Italia strano

The Italia Strano is a Rally Car in MotorStorm: Pacific Rift. Oddly, it has an escape hatch mounted on the roof, along with a somewhat nautical feel to it.

Resemblance[]

The Strano resembles generic modern amphibious vehicles due to the very high ground clearance and rounded front "hull." Although the Strano would have problems with going though water, due to being an open-wheel vehicle, a characteristic not found in modern amphibious vehicles. It also (although very vaguely) has some resemblance to the Datsun 240Z. Overall, it resembles a heavily modified Pininfarina Ferrari 330 GTC Speciale.

Trivia[]

  • The Strano also appears in MotorStorm RC, but its vehicle class has been changed from Rally Car to SuperMini.
  • The Strano's interior is a veritable mash-up of themes, as one will see a sonar screen, a feature only seen on nautical vessels. Also, some of the vehicle's dials read "Air Speed", which would usually be seen on aircraft.
  • "Strano" means "strange" in Italian.
  • The green "Sonix" livery has Ferrari F40-style wheels.
  • The Strano has a DLC livery in the Adrenaline Expansion Pack.
  • One livery has the word NAUTILUS spelled across the side, along with the words Capt. Nemo. This may be a reference to the Jules Verne novel 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea.
  • The Strano is unique is the sense that each livery has a different set of wheels only seen on that livery.
  • It is one of the default Rally Cars in Pacific Rift, alongside the Patriot Blackfoot.
  • Kid Million (cream "Nautilus" livery), Liz Bates (green/red livery) and Mira Hawk (green "Sonix" livery) are the AI Characters seen driving this vehicle.
