The Viper-powered Dodge Tomahawk concept vehicle shatters all
the barriers of conventional thinking about personal transportation. This
four-wheel, single-passenger vehicle is a sleek, rolling sculpture that
combines art-deco styling with extreme engineering.
The 500-horsepower
Viper V-10 engine powering the dual rear wheels gives this radical vehicle a
potential top speed of nearly 400 miles per hour - for anyone who wants to
test it. The Tomahawk roared into public view at the North American
International Auto Show.
Initial reaction to the concept vehicle typically comes in two words:
'Wow' and 'why.' If you want to see 'why' and feel the 'wow' check out the
Tomahawk site and get ready to experience the extreme.
One look at Tomahawk and it's obvious that Dodge continues to drive its
foot to the floor - most recently with the all-new 2003 Viper, Heavy Duty
and Light Duty Rams and an SRT lineup dedicated to engineering the most
powerful production vehicles in their segments.
That extreme thinking produced a machine in the true tradition of
power-junkie passion, powered by a 505 cu. in., 8300 cc aluminum Viper V-10
engine.
The Dodge Tomahawk is a Chrysler Group design concept
that is as much a Viper-powered work of art as it is a whole new type of
vehicle invention. It is both a sculpture that can be ridden, as well as a
bold statement about the Chrysler Group's enthusiast culture and passion for
design.
