A new Tatra….. from India

T8-2011Sasank Gopinathan, a product design graduate from Cochin, India, decided to revive third oldest car company with new luxury sedan. The super car T8 unveiled by him is worth looking for. Inspiration comes from the Czech automotive brand “TATRA”, which is quiet famous for its unique designs and exclusive technical solutions.

In TatraT8 Project, he incorporated V8 engine in the rear end. This is the most important and one of the unique traits of all the major cars of Tatra since 1940’s. Although mounting of V8 engine at the rear is a real difficult task. But Sasank worked on it and created a vent at the rear end of the car in such a manner that it is not obstructive to the rear passenger’s door.
