Top 20 green cars we wish we could buy today, Number 9: Loremo
Loremo (pronounced lo-ray-mo which is short for Low Resistance Mobile) achieves its high level of fuel efficiency by taking current fuel-saving methods to a level almost beyond reason, especially the light weight factor. Engine options consist of either a 2-cylinder 20hp turbodiesel or a 3-cylinder 50hp turbodiesel. The former will get you to sixty miles per hour in a blistering 20 seconds, while the latter will get you there in 9. Fuel efficiency, however, is very impressive - 1.5L per 100 km (translated 188 mpg). Not good enough? They're also working on an all-electric version boasting a top speed of 170kph (105mph), a range of 150 to 200 kilometers (93 to 124 miles) and energy consumption of a measly 6kwh/100kph.
