What I am writing about today is a new kind of car where the recent model (Jetcar 2.5) consumes only 2.5 liter of fuel per 100 km. That’s around 1 gallone per 100 miles. It is a hand-built and custom made car from a German company called Jetcar Zukunftsfahrzeug GmbH.

I first read about this company and its products in an article (German) in my favorite daily newspaper. Two brothers are running the company. They also own a company which does wind energy solutions which cross finances the Jetcar company. What a smart move!

Their engineers are already working on a convertible and the Jetcar 1.5 which will only need 1.5 liter per 100 km.
