BPG Werks unveils Shredder will beat up your Segway - SlashGear
A company called BPG Werks has unveiled a cool new treaded vehicle that is a cross between a tank and a skateboard aimed at getting soldiers around quickly on just about any terrain. The vehicle is called the Shredder and it looks like the macho version of a Segway.
The thing is powered by a Honda 4-stroke 200cc engine with 15hp. The vehicle weighs 125 pounds and has a suspension with 3-inches of travel. The torque produced by the little 200cc motor is 16ft/lb. The shredder can carry 1200 pounds of payload when unmanned and 700 pounds when manned. The top speed for the Shredder is over 30 mph.
