Everyone knows that the most efficient vehicle gasoline (petrol) apalagu if not a motor but what about when the rain can drench, not to mention the confusion to store your luggage so much.

Jakarta “Various ways people, especially the retainer of technology, looking for a way out to overcome road congestion. In addition to cars that can fly, has also created a car that can dive in the ocean floor.

This amphibious automobile automotive besutan a Swiss company, Squba Concept. Swiss automotive company’s Chief Executive, Frank Rinderknecht, detailing the creation of such a car cost U.S. $ 1.5 million or approximately USD 13 billion. Action film British espionage agent besutan author Ian Fleming, James Bond, is an inspiration to the future of this vehicle.

If the new MIT graduate student has an idea to create limited to a flying car, it would menggeber Rinderknecht findings in the Geneva Auto Show that was held March 2008. Rinderknecht claimed invention as the first car that can dive in the water.

Unlike the amphibious vehicles commonly used slow-moving military in the water, this car sure can fly stable at a depth of 10 meters in the water. Together with a team of experts in mechanical engineering company, Rinderknecht have modified internal combustion engine of a sports sedan with an electric motor to drive a propeller.

“I spent three decades in order to realize a car can drive in water. Now the dream has come true, “said the enthusiast’s action agent 007.

Two propellers mounted on the rear of the vehicle as a driver of the car when diving. Meanwhile, when on land, energy gained from the electric motor which then flowed to the rear wheels.

“We wanted to create cars that have not been created by anyone before. Accordingly, we wanted to create a car that can dive,” said Rinderknecht, chairman of the company which has launched several revolutionary vehicle models such as the Rinspeed Senso, Rinspeed Splash, and Rinspeed Advantige Rone.

From outward appearances, Squba Concept looks ordinary. The style is like a Lotus Elise sports car or sport utility vehicle Coupe electric Tesla. The difference is, on the front with an extra wing and the side mounted shark fin-shaped incision.

Technological sophistication of this car lies in the material body is using carbon nano tube material. This material is very lightweight, but strong withstand high pressure, such as water pressure in the sea. Passenger and driver seated in a comfortable cabin and adequate relief.

To breathe while diving, a sophisticated air supply system fitted which can automatically control how much it needs oxygen in the cabin. Although the submarine was believed to be safe cars, safety equipment is calculated in an emergency. Squba therefore made with an open cabin so that motorists can easily exit in an emergency.

“With the enclosed cabin, opening the car door (in water) is not possible,” said Rinderknecht. He admits it is very difficult to make cars that dive. Therefore, the car must be completely waterproof and can handle the pressure of water which makes the car difficult to move freely.

“The real challenge is how to make cars under the water can be agile writhed like a fish,” he said.

Rinderknecht hope, Squba can be mass produced in the near future. Now, his party was discussing Squba mass production with several commercial automotive companies.
