Rinspeed will present its new sQuba, the worlds first diving car, at the Geneva Motor Show (March 6-16). The car is not only able to drive on roads autonomously with a push of a button (thus without a driver, passenger or further assistance), but can also transform into an amphibious vehicle which can be submerged in water up to 10 meters (33 feet). An electric motor with powerful torque drives the rear wheels, while the propulsion on the water is ensured by two propellers in the stern and two powerful jet drives in the bow propelling the vehicle under water while diving. When underwater, the driver and passenger are enclosed in the vehicle thanks to light weight body components made of futuristic Carbon Nano Tubes and are supplied with fresh breathing air by the self-contained on-board system.

Don't be too sure. I've seen plenty of stupid people with money on the news.

so that people can get out in emergency, so that its not impossible to open doors under water & to make it more balanced

two simple answers:1)electric motors which would be airtight sealed2)stupid people wouldnt be able to afford this car so you wouldn have to worry bout it

Two Questions:How does the car not flood out with water, you know how the 4x4 utes have the scuba snorkel...?Also, How many people have drowned already due to stupidity?

No top lets the car stay lightweight since it wouldn't need an extra ~2 tons to weigh down the air that a roof would trap.It also is a safety concern because the water pressure is higher than the air pressure inside a car, which could make the doors very very hard to open in an emergency situation.

i never took physics at all. that too.. is really stupid
For those considering buying a new vehicle, don't forget to check out the new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser. Great for adventures off road, just for cruising around town, or running to the store.

The new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser seats five and comes in two-tone with a Voodoo Blue, Titanium Metallic, Black Diamond, Sun Fusion, Sandstorm or Brick body color and White top. The interior fabric color is Dark Charcoal, while the dash, center instrument panel trim and the door inserts match the body.
