235MPG Volkswagon!

282MPG Volkswagon!

If the tour of VW Factory impressed you, I am sure you will enjoy their new 2-seater 235MPG car too.

Volkswagen’s had its super-thrifty One-Liter Car concept vehicle — so named because that’s how much fuel it needs to go 100 kilometers — stashed away for six years. The body’s made of carbon fiber to minimize weight (the entire car weighs just 660 pounds) and company execs didn’t expect the material to become cheap enough to produce the car until 2012.
