- dodger2020, on 10/24/2009, -0/+20Showing a concept/prototype at an auto show does not mean they're offering it. You'll be lucky to see that car within 10 years - if ever. Awesome (concept) car. ***** submission title.
- SoCalCove, on 10/24/2009, -0/+5Awesome another really cool prototype / design idea that we might see in half a decade or more with 50% of the capabilities and few of the beauty or desire of the original.
Wish we would see more soon to consumer forward thinking models, that prototypes you will never see in real life, let alone use as the prototype was intended. - mrn111, on 10/24/2009, -0/+4***** me, this is too good to be true.
75 mpg, 0-60 in 4 sec, top speed of 155mph, and it looks like this.

We'll see this car in 20 yrs (or whenever they perfect the flux capacitor) at a price of about $40 mil.
Gotta love concepts. - nimadude, on 10/24/2009, -0/+3I think it's taxed in most countries due to dirtier emissions
- Synchro, on 10/24/2009, -0/+2If memory serves it is because it is about the same mixture as home heating oil. So a refinery can make both and they compete. In the winter diesel prices go higher because the demand for home heating oil goes up, production of it goes up so supply of diesel goes down and the price goes up. There are other factors as well, but supposedly this is one of the big ones.
- alanwarp, on 10/24/2009, -0/+2"The concept was influenced by BMW’s Formula One race cars" which they will no longer be building since they are dropping out...
- FunnyData, on 10/23/2009, -0/+1why does diesel cost more then Gas, when Gas cost more to make?
- InactiveUser, on 10/24/2009, -0/+1So it has nothing to do with tax deductibility in the transport sector? Sort of like why Adobe thinks it can bump prices to the coiling because their products are tax refundable items?
- Culyt, on 10/24/2009, -0/+1I would love a pod like electric car, but they tend to cost more than regular full sized ones.
- Tddupre, on 10/23/2009, -0/+1so we keep buying gas and not diesel
- fooljoe, on 10/25/2009, -0/+1amen
news item after news item about the latest ev concept, but so far no car. yet we had perfectly good evs like the rav4-ev and the ev1 a decade ago. - macaca, on 10/24/2009, -0/+1...and by the time it is available, it will be unaffordable for most of the people.
- Nerys, on 10/25/2009, -0/+1Talk about price coughing. In NJ I think the Diesel tax is 64 cents a gallon. SO why is off road diesel only 15 cents cheaper than on road :-) (we use diesel in our heater at work because even FULL tax on road diesel is cheaper than home heating oil. BY A LOT.
