The Nike ONE is a hypothetical high performance vehicle/concept car that was developed by Nike and Polyphony Digital. This vehicle is featured in the Gran Turismo 4 video game for the Sony PlayStation 2.

This vehicle resembles a moon buggy with a maximum speed of 230 miles per hour (370 km/h) and an eight-gear automatic transmission.[2] However, the top speed of 230 miles per hour can only be achieved by drivers in their physical peak (those who exercise between 60 minutes and 120 minutes per day).[2] The fictional timeline of this vehicle would see its origins in the year 2012 with the invention of the Spark Suit by the Nike Sports Research Lab.[3]


GT5 could've been the first game in history to let you drive the Corn Growers Association Quick-Energy Syrupmobile, the totally in-your-face fictional speedmachine powered by biofuel and government subsidies. But be warned: only drivers who embody all six pillars of the Quick-Energy Corn Syrup lifestyle have what it takes to leverage this extreme cross-promotional opportunity.


Aren't the controls horrible in these games? You have rich, detailed car models and then must control them with a tiny thumbpad on questionable game controllers. Perhaps steering wheels are necessary and expected tp play these video games.
