A 1.5 Turbo Disel Sports Car? Yup... - Darkheart

Sorry for the cross-post, I did originally happen to come across this on VW's site but it seems to have vanished now. Anyway I think this is quite a cool achievement, it's called the Eco-Racer and manages to be very fast and sporty while still being very fuel efficient. I think electric cars would sell much better if they went more down this track than some of the others I've seen (I'm thinking particularly of the Smartcar here).

Check it out, it's pretty cool even if it is only a concept car.
