The Covini C6W is a new car that will be produced and sold starting the end of 2009 to a limited number of people. The uniqueness of this car is that it has 6 wheels!  Yup, that’s right, I said 6 wheels!  I think it looks a little strange. This is the first car to be built with 6 wheels. 

The Covini C6W has two smaller tires in the front with the intention to “increase air penetration and have a smaller frontal area effectively reducing drag” according to www.jalopnik.com.  According to www.jalopnik.com, here are the reasons for the 6 wheels: less risk of front tires deflating, less risk of aquaplaning, better braking, better grip, better comfort, and better absorption of frontal impact.  The Covini C6W has a 4.2-liter engine with 433 horsepower and top speed of 185 mph.  There is not price available for the 6 wheeled beast, but I’m sure it won’t be cheap.  More information as it becomes available.
