I was reading the article
New
wave of hybrids offer more mean, less green this
morning when I came across the Engima. The Enigma is a
diesel hybrid performance vehicle that was created by
University of San Diego Engineering Professor Jim Burns.
While it achieves 80 mpg, the $60,000 hybrid vehicle also
goes from 0 to 60 in a blazingly fast 4.3 seconds (Mr.
Burns is willing to sell the vehicles for $60,000.00, if
he could obtain 1000 orders).
This is another example of what hybrid
cars could do, so why doesn't the mainstream autoworld
get its act together? Perhaps a company like ZAP
will get involved - keep your fingers crossed.
