The Quad Urban from Sebastian Salanova
Michael Hines — May 31, 2010 — Autos
The Quad Urban from Sebastian Salanova is a concept ATV for use in crowded city streets. Most ATVs aren't meant to be anywhere near a city, but most ATVs aren't like the Quad Urban.
The Quad Urban might as well be a mini car with its turn signals, stop lights and an on-board GPS. The Quad Urban should appeal to city slickers who want to have their own car, but don't want to shell out big bucks and leave a huge carbon footprint.
