235 mpg VW 2-seater

VW is planning to build a 235 mpg 2-seat car in 2010. It features lots of carbon fiber, magnesium, titanium and aluminum for low weight and an aerodynamic shape.

The production vehicle is likely to feature a 2-cylinder turbo diesel. The engine automatically turns off when you stop and restarts when you press the accelerator.
