Aptera – 230 mpg?
The only people crowing about high gas prices are the fellows developing alternative fuel prototypes, like Steve Fambro and his team who have produced the Aptera, a two-seat, three-wheel electric vehicle set to go on sale in November 2008. It has a top speed of 95 miles an hour and comes as both an all electric and a hybrid. The former runs 100 miles on a three to six hour charge, the latter gets about 230 mpg. Expect to drop about $30,000.
