SEAT IBIZA BIMOTOR – Theoretical Group S Prototype

INTRODUCTION

In the mid-1980’s, Spanish car maker SEAT, which was freshly out of the Fiat group, wanted an opportunity to have a strong presence in the rallying craze fuelled by the lax Group B regulations and boost its sales marketing.

Two Spanish brothers, the Serviàs, privately came up with a cheaper solution to giving SEAT’s rally car four-wheel drive: use two engines!
