Akare Skykord

The Akare Skykord was Akare's first production vehicle and flagship luxury sedan. The first generation was produced in 1966, but was short lived in its first generation until it was revisited in 2011 for the second generation, of which it is still in development as a prototype.

First Generation

The first generation Skykord was put into production in 1966 (2007) as a large, luxury sedan. It was a massive car and exceptionally advanced for its time, utilizing early Wiremod's logic gates for a "geared" thruster transmission to provide a realistic acceleration and top speed (for the time). The car was set up to simulate the performance of a 3 liter inline six providing around 200 bhp. The car could reach 70 mph, a high speed for this era. The Skykord was comprised of all-physical vanilla props with a weld-based solid axle suspension. Steering was performed by thrusters, the front wheels did not actually steer.
