World Water Day: Cars that drive on water
Sea Lion
February 23, 2016, 05:39 ISTThe Sea Lion prototype is the world’s fastest amphibious “land speed” vehicle. Mark Witt, the designer of car, calls it an Amphibious World Speed Record Competition Vehicle. It was designed to set world records on land and on water.
On the road, the Sea Lion clocks in at 125 mph (201 km/h). In the water, meanwhile, it can reach respectable speeds of as much as 60 mph (96 km/h).
The body of the Sea Lion was made by using TIG-welded 5052 aluminum and CNC-milled. It took six years for Witt to develop the car. It has been priced at $2,59,500 (around Rs 1.7 crore).
