The sQuba, created by Swiss organization Rinspeed, is the world's first auto that can be driven both land and water. The first thought by Rinspeed organizer and CEO Frank M. Rinderknecht was propelled by the 1977 James Bond film The Spy Who Loves Me. The skeleton from the Lotus Elise is utilized as the base for this vehicle.
The sQuba is a zero-outflow, all electric vehicle which utilizes three electric engines, one for arrive travel, two for water. It drives ashore fueled by its electric back wheel drive powertrain, utilizing rechargeable lithium-particle batteries. After entering water, it drifts at first glance until the operator floods the interior to submerge it. It can be submerged to a profundity of 10 meters (33 ft), fueled by twin electric-controlled propellers supplemented by two Seabob water planes. It "flies" when submerged, similar to a submarine, as it isn't intended to drive along the surface at the base of the water. The auto's best land speed is 120 km/h (75 mph). On the surface of water, the best speed is 6 km/h (3.2 kn; 3.7 mph) and submerged it is 3 km/h (1.6 kn; 1.9 mph). 

The vehicle can transport a driver and traveler in its open cockpit. The open cockpit configuration is planned to enable the inhabitants to escape effortlessly if there should arise an occurrence of crisis. Whenever submerged, the inhabitants inhale air helped in the vehicle through scuba-style jumping controllers. Without occupants, the sQuba will surface naturally. The twin water planes mounted on turning louvers at the front of the vehicle give guiding and lift while it is submerged and the propellers at the back give forward development. 


The vehicle's inside is water and salt safe with the goal that it can be driven in the sea. 

The sQuba additionally comes furnished with a laser sensor framework made via self-governing voyage control framework maker Ibeo to permit self-sufficient activity.
