This morning, a weblog post indicated Chrysler had approved production of the Dodge Tomahawk motorcycle — a concept vehicle that was previewed almost two years ago as a design study at the Detroit auto show. While many enthusiasts would surely love to see the Viper-powered bike produced, it’s unlikely the Tomahawk will ever be anything more than a concept. “There has been no decision to produce the Dodge Tomahawk,” Chrysler design spokesman Sam Locricchio told Leftlane. “The vehicle remains a design exercise to underscore — in an extreme fashion — the performance elements that make up the Dodge brand,” Mr. Locricchio said. “[The Tomahawk is] purely a concept to date.” Upon further research, it seems the weblog that started the Tomahawk rumor was citing outdated information from shortly after the concept’s debut.
