The new Hov Pod Carbon Fiber Infinity is equipped with a 120 horsepower motor that’s capable of lifting 1,492 lbs when starting on land, or 1,105 lbs on water. Kevlar is used on the underside of the craft, together the rugged and lightweight nature of Carbon Fiber and durability of HDPE, makes Hov Pod Carbon Fiber a tough nut to crack. Furthermore, its 65 section polyurethane-coated anti-rip nylon weave skirt sections consists of four types, namely A, B, C and D, each having a different design to manage the air escape that will prevent ploughing effect, where the vehicle tends to nose dive on water.
