I'm not so sure that the original concept was engine-less. The early tests on it in 93 included driving and handling, so I'm sure that at leat at some point it had a motor. The test bed was supposed to have a Direct-injected supercharged 1.6 liter engine (close relative of the Lotus Elan) said to produce the power of a 2.2 liter motor. I believe they actually mounted something different in the concept to run, as the 1.6 wasn't ready to fit.

I've got a real early auto magazine around here that shows it being driven, with impressions and such. I'll try to find it (don't think there's an engine shot in there though).
