This car reminds me of the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile.
There’s Everything in This Car—Even the Kitchen Sink
Everything is built into a car designed by a Swedish engineer — everything including the kitchen sink! The car is equipped with two beds and a kitchen. With the beds folded out of the way, it will seat seven passengers without crowding. Wheelbase is 240 inches, about six feet longer than the longest American car. Top speed is 125 miles per hour.
Seems like we’ve seen this before:

It looks like a copy of R. Buckminster “Bucky” Fuller’s Dymaxion Car.

Right down to the inch and top speed, too, except 20 years earlier.
