INTERVIEW

"I want 400 mph speed for everybody"

Extract from an Interview for the European Futurist Conference in Lucerne, given in November 2007

Dreams, cars and bionics – Dr.-Ing. Peter Maskus is the driving force behind one of the most revolutionary concepts regarding the automotive future, the Acabion GTBO. A speed-freaks dream come true.

The Acabion GTBO is quite something. How did you come up with this revolutionary concept?

The "mental preparation" took me 26 years of being a 100% automotive enthusiast. And the "breakthrough" came, when I had tested each end every Porsche Turbo after 4 years of being a Porsche engineer myself in Stuttgart Zuffenhausen. I asked myself: "And what now? Will this be it for the next 120 years?" And I literally "saw" that the answer is "definitely not": I want our grandchildren to go much faster, much more secure and above all much more efficient. I want 400 mph speed for everybody, and not 200 mph for a little, exclusive circle, and I want to have it solar powered.

BIOGRAPHY

Peter Maskus was born on April 25th, 1960. Since early childhood, he was fascinated by nature and technology. In 1972 he met Dr. Prinz (later CEO of Mercedes-Benz) and Prof. Fiala (C.Res.O. of Volkswagen) privately and got his first direct impressions about car industry management and technology for several years and in a quite intense and unique way, especially taking his age into account.
