虽然超级跑车曾经在测试中达到每小时550公里的惊人速度,为了安全起见,设计师将它的最大驾驶时速限定在每小时470公里。即便如此,这一速度还是远远超越了“布加提威龙”跑车创造的每小时407公里的公路最快速度世界纪录。 2 I/ E& _- E4 ]! p & V- z" e; q; L4 V; c/ }4 K 引擎容量只有1.4升 2 U" N+ E% e5 J ?1 F 2 D6 ?3 B/ q& k$ T& N" ]4 v 相比“布加提威龙”巨大的16.4升引擎而言,超级跑车使用的引擎明显小巧许多,容量只有1.4升,耗油量也要小得多。超级跑车使用一个容量90升的油箱,在每小时100公里的时速下,跑车能够行驶至少2400公里。 $ v! u+ K; Z$ Z+ }* y Z1 G' k# L8 S) Q1 Y; d" i 超级跑车设有一对辅助轮。跑车全速行驶时辅助轮被挂起,当跑车慢速行驶时,液压臂会将两只辅助轮放下,以维持车体平衡。超级跑车还拥有一部2千瓦的电动引擎,以便在低速行驶时替代柴油引擎,从而达到进一步节省燃料的目的。6 m/ D+ y4 v' \3 P$ g

虽然设计师彼得·马斯库斯博士坚持认为,超级跑车是一辆汽车,不过这款新概念跑车外表看起来更像一辆摩托。它采用摩托引擎,车身和轮胎也采用了摩托的设计,连座位也像摩托一样前后排列。 : d' R" m X3 h' |% q$ P( |. k, c1 Z4 j! Q" q% D
马斯库斯博士告诉记者,“传统跑车的设计起源于四轮马车,它们宽大笨重,并不适合高速行驶。一辆臃肿不堪的跑车显然不符合物理学原理。”马斯库斯还指出,在大自然里,一切以高速著称的生物都拥有苗条的外形,比如印度豹。超级跑车的设计引入了仿生学的概念。邢晔(新华社供本报特稿) ' a2 P; z' F. p* I+ q % }" S( j: v) W; K; j; m , E9 `* @% u8 c/ i' \/ ^$ t3 S % p0 Y1 a' J u" L9 G 5 V9 h$ t, q0 {! X# L0 V4 c* A9 z) O/ R0 S

"It is a perfect engine, I love it," says Acabion's chief research officer, Peter Maskus. 5 D: P$ O S0 {
When it goes on sale in 2009, the Acabion GTBO 70 will only be capable of 150mph, but its maker claims the 300kg vehicle is the world's most exclusive; production from 2007 to 2011 is limited to 26 examples. 6 s2 v3 J, j0 L; }+ i
"As an engineer I worked for Porsche, Mercedes and BMW," says Maskus. "All those cars are inefficient; they originate from the horse-drawn carriage with their four big wheels and rectangular shape. The Acabion is the new ideal of sporting and responsible mobility." The Acabion resembles another enclosed, tandem seating, feet-forward motorcycle, the Ecomobile, although that was bulkier and powered by a BMW motorcycle engine, with a top speed of 161mph, 0-62mph in 5.7sec and a steady 56mph fuel consumption of 68mpg. , ~7 Y( D3 Y1 {! x9 }; K 4 E9 I& {0 H$ [1 o5 t, W( R# C2 N4 e' `. _; j: M( x2 w, P1 A3 G+ h9 u6 X
