A school? Like Luigi Ferrari's?
I found this car on the website of a Hungarian school. But the name of this car is not Hungarian and I don't think it was built in Hungary either
Bontino?
Not Bontino
Let me give you a few clues, so you can solve this:
- after all I think the car was indeed designed in Hungary, but it was an international effort, involving an Italian architect, a group of modellers in China and a university in Hungary.
- The name refers to the size and function of this vehicle
- This was a one-off

The University of Óbuda is in Budapest :) So no.

Yes, we are talking about the Széchenyi István University. Let me give 24 hours to find this project. Locked
Was it developed by the JKK (Jarmuipari Kutatokozpont) ?
I don't know. I am not even sure it was done at the University. But the only place on the web, where this project is being mentioned is at the website of the University.
