Lacking independent verification, one can't say with certainty that the Namir is the "fastest and most ecological hybrid in the world" as her makers claim.

In the Namir, British steel meets Italian aesthetic: England's historical motor manufacturer Frazer-Nash provided the hybrid systems and Torino's famed Italdesign Giugiaro saw to it that her body was hot.

The Namir has an 814cc endothermic rotary engine, with two electric motors in the front and another two in back, all hidden within a carbon-fiber monocoque chassis and scissor doors… this bitch is ready to burn.

The Frazer-Nash Namir debuted at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show in concept only, and it will likely remain that way.
