World's first wooden car can outrun Porsche and Lamborghini
The Splinter
The world’s first wooden supercar has been unveiled and its creators claim it can outrun a Porsche or Lamborghini.
The Splinter’s top speed of 240mph is partly due to its amazingly light body – a mere 1,134kg, about 240kg less than the super lightweight Porsche.
Despite its power, the Splinter is relatively eco-friendly, doing up to 20mpg.
