Italdesign Giugiaro’s Quaranta concet is powered by a mid-mounted hybrid powerplant (3.3L V6 + Toyota Hybrid Synergy Drive) that generates 268hp and 212 ft-lb of torque, boosting it from 0-60mph in just 4.05-seconds. Plus, its roof is comprised of solar panels, which power the interior electronics and charge the batteries. Click here for first picture in gallery.
At the same time, its pair of fuel tanks integrated into the frame can hold nearly 16 gallons of fuel, good for a 621-mile range. The concept can employ two- or all-wheel-drive depending on the conditions, and can also raise its ride height up to a maximum of 9.17 inches
