Mitsubishi has entered this in the LA Show Design Challenge. It’s called an MMR 25. It’s sporting a 8x4 wheel-drive system. each “wheel” rotates and has smaller individual “wheels” that rotate ovia electric motors on the “wheel”.

Not exactly “tearing up some trails”, the car uses the same Omni-Directional wheel design seen in this video.
