Hurricane represents the continued success of bold concept vehicles for the brands as a means of demonstrating Chrysler Group’s creative and mechanical expertise. For example, powerful powertrain performance is an understatement considering the Hurricane is not just HEMI-equipped, but HEMI squared. There are two 5.7-liter HEMI engines in the vehicle: one in the front and one in the back. Both engines deliver 335 horsepower and 370 lb-ft of torque – a total of 670 hp and 740 lb-ft of torque.
And it can turn in place!!! I want one, it will never be built but maybe the steering and trans system will make it to the sales floor.

so the prop axel is being used as a weak ass torsionbar? i don't think so. jeep needs to go to hummer school on how to do offroad independent suspension.

least thats what i thought of when i first saw it...

"Why Warthog sir?"
"Because M 12 LRV is too long to say in conversation, son."
"I think it looks more like a cat... you know, like a puma."
...
"Now you see those two tow hoooks? They looks like tusks. Now what kind of an animal has tusks?"
"A walrus."
"Didn't I just tell you to stop making up animals?"

Two hemi's..... interesting. Does it have a full carbon body? I remember seeing something like that somewhere, i think it was this car.

I saw something kinda like this at the 2004 Chicago Auto show.

Kind of a bad photo . It's a VW but I forgot what they called it.

thadon

wicked jeep, maybe a reality in another 10 to 15 years

Scorps

Why 2 engines?

Atomic Pinkie

That looks like the racing touraeg. "Racing" = Rally

Might be fun to drive though.

Doesn't the back say 'Integra'? Looks like an old Integra to me.

That's not what I got from this. Have you see more? I see a strut-like component under each fender for suspension.

I believe they're just talking about the effect of a single driving input to a center-diff axle causing a rotational force on the entire axle. Stop both tires, turn the prop shaft, and the axle has to rotate with the propshaft. But if you use a prop shaft for each corner the effect is removed. Not a big deal in practice though engineers would notice the loads.

Anyway, it's a concept car. Dual hemi's would mean terrible compromises for anything but a George Barris one-off.

pinoychink790

have no idea what you guys are talking about, but it looks really cool to me. I'd like to drive on of those

kaiho

Haha, my imageupload was written over.

If it handles like the Warthog in the Halo games, it'd be a blast to drive.
