In recent years a couple of amphibian cars were created using modern technology to reach much higher speeds. These include the Aquada from the British company Gibbs Technologies, capable of 160 kilometres per hour (100 mph) on land and 55 kilometres per hour (30 mph) in water. Another high-speed amphibian is the Rinspeed Splash which utilizes hydrofoil technology, allowing the body to be raised out of the water. Using hydrofoils this vehicle can reach 80 kilometres per hour (50 mph) on the water and as a sports car 200 kilometres per hour (125 mph) on the road.
