# It Looks Like a Truck on Land, But Drive the Gibbs Humdinga Into Water? The Amphibious Vehicle Becomes a Speedboat

You may connect Gibbs’ name mostly with the Quadski. Their new amphibious Humdinga, however, will impress you just as much.

 
Humdinga features a 21.5-feet long turbodiesel engine, an all-wheel drive system, and also disc brakes for highway speeds on land. When in water, the wheels retract into its body / hull, and a jet propulsion system is activated, enabling the vehicle to operate in shallow waters.
One of the best features of Humdinga is doubtlesly its capacity. The vehicle can safely carry 7 people and up to 1,653 pounds of payload.
