Top 5 Unique Vehicles of the World



To design a vehicle is not an easy task rather it is a science as well as an art. All of the disciplines like engineering, physics, chemistry, metallurgy, computer science etc are compulsory to make a perfect machine. In the past few years, however, vehicle manufacturers have put forward some unique ideas. They are ranked as “Strange-O-Meter”. In this article we have listed 5 most strange vehicles of the world. These strange vehicles are of so numerous categories that it is very difficult to categorize them in top 5 as all of them are unique in some aspect. Thus, this classification is made on the basis of three simple rules:

1.Only those who were made within almost the last decade are considered.

2.Those who actually worked properly are included.

3.The vehicle must have at least one aspect that makes it publically impractical.

By these creations, the manufacturers elaborate the general extent of imagining the possibilities especially in the field of vehicles. They give you a hope to get more efficient and adventurous rides which will give you more fun. Let’s have a look.

1: Dodge Tomahawk
The Dodge Tomahawk motorcycle is included in the list as it doesn’t even have a drop of practicality in it, even with the Viper V-10 engine is of 500-horsepower that gives you a speed of almost 400 miles per hour. It was revealed in North American International Auto Show in Detroit. If the huge semi-tractor type structure with stubby handlebars is ignored by you as compared to the top speed of it then you can have your own only in $500,000. But remember that they are not street legal yet. Many of them are sold in North at the same price. See if you dare to ride.

5: Terrafugia Transition
The so called “roadable aircraft” has a history behind its creation. As we all know the problems being faced by those who have to travel through the airplanes. Checked luggage fee and reaching airport are two main problems. If you don’t have a conveyance of your own you are dependent on a friend or relative to drop you to airport otherwise you have to get help from public transit; an additional expense of fare and parking fee.Terrafugia is a Bostonbased aircraft company. They decided to solve this general problem so they designed and created the Terrafugia Transition.The Terrafugia Transition works as a dual vehicle. It collects the passengers as a street automobile and then at the time of take off the fold-down stubby pair of wings is activated. The craft has a rear mounted pusher propeller that launches it. It runs on the runways and then launches in the sky. It is a good effort to solve the general transportation problems.
