Akofena is a two-seater car that boasts a front view that takes inspiration from the Lamborghini Urus SUV. It also boasts of two stylish gullwing doors that allows easier entry and exit.

According to reports, the challenge to build Kantanka Akofena came after a young Ghanaian JHS 3 student, who obviously could not afford a sports car, built his own from scrap materials.
A short clip also captured the 18-year-old, named Kelvin Odartei, driving his creation to school to write his final papers.
Even though the build is in skeletal form and not complete yet, it still boasts an eye-catching upward-opening gullwing doors.
Kantanka hasn’t announced whether its latest creation will go into production. But it will be nice if Akofena joins Kantanka’s growing lineups of production vehicles.
