Making a car entails making ones own engine.People should stop bringing pieces of metal together and call it building a car.


Patency deals with designs, not engine. You can't copy any Toyota brand and make the exact copy.

You are wrong....no car firm makes it own engine because making an engine entails having a foundry that would make the block


What car firms do is outsource the engine and other parts to various firms according to their own specs

Do you know that rover and Honda uses the same engine
Do you know that some Nissan, Peugeot and Citron uses same engine

Do you also know that some Mazda and Ford uses the same engine


Talk what you know

Biafra lost because nigeria were supported by the britain.

The vehicle looks like a moth.
One of the armoured vehicles IPOB were bragging about I guess.

Nothing captivating about it and nothing worth investing in.


His only hope to prominence has been extinguished.



They might appreciate his craft better in Mali and Somalia.

Even big vehicle manufacturers like Toyota and Mercedes dont make all the components themselves, for instance Hyundai uses Kia engines for their vehicles, while Italian Lamborghini uses engine built by Volkswagen, even Boeing uses GE engines for their aircraft.

If you wont talk, make I talk for you...first of all that car is not made in Nigeria, most of the parts were not locally made, in short more than 90% of its part were imported, thus the car was only assembled in Nigeria but not made.
P.S...am not hating or anything just saying d plain truth

CastedDude:
The engineer, Alex Ephraims from Imo state who became an online sensation after constructing a 'made in Nigeria' combatant vehicle by using locally available materials - was recently spotted with his unique engine in Imo state. A Facebook user shared photos of the man explaining to his admirers the functions of the specially made vehicle as it attracted attention in the area

Ephraim was trained abroad and returned home to use his talents to impact the society positively. His workshop where he designs vehicles and builds them - is one of the few automated and mechanized ones in Owerri.

According to reports, this is Ephraim's third design....
