SOLVED: WTH # 258 - 3GEN hybrid electric car from Turkey
« on: August 18, 2013, 12:16:55 AM »
For a quick expert point, what car is this?

(Previous WTH258 was a Datsun A680X, which was a repost.)

(Sorry, didn't see replies.)

Not based on a Triumph, and not a Diva.

Is it the Milli Gururumuz 3Gen Hybrid from Turkey or at least and early mock up of it?

LOCKED for geology.

It is the 3Gen from Turkey.  I am not sure that more than the one clay mockup actually exists.  For your point, do you know another name for this car?

After more research and wrestling with translations, it seems the only name actually applied to this car is 3GEN.

Point awarded to Geology.

I have recently come across this car under the name "Sapmaz 3GEN Spor", maybe that was what sixtee5cuda was looking for, or maybe back in 2013 it was only called 3GEN and the rest has been added later.

"Sapmaz 3GEN Spor" is the name on my original file from 2013.  At that time, I believe I only found one source which included the name "Sapmaz", so I left it off of the puzzle.

(Sapmaz means "undeviating" in Turkish)
