Hydraulic drive with a hydraulic motor at each wheel?

I have an ominous feeling that this one may be destined for The Black Hole, so I am moving it on swiftly to the Pros in the hope that you guys will be able to tell me exactly what this is. ???

Wow, I'm impressed.  Very well done Guido 66, you've got it! 

This is indeed the development mule for the electric Imperia GP from Belgium.  Imperia wanted to use a rear-wheel-drive base as its test bed for the GP, so chose to modify this old Ford Escort Mark I.  A very well deserved point is yours.
