Next generation Very Light Car revealed

  Automotive X-Prize champ Edison2 has unveiled the latest version of its super fuel efficient VLC, or Very Light Car, as the teardrop-shaped vehicle moves several steps closer to production. 

 

  The prototype VLC won the competition with a highway fuel economy of 129 mpg, thanks to an extremely aerodynamic body and a curb weight of under 1,000 pounds, which meant it could be powered by a 250cc single-cylinder engine, like a small motorcycle. An electric version later delivered the equivalent of 350 mpg.
