I'm a reservoir engineer in the oil industry. It'd be nice to see some of these XL1s (and other cars getting similar mileage), but just not *too* many of them.
Description: Built for mileage, not performance, the aerodynamically-optimized XL1 has a top speed limited to 99 mph, a 0-62 mph time of 11.9 seconds and can travel up to 24 miles in all-electric mode.

@Zach I was referring to the 24 mile range in all-electric mode. anyways, screw this car, I'd never drive it haha. to each his own
its got 80 hp and I'm sure it will be able to do any speed limit so it wouldn't be that bad
now that's great and all, but can you imagine traveling 24 miles with 30 horsepower?? I'd probably die of old age by the time I ran out of juice (if boredom didn't get me first), and I'm 19 -__-
This car is amazing, they're putting the budget, resources, and materials used to make an exotic hypercar into making something fuel efficient. Ladies and gentleman, you're looking at the Bugatti veyron of efficiency.
It's looking like this is just an experiment/record attempt to make the most fuel efficient car they could
Sorry to burst your bubble zach but I believe that if you have a hybrid the range on the batteries somehow boosts up the mpg, so they say it does around 80 mpg but probably does around 30 mpg.
wow do the math if u drive 20 thousand miles in a year u would go threw 85 gallons of diesel and if its fuel tank is 15 gallons then u only have to fill up (drumroll) 6 times a year!
I'd rather stick with a measly 89 mpg in the Trident Iceni and get a few more horses. But I guess there is the cost difference.
Those are small clips around the rear wheel well... So it's going to have the covers on it. Which will help with the sunken wheel look.
Ya but the prius and leaf has 4 doors and a usable trunk.. I dk about this one yet.. Plus the rear wheels will be covered and i dk how those will look..
I wouldn't buy it but its a MUCH better alternate to the Prius if you want a hyper-mile car.
I hate comparing new cars looks to other cars... but this looks like they hooked an r8 front to one of those old jaguar rears, I forgot what the name of the jag was....... but it was a fast one lol
Looks alot like a car that people think of when they hear the word "future"....
They had to make it aerodynamic. And besides the rear wheels I also think this is one of the better looking high mpg cars out there. Dare I say it reminds me of an Audi R8?
i think it looks pretty good, and super aerodynamic. best looking hybrid i've seen in fact
They didn't have to make it ugly as sin. I'm sure they'll change it a bit though.
I agree, I think it's a bad ass car but they always stick pretty cool models to hybrid :/ stick an extremely altered W12 in it!!
Starting to look like all the cars in those 80's movies about the future.
Im pretty sure they're going to put covers over the rear tires when this comes to market, dont know if that will help the looks but at least the width of the tires would be hidden
well it looks like its running on bicycle tires! if your getting that kind o economy then it shouldint matter much.
I thought it was ok until I got to this pic. now my screens covered in vomit.
Big tires would screw up the gas mileage. And I thought the front was the best looking part of this car, and the back.... well it's aerodynamic I guess
if they had huge rear tires this would look awesome! id say the front needs some work though
Nice shape ( even if it smells like R8) and put the rear wheel "covers" back on and get rid of that rear end, it makes the car look disgusting. And please add more power
It looks like the chassis gets more narrow as you go along, they should've at least made the chassis width equal front and back. Who knows, it could be because its a mule.
Are those rear facing cameras on the doors? Maybe thats how, although I'd rather just be able to turn my head and see.
there should be a Hp limit for cars with gullwing doors... 500+ or you get an rpg to the grill
Less weight gives you better efficiency.. Its a lot better than making it out of aluminum or plastic
i find it weird how they got the hybrid jetta up to 185mph
Stick a 15 gal fuel tank on there and you'll never need to refuel again.
Oil companies won't allow this
Add another 800 pounds to the weight for safety equipment, a bigger gas burning engine and some pointless tail fin it may be able to sell in the US.
