BRITISH CAR GETS BETTER THAN 12,000 MILES PER GALLON
Colour me sceptical:
Update: There's a catch, the car's size limits its carrying capacity.
A car that can travel on less electricity than it takes to power a lightbulb was unveiled by its British creators today.By my reckoning, 25W is equal to.o335 horsepower. Acceleration must be fantastic.
The gas company BOC said the hydrogen-powered Ech2o car needed the input of 25W for a 25,000-mile global trip. This is the energy equivalent of less than two gallons of petrol. Emissions would consist of water. But with a top speed of 30mph, the journey would take more than a month, even if the car was driven flat out.

This is a prototype vehicle! Made out of carbon fibers and aluminum? Pretty spendy!
Still, it's a geniune R&D project, hoping to improve hydrogen fuel cell applications....but I don't plan on buying stocks any time soon.
