2. Rinspeed X-Trem
via automobilesreview.com
Rinspeed has always been innovative in their concept car creation. Most recently, they crafted a concept car based on a BMW i3 that could switch steering wheels from one side of the car to the other; they’ve built a Lotus that drove in the water like a submarine, and the Splash, which had fins to help it rise above water.
But in 1999 the Swiss company built the bizarre X-Trem Concept. Basically, they attached a hovercraft to an already strangely-designed car, as well as a functional crane for loading/unloading the craft. The X-Trem is built on a Mercedes G-wagen chassis, has room for two people despite having no doors, and is equipped with a 5.5-liter V8 engine. Needless to say, the car is very strange to look at.
