@TheRancidwookiee - How many Euros is the original Dutch model? I HATE the US styling, but I'll just have some panels custom built to change it up. I NEED this thing.
@RobertMoua - I remember an interview with Leno a while back before the US show. He said that he wouldn't want to do it, because he thought the show wouldn't work as well in the states, because advertizing manufacturers would frown upon unfavorable reviews too much.
What the fuck are they talking about the carver being a prototibe and made in US crap? It was in pruduction in 2003 in the Netherlands... wen was this taped?
It's a Dutch car and the design you see was the final design. Prototype my ass. This car was in production but the company went under. If the new ones are indeed built in America its American built, but it's stupid that they didn't mention they bought the rights...
ps. Props to VanDenBrink for designing it, and putting years of engineering and developing work into it to realize a dream of many that put smiles on faces!! How un-Dutch of you! 'Grin'
Conceived, engineered and produced in the Netherlands. "this is the prototype".. what BS. It's the production type they are 'planning' to pimp with a new exterior. And the look they are aiming for well whats to say about taste. But the Japanese beat them to it and designed a sleeker front end for the Carver which pulled the whole design together. Lets hope the Americans can put it into production for a better price than the Dutch could produce it for.Look for Jensen Buttons drive in it on u-tube
@doep007 If it weren't for the American company that bought the designs the carver would have limited numbers instead of having a potential of becoming the greatest car to exist.
It's made in socialist, pot smoking, affordable healthcare, liberal, green-crazed Netherlands. Not in right wing, paranoid, anti-intellectual, militarized, gas guzling, religious America. Suck on it.
Leno you're lame, how on earth can you review a car without even mentioning the original manufacturer's name (Van Den Brink). And not even discussing it's made in The Netherlands, the americans just bought the patents. So yes the new ones are from the US. But SHAME ON YOU LENO!!! Only talking about the efficiency, jeez there are so many aspects you skipped. Treehugger!
@yimig actually tanner knows his cars. He is a disciple of Ryhs Millen which is Rod Millen's son. And Millens is known for breaking rally records. Tanner can stay. the other 2 ist a must go.
@RobertMoua Tanner may know how to drive but that's why they have the Stig, tanner dosn't belong in front of the camera. just look at his old show Super Cars Exposed and you will see him plagiarising British top gear all the time word for word and it comes out like shit!
@RobertMoua You said it! The American version of TG sucks! Not only are those two guys idiots but the producers don't understand their audience. The show misses the mark by a mile; it's disappointing and an embarrassment. Leno would be great on that show (imagine if Steve McQueen were alive - there's a thought!).
@megabowzer100 They are _constructed_ in america. the easy bit. huge difference. also, huge ego filled? what part of that has anything to do with ego? i'm not a patriot at all, if you meant that. just wanted to point it out. i happen to know it was developed in "my" home country because... well... how can you not. the netherlands is tiny. i hope you're not a dick in real life.
Now go ahead and invent a flying car, like the Back to the Future Delorean. :) It's nearly 2012, shouldn't we be in flying cars like The Jetsons by now?!? LOL
@platypusone The prototype is actually production model, a vandenbrink Carver one, the vandenbrink company in the Netherlands, unfortunatly the company went bankrupt a couple of years ago.
@VDZRIDER cvt transmissions are boring, altho they would be good for people who don't know how to change gears or simply doesnt like manual transmissions.
I think most of the info given in this clip is nothing but a sack of horse $h!T..... Those damn Americans claim to invent everything (EVEN WATER) ..right !!!
but anyways one day they will wake up and realized that they were nothing but wet dreams..
@afadallas Everyone knows that the Dutch company Carver invented this technology. This American company simply licensed it and continued making an updated version of the Carver because Carvers are no longer produced. If you watch the video, you will see them talk about Carver
hey Honda, Kaw, BRI, BMW...someone build this thing....these guys have had this three or four years now and it still hasn't come out........ oh and stick with the Dutch design. Yah the one you designed is nicer looking but it appears that your sight lines will be compromised.
The Dutch did the original design, but they could not monetize it as a "sports car/bike" so they stopped production and license the design to Americans. The car will be build (or assembled, I doubt the parts will be all-American) in America. All the legalities have been worked out. I know because I have about three years of following this car company's progress.
So, to be accurate: designed by Dutch as a sports car, re-ingeneered by Americans as a eco-car and a car for the masses.
The Carver One was actually be attempted to be a electric car, but the company wanted to sell a ton of these just like a smart car before any further development on the brand..
Now that Americans has the licence to create this, now they claim that they Created the Carver Car, Not because its electric NO!, because its the new expirience of driving They claim to make.
And once this American vehicle comes out, The people dont give a shit if the Dutch invented it First.
