This is obviously a computer-generated image.  Did the car ever exist in the metal/ fibreglass?

It is of course just a rendering, but I have no idea what the base of the car should be; I suspect not a 240Z.
Don't go looking for the base as there's no mention of it on the "maker"'s website; just what the proposal is and who is 'going to build it'!

This project was realised by one of many unknown young designers (student of Institute of design)?

I don't know who actually designed it, just what it is and whose project it is.

It was realised by unknown company (for us  ;D), isn't it?
Maybe, this is a first project for them..

I'm afraid I don't know anything about the power source; it isn't mentioned..

Aha - you found it!
Attached is the picture from the 'Net but trying to find details of exactly what it might be based on, what powers it and how they are going to go about building it produces zilch.

A bit of optimism in this one I fear...!
