Scarlette Electric Car
The Scarlette built by Tender in France, is an all-electric Jeep lookalike. The car is 4WD with four motors, one for each wheel. Electricity is stored in the floor in 12
lead-acid batteries that provide enough energy to drive the car up to 100 km (60 miles). Lead acid batteries were used because they are reliable, have a decent life span
(claimed to be from 50,000 to 70,000 km) and lower cost of substitution when they do die out.

Gator Water Jeep
WaterCar, Inc. builds high performance amphibious vehicles including the AmphiGator a high speed water Jeep. Not only

The Seep
After having commissioned Willys, Ford and Bantam to build the first 4500 jeeps (1500 each) in March 1941, the US Motor Transport
Board set up a project under the direction of the National Defense Research Committee (NDRC) to be designated ‘QMC-4 1/4 Ton Truck
Light Amphibian’.
The War was on at full tilt, and with bridges over Europe's rivers being taken out one after another, it seemed practical if the
jeep could swim as well as drive.
