I'm surprised no one mentioned the coolest stats:

Official euro rating 261 mpg

All carbon fiber construction, weighs only 1,795 lbs

47hp 800cc diesel twin
27hp electric motor
Both feed into a twin-clutch DSG

Slippery shape (cd 0.189) and low friction means in takes only 8.3 hp to cruise at 62 mph

They are TEENIE two seaters, significantly smaller than a Miata

They will not be for sale, only lease, and only 50 will be built
