Here's a car that will get you back and forth to work cheaply!
  
$600 for the car.
   
258 miles per gallon.
   
Only a one seat, however!

Talk about cheap transportation.

Volkswagen's $600 car gets 258 mpg!
It looks like Ford, Chrysler and GM missed the boat again!

China launches $600 car that will get 258 mpg.

This $600 car is no toy and is ready to be released in China next year.
The single seat aero car totes VW (Volkswagen) branding.

Volkswagen did a lot of very highly protected testing of this car in  Germany,
  but it was not announced until now where the car would make it's first appearance.

The car was introduced at the VW stockholders meeting as the most economical car in the world.

The initial objective of the prototype was to prove
that 1 liter of fuel could deliver 100 kilos of travel.


Spartan interior doesn't sacrifice safety.

The aero design proved essential to getting the desired result.
The body is 3.47 meters long and just 1.25 meters wide,
and a little over a meter high.
The prototype was made completely of carbon fiber
and is not painted to save weight.
The power plant is a one cylinder diesel
positioned ahead of the rear axle
and combined with an automatic shift
controlled by a knob in the interior.

Safety was not compromised as the impact and rollover protection is comparable to the GT racing cars.



The Most Economic Car in the World will be on sale next year:

Better than Electric Car - 258 miles/gallon:
This is a single seated car.
From conception to production: 3 years
and the company is headquartered in Hamburg, Germany.

It will be selling for 4000 Yuan, equivalent to U.S. $600.00.

Gas tank capacity = 1.7 Gallons 
Speed = 62 kilometers =74.6 Miles per hour
Fuel efficiency = 258 Miles per gallon.
Travel distance with a full tank = 404 miles.
