It's more a "concept study". It's only produced in a small series of 50 cars, which are given to selected buyers. A few years ago, VW produced the "3 liter Lupo", which was a flop, due to the comaratively high price. But we can assume that we'll not be driving through the city centre with Hummers and Porsches in a few years, so this is probably the way to go.
Ha ha nice one.....That's why I love the new Falcon EcoLPi LPG car so much..... Cheap as chips to run, and can tow all sorts of stuff without fuss. Also I wonder how much this thing will cost compared to just paying for a normally powered small car like the Ford Fiesta.
The weight is a huge factor in fuel efficiency ,but at 795 Kg ,at highway speeds, with wind in the wrong quarter ,it could become the worlds most fuel efficient aeroplane
Not a fan of the back wheel covered...but like the idea behing the fuel efficiency. Would love to see a hybrid 4x4 sorta like a jeep wangler in size
It's called a Lexus Hybrid All hybrid/electric cars SUCK Just in the battery technology The rare earth's are mined in South Africa Processed in China (because nobody else is willing to ) Shipped to Japan to be turned into " batteries " Than finally land here
Went for a ride as a passenger in the 'dickie seat' on one a few years back. Accelerated like crazy, cornered on rails & ride as smooth as a modern car. Made hardly any sound and stopped like a new car. No aircon, airbags, abs, crumple zones or cigarette lighters weighing it down, but still better than a scooter.
Even faster if you chopped & channeled it with dropped axles & inserted a 350 chev toploader & 9 inch :lol:
In the late 90's FORD Did an endurance trial of an old original XY And a "new at the time " Foulcan The XY was more fuel efficient & and had as good as the "NEW" Foulcan on emissions NOW be a good consumer & buy a new FOULCAN Ford needs the sales figures :lol:
