View Full Version : 141 mpg car.
Kind of fugly, probably not that practical, but it gets over 700 miles on 5 gallons of gas. I'd say it goes in the win catagory.

Someone posted a video of a 3-wheel car that rolled over on its side every time it tried to turn. It was posted about a year ago. Can't remember the name; but it was an all plastic car made in Europe.
No way I would drive that thing 700 miles. :rolleyes:
Yeah that video was hilarious!!

How unstable is that?!!!!!

Can I get a "that's what she said!" ?
My question is, if it's only a three wheel vehicle, why not just make a trike and enjoy the open air instead of hydrogen coming off the batteries.

I wouldn't want to be within a block of that thing when it gets in a wreck. Looks like the driver will be a roasty toasty by the time you get to him.

When he can further his technology to a pavement pounding tire shredding vehicle that looks stealth I'am in. Until the my Marauder is just fine.

Yeah I tend to agree. To me, in its current configuration, it looks like a hardtop golfcart missing a front wheel. But 141 mpg ain't no joke. Good luck to him.

He'll be the next person to "disappear." Remember the guy that made the car that ran on water? He died.
