Using its patented steering system, which steers with a steering wheel as easily as a car or truck, its rubber tracks, and light foot print, Torvec’s FTV can virtually glide over rough terrain, mud, or snow at high speeds. Thus, the inefficient four-wheel drive becomes virtually obsolete.

Torvec has incorporated steel-reinforced rubber tracks, an advanced suspension, and other innovations into a vehicle described as follows:

  • Designed for highway speeds
  • 17" wide rubber tracks won’t leave ruts
  • Size and weight of a full-size pick-up
  • Ability to carry a 3,000-pound load
  • Transports up to 11 people
  • Capable of a true pivot - can turn on its center
  • True all-terrain vehicle: sand, mud, snow, rocks
  • Capable of traversing a 60% slope
  • Torvec has over 130 patents covering: truck components, automotive transmissions, truck vehicle steer drives, traction differentials, hydraulic pumps and motors, gearing, and fuel injectors.

    Location & Directions: Event will be held at Joseph Neri Chevrolet. 3740 Route 104, Williamson, NY. Take route 104 to Ontario. Go past Tops, then the Spencer Speedway. Continue past Salmon Creek Road where in less than a mile, Neri's is on the right.
