Supercar turned into a Taxi

Within two days the inhabitants of Rome and visit the Italian capital were able to use the services of unusual taxi - Giugiaro Quaranta. This concept was presented at the Geneva Motor Show in 2008, as it turned out now, the prototype was quite workable. Unfortunately witnesses, double lift supercar could only two adult people - in fourth place can seat only child. More images after the break...

For body panels Giugiaro Quaranta hid hybrid propulsion Hybrid Synergy Drive from the Lexus RX400h - 3,3-liter gasoline engine V6, electric motor and CVT, outstanding 268 horsepower and 288 Nm of maximum torque, and in addition, charge batteries from solar panels. Passport acceleration time up to a hundred - about 4,0 seconds.  Photos Via TopSpeed
