China launches $600 car that  will get 258mpg

*This $600 car is no  toy and is ready to be released in China next  year.
*
*The single seater 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 is  presented.
*
*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 roll-over  protection is 
comparable to the GT racing  cars.
*



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