Cool.
I wonder how crashworthy it is, though.

The car that gets 235 mpg.
I dont think thats a hybrid.
Its 100 percent a gas car.

I hear some of the cars that say they get 55mpg actually get alot less in realworld. I wonder if it's the same for these little 200mpg gasmizers..
To: Lori675
Volkswagen already sells Europeans a 78-mpg, four-seat nonhybrid subcompact and plans a two-seat city car for 2003 that will get 235 mpgWell, my uncle, Roy Bob, he invented this pill that you put in your fuel tank and it gives you 478 miles per gallon of water. They was s'posed to come out with it in 1978, but the gov'mint knew that would throw the econ'my into a nosedive so they just put the ki-bosh on it....

That car looks so cool. Please note that your wife/date is going to have to sit in the back seat.
This thing is nothing more than a motorcycle encased in a shell.
To: Lori675
Why spend a fortune on this when you can buy a cheap car and spend the rest of the money on gas?

Here's a wider shot to show it's scale:
Sure, you can get more than 200 mpg, but you'll do a lot of peddling.

So true.
But a diesel version that gets 282mph when in actuality gets 250mph it's a marvelous accomplishment.

This little buggie is kinda cute, but I have images in my mind of giant SUV's crashing it to pieces. Americans are addicted to gas guzzling SUV's as symbols of wealth and quiet power. We roar up and back to our daily appointments chatting away on cell phones with our radios blaring. It's too dangerous out there, Lori. Way too risky.
