Smart ForTwo will not be able to take on an adventure in the wild. Especially for the world to follow the legendary rally event, the Dakar Rally. Eits, throw away that thought after the Smart ForTwo looked this one.
Yup, by a team Feber small car that will be driven by Jose Luis Alvarez was overhauled to follow a ferocious rally championship. Barely even longer leaving his cute figure. Jose Luis Alvarez also said that this vehicle is fairly light with a weight of 750 kg.
Seen from the side of the body of the Smart ForTwo is completely redesigned chassis with fiber and reinforced with metal bones that support the stability and safety of the driver. While the other panels, such as pillars and glass overhauled to suit the rough terrain that will be pursued.
And the most notable changes are in the suspension. Where the addition of the legs adds ground clearance of the two-passenger car standard. As a result, overall height ForTwo Dakar reaches 188 cm.
In addition, applications off road rims and Maxxis tires, as well as four-wheel drive system also support the ability to roam wild.
Although not technically modified accompanied to the engine, but the ForTwo version Dakar able lauched to 120 km / h. Pretty good considering the rally scene not put speed alone, but also shrewdness driver in determining the direction and runs over rough terrain.
Unfortunately, Feber team wishes to follow the Dakar Rally 2013, held on January 5 to 20 later to be delayed. The reason is fairly classic, but ironically, the funds are not enough.
