---CHINA'S NEW LITTLE CAR"​CINDY"​

aka "THE HIGHWAY SUPPOSITORY"   

 This is not a joke, they do sell for $600.00 and 
they won’t be able to make them fast enough.  
Here's a one seat car that will get you back 
and forth to work on the cheap...
This $600 Volkswagen's car gets 258 mpg, 
109.687 km/l or 0.9 litre per 100 km!!! 
 
 
 
This $600 car is not a toy; it will be ready for 
release 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; it was not announced 
until now where the car would make its first appearance.
 The car was introduced at the VW stockholders 
meeting as the most economical car in the world !
 The initial objective of the prototype was to prove that 
1 litre of fuel could deliver 100  kilometres of travel.
 
  
 Its Spartan interior does not sacrifice safety; the impact 
and roll-over protection is comparable to a GT racing car.  
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 fibre 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.  
The Most Economic Car in the World will be on sale next year:
