It is a hybrid type car. It has a 2.0 litre engine with a turbo charger and has four wheel drive. The car was built in Poland.
“It’s finally here. When Double Trouble becomes a triple threat. Every angle- Same astonishment. Ladies & Gentlemen, let’s welcome “Double Trouble”,” said Rajiv Ruparelia Rally Team.
