500cc. The French company currently offers 21 different scooter models of various displacements as well as an innovative electric motor.

Peugeot will be presenting an all-new three wheeled Onyx Scooter Concept, inspired by the 680hp Onyx Hybrid Supercar Concept, at the 2012 Paris Motor Show. The matte black and copper color scheme is very similar to the Onyx Supercar Concept. The 400cc Onyx Scooter will feature a plug-in hybrid engine and will be available in two different configurations: Urban Mode and Sport Mode.

Explore The Ocean Floor With Subwing

First there was cruising above the surface of the water with the Jetlev R200, and then came the not so cool Aquaskipper, where you use human power to propel yourself across the surface of the water in a very lame looking contraption.

And now we have the Subwing, where you get to glide under water as a dolphin would. It’s basically a small wing you hold on to while being pulled along by a boat. The Subwing allows you to move sideways, twist, and even dive. Based on what I saw in the video below, one could hurt themselves if not careful. But then again, that can apply to anything.

Luxury Motor Home Monaco Vesta 2 PBS

2011 Monaco Vesta 32 PBS – Ultimate Luxury Road Trip Motor Home

Luxury Motor Home Monaco Vesta 2 PBS

I’ve always wanted to do a road trip from British Columbia all the way down to Miami, FL and I think I’m going to skip out on renting an SUV and go all out (if finances permit). The new Monaco Vesta 2 PBS takes road trips to a whole new level with the ridiculous amount of luxury that can be found on board the luxury motor home.

The Monaco Vesta luxury motor home is a beast on the road measuring 8-feet in width, 32-feet in length, and 11-feet and 7-inches in height. The motor home features a massive 6.4 liter V8 diesel engine mated to an Allison 2500 MH transmission, full air suspension, and air brakes. The engine maker for this vehicle, Navistar, have developed an engine that produces low emissions and offers better fuel efficiency through advanced EGR emission controls. In this class of motor homes, diesel coaches are generally pretty uneconomical when it comes to burning fuel.

The Jungle Yacht – Explore Like Attilio Gatti

Any man worth his salt knows that an old machine is a good machine. It’s reliable, it’s got flair, and most of all it brings a certain bold arrogance to anything it does. I’m talking your 66’ Shelby Mustangs and the Triumph Café Racers, bold machines for bold men. Now, as I’m in the market for a travel vehicle to help me drive around the 48 continental United States, I’ve stumbled upon a little gem. Gentlemen, I give you “The Jungle Yacht”!

This beauty hails from a time when men were men, and your summer travel included hiking through the Congo. Created by International Harvester, this beauty was a custom home on wheels for Italian explorer Commander Attilo Gatti and

Sexy Retro-Mod – Holdon EFIJY Concept Car

The Holden EFIJY concept car from Australia has been around since 2005 but I somehow missed it.  For those of you that also didn’t see it earlier, here it is.  The car was designed by Richard Ferlazzo and is a wild take on the Holden FJ, “Australia’s most famous car” and the name is derived from that, eFiJy.

The EFIJY has hot-rod styling from the 1950’s and technology from the 21st century.  Painted in Soprano Purple, the car seems to change color depending on lighting and the angle you’re looking from.  The EFIJY is powered by a 6.0 liter LS2 V8 engine producing 645 horsepower at 6,400 rpm and 560 lb. ft. of torque at 4,200 rpm.  The car rides on 20 x 9 inch rims in the front and 22 x 10 inch rims in the back.
