Another cool car – 230 mpg

3 wheeled electric car - Aptera.

Update: Oops. Gael pointed out that this car doesn't go 230 miles per hour but instead goes 230 miles per gallon.

From Gizmo:

We heard rumblings of the electric three-wheeled Aptera over a year ago but now the company has opened up an annoying and overwrought website soliciting "reservations," meaning you can plunk down $500 and get the right to buy either the all-electric or plug-in diesel hybrid model. The good news is, there's a working prototype with specs that are jaw-dropping. (more...)

I went to the site of Aptera to look up the specs. Nowhere does it say that it goes 230 mph. However it does say it goes 230 mpg. I think you made a typo.
