ETV (Extra Terrestrial Vehicle)
Dubbed the ETV by its creator as an acronym for “Extra Terrestrial Vehicle,” this unusual looking car was developed and built in Florida as part of a limited production run.Although it looks like it was created by the props department for a film set in the future, the ETV is 100% road legal, it has remote opening gullwing doors, seating for two, and they say it gets over 40 mpg thanks to its slippery aerodynamics.
The creator of this machine, Mike Vetter, is proud to explain to people that you can build an ETV on a wide variety of platforms, the Chevrolet Aveo and Chevrolet Cobalt SS being the most common, but have been built using other donor cars including the Toyota Echo and a Porsche Boxster.
The body is largely made from fiberglass, it has an unusual windshield that measures in at 4.5 feet wide by 5 feet long – it took Vetter years to find a company who would make it, even settling on a manufacturer in Peru of all places.
Though the ETV looks like it's mid-engined it's most frequently built in a front engined, front wheel drive specification on the Cobalt platform. This means that performance is somewhat limited but mileage is typically quite good, listed as 40+ mpg.
Inside the car you'll find two standard bucket seats up front, and smaller 2+2-style seating in the rear. The rear seats are well-suited for children but the headroom and legroom is too limited to accommodate adults.
Gullwing doors on either side provide plenty of space for getting in and out. There's a hatch in the rear that opens for access to the trunk, and up front there's a small hood that provides limited access to the engine bay.
All four wheels are tucked in behind their own aerodynamic doors that can be opened when you need to change a tire.
Some versions of the ETV came with no windshield wiper and no sider mirrors, instead relying on cameras, however this example has both fitted already.
