Prototype for a city car, La Quasar, designed by Quasar Kahn. The car allows easy access from all four sides and can reach speeds of 95kph. The Quasar Unipower City Car was designed by French-Vietnamese engineer and designer Quasar Khanh. 4-cylinder 1100 cc engine with automatic transmission and suspension was borrowed from the Mini. The British company Universal Power Drives Ltd, which built sports cars on Austin Mini units, made a limited number of these cars between 1967 and 1968. The main highlight was a cubic five-seater body with sliding glass walls-doors. The motorhome is not precisely a cube; its uniqueness, as a car, is that it is more comprehensive than long.
