Dodge’s concept vehicle Tomahawk is the beast of a bike and is no doubt the fastest bike on the planet. This concept vehicle is an actualization of the modern extreme engineering and was first unveiled at the 2003 North American International Auto Show in Powered by 500 hp (373 kW) 8.3 L V10 engine and with 4 wheels (2 front and 2 rear) claims a top speed of 350 mph (560 km/h) but some reports have claimed that it can attain the top speed is 676 km/h (about 420 mph). But, it is quite surprising that when Dodge is famous for its extreme car and truck design then why it came with Tomahawk which is not even street local and is not suited for riding on any road.
"This is a bold faced slap against mediocrity," Trevor Creed, Senior Vice President - Design, Chrysler Group said. "Tomahawk is a scintillating example of what creative minds can do when given the opportunity to run free. It is a pure mechanical sculpture and a joyous celebration of the artistry and emotion of design."
