may 10, 2018 - 2018 GTH Automotive MegaMower Executiv (2020 Concept)

Description:

In 2018, at the annual Autoshow in Budapest, Hungary, GTH brought to the show two 2020 concepts. The Ignite Hyper Hatch Concept, and this, the absurd MegaMower Executive 2020 Concept.

In an interview with Car Magazine, Lárus, acting CEO of GTH Automotive, admitted that this idea is something that started off as a joke at a office party, but eventually was built in a fully functional state.

So this is a "Premium" lawnmower, with a small inline 3 engine a tiny turbo, making around 60 horsepower and capable of reaching over 100kmh speed. The blades in the actual lawnmowing mechanism were titanium, ultra sharp and durable. Tires were rough pattern, similar to quad-bike's tires, and was supposed to be able to "play around" offroad by removing the lawnmowing mechanism.

This monstrosity was never meant to hit production in any way, shape or form, and GTH actually got a fine and a slap on the wrist for bringing the MegaMower to the Autoshow, as they admitted there was never any plans for production of it, or any modified versions of it.

The built model is now owned, and actually used, by Lárus, GTH's CEO. He claims it does the job pretty well, but then again, a lawnmower costing around $20.000 makes no sense from a business standpoint.

Cost of the MegaMower Concept in 2018:
$21.800
