An extremely lowered yellow Honda Civic, nicknamed “banana peel,” has been attracting attention at car shows in Taiwan and causing a stir on social media.

The car, which seems to glide just above the ground like an optical illusion, barely reveals its tires and was created by the Taiwanese group SGT (Stance Garage Taiwan), known for radical modifications. Although displayed publicly, details about its operation remain shrouded in mystery.

Images circulating on Instagram and Reddit reveal that the driver needs to lie down in a reclined seat to drive the vehicle for a few meters. There is speculation that the tires are hidden behind dark windows, while the location of the engine and other components remains unknown. The invention is not made for street use and appears to operate only in controlled environments.

First presented in 2024, the prototype was inspired by video game “glitches,” graphical errors that distort the scenery. The current model is driven with the help of the team during its short journey and, besides drawing attention for its unusual appearance, aims to rival an Italian group that presented an equally lowered Fiat Panda in 2023.
