Looks like set dressing from Total Recall!
Love the Rebel Alliance colors. ๐Ÿ˜

Edit:
Okay, so it looks a bit sleeker than the cars in Total Recall.

That car is uglier than a monkey's armpit, but I guess they put a frame on top of an actual car and that's the best they could do.

If you hadn't told me, I would have put my money on that being a Lamborghini.

The space between the frame and the tires is more pronounced than what it seems in this image. You can see it here in maintenance so it make more sense: https://youtu.be/m5Gwttn2D7w

In all honesty, I love how retro-futurist looks in images. But on video, it looks like something Sir Clive Sinclair would have designed (given enough budget).

If that bad boy runs you over, it'll slice your legs clean off and save you money on a casket.
