Very cool. That car will hopefully come out soon, but the government doesn't want that car to ruin the Middle East's economy.

It costs $170,000 to build. And apparently it only holds 1 liter.

I wonder what the top speed of that...thing is. And how the hell do they manage to get it to only 240 lbs? Like with the engine, and axles and transmission and crap. Unless... It doesn't have any of that.

did you know that since hydrogen fuel isnt created naturally we have to man-make it. and it takes lke 10 times more energy to make hydrogen fuel that the hydrogen fuel produces ._. so uhh anyway yeah thats some good mpg definitely. lol
