A handful of engineers who earn their living just by designing weird cars for Peugeot, have earned some more euros by creating this wild looking car.
They have come to a weird idea to dump some weight from a car to increase its speed; they have removed one of the rear wheels of this car and its accompanying components like suspension, brakes and the body around it. They have named it, 20Cup.
The 20Cup is a 1,279lbs three-wheeled racing car that has only 20% of its weight at the rear.
This idea gives the car some more friction around corners than any other production vehicle. The car will not reach the showroom but can surely inspire other car manufacturers to create such cars.
20Cup has better power-to-weight ratio than the conventional car and it can storm from zero to 62 mph in just 5.2 seconds.
Though, the car has a good pickup but having a single rear tire makes unusual driving experience.
