Bi-Directional Bual Engine Cars

This would be very impractical and expensive to produce.

Well, now we know where Car 54 went!!

Shoulda had another life with the Dukes of Hazzard or Smokey and the Bandit.

Well there is the Nissan concept car Pivo2.

If a person is that bad at backing up they shouldn't be on the road in the first place.

Yes I agree with you. But sometimes people invent machines/things over crazy ideas/reasons/purposes, some do it for fun.

Of course you realize this is an April fools joke? In the US it's traditional to play jokes on people on April 1st....this is a tall tale told to delight a group of classic car enthusiasts...

Jeeze.... its not that hard to turn the car around to drive the other direction....and save a boatload of money.

It might look like this?

Just watched the clip. Very good intepretation of the subject.

In the '60's a development of the Mini Moke was made to enable driving the vehicle from either end. It was perceived as a fire vehicle to gain access to restricted spaces and to enable the vehicle to be driven out from whence it came.

Didn't someone do that on railroad tracks with a locomotive?

Can't do a simple three point turn with a locomotive. Or a U-Turn.

very interesting, thank you for the link.

There are places where you simply can't make uturns of any type.

Underground works would be a place where this sort of control flexibility would be beneficial.

I tried to find some pictures of mining/tunneling shuttle cars on the internet. It went dumb on me....

Any folk out there ever traveled on or controlled one of these?

Are there any battle tanks that have a cockpit that can slew with (or even independently of) the gun turret? That would work in tight places.

Thank you all for your comments/contributions to the subject. I've learnt some good stuff from the positive comments and the link posted by Wal.

Cheers mate.
