Palumbo Car Company preparing one small wonder. Gas-electric hybrid named M80. This two seat, mid-engine car will be truly sport car in soul, but still practical enough to be driven everyday. It’s roadster with rear wheels driven by 350 horsepower engine through CVT transmission. 0-60 MPH is claimed at 3.9 seconds with 46mpg economy (on Sunday afternoon, on your way to track). We love the look, we love the specs, where we sign Mr. Palumbo?
Trident Iceni is one special beast. Let’s forget for a minute that look like biodiesel is actually worst for environment and enjoy in this supercar. 0-100 in 3.9 seconds. 6.6-litre V8 – I bet you like that for difference of all electric engines. Iceni actually use GM truck engine tuned to run on biodiesel. Amazing information is that you can run 1,000 miles on one full tank. Fuel efficiency is amazing 60mpg. This two seater produces 450bhp and won’t stay behind any Ferrari you meet on the road.
For difference on many concepts, Trident Iceni is available in UK for £60,000.

Once this beauty is at dealers, it will set you down for around $300,000, but that’s OK, you’ll save the planet and look sexy in your new car.

“Keep you SUV. Forget organics. Go nuclear. Screw the spotted owl.
If you’re serious about global warming, only one thing matters: Cutting carbon.”
Promotional video for Tesla supercar. 0-100 in 4 seconds and fully electric with around 240 miles on single charge. At the moment this is only fully electric supercar on sale. We heard about few problems with gearbox, but for now it’s doing great.
Childish part of me still likes car crashes. This time it’s in green way – Telstra Roadster done very well in this test. 5 minutes of twisted metal slow motion action.
Guys from Top Gear bring few advices on fuel economy. First is race of supercars on 1 gallon of fuel. Then Prius vs BWM M3 mpg-10 lap race. And you know who will win…
At the end – massage is entirely correct – “change your driving style, not only car”.
World is changing and to keep primacy in their field – companies change too. Morgan, manufacture of some of most beautiful cars on the World, gone green with new model – LIFE. This unbelievable good looking car run on 4 electric motors with zero emission and real sport car enjoyment. Plus 0-60 miles in 7 seconds, 250-mile range and where do I sign?
I think it’s time for banks to join and create loan for “green” cars. Hey! I should have some privilege for saving a earth and buying a car at the same time. OK, I don’t think Morgan will be in my budget range …
