From evo Magazine comes the story of the Scamander, a vehicle that can hit a top speed of 120 mph on dry land. On the water it can go 6 knots. I really hope they have an extra layer of undercoating.
About the Amphibious Scamander:
Despite its off-road credentials, the Scamander is rear-wheel drive, its back axle powered by a 3-litre Ford Duratec V6 engine via a four-speed automatic gearbox. It’s enough to hustle the 1.6-ton behemoth to 60mph in around 8 seconds, and onto an estimated 120mph top speed – or 6 knots on water.
