Inhabitat » 275 MPG eVARO Electric Vehicle Goes From 0 to 60 in 5 Seconds

One of Inhabitat’s favorite high-mileage vehicle is mine too.   They sure know how to find them, don’t they?  This is the Aptera’s competition.  Two different vehicles competing philosophies.  Which one would you prefer?

I’ve been telling everyone about this vehicle.  Seats two and it’s suppose to get 200 mpg and another 100 via plug-in and solar.   I usually just give them the link to Aptera.com.  Today I found that engadet has an “everything Aptera via engadget”.  Still, It’s interesting to go to Aptera. com to learn more about the car.  Crazy, cool car!

smartCars are a fascination for me.  I’ve always had a high-mileage, low cost per mile car to drive around.  The smallest one was the MGB circa 1969 that I had when I was young.

These cars are even smaller but I still own a small car.  I always will.  My current one is a Chevy Aveo bought before these puppies were available here in the United States.

Even though one would think that these smartCars are smaller they still are as more comfortable to drive and even safer.

Check this new model offered.

Inhabitat » SAHİMO Hydrogen Vehicle Travels 568 Kilometers on 1 Liter of Fuel

Check this out.  I don’t know where Inhabitat gets their information but here we are struggling to get 100m/160k per gallon of gas, being told that the public would never buy it, yaddi,yaddi, yadda…  Double the size.  Halve the MPG and still it would sell. I think it would make a nice city car.  What do you think?
