Hello Scotty,
I've recently watched the Tucker Carslon's interview with Casey. He has made a prototype car which has 100+ MPG.
It is using some 4 stroke turbo diesel VW engine.
How do you think this MPG is achieved by? My thoughts were weight and aerodynamics.
What do you think about it?

He has made a prototype car which has 100+ MPG.

Under what conditions?

In the past there have been many claims about cars that can achieve 100 miles per gallon. They have all turned out to either be frauds or specialty vehicles not suitable for mass production and regular use.

For example, the Subaru X-100 Gyronaut (designed by none other than Alex Tremulis) achieved 100 miles per gallon but is not exactly something that was feasible to mass-produce and sell to the public:

@chucktobias
Well, he talks about it in his youtube videos, not exactly talking how he has achieved this. Just saying using "great design"

He tasted it out for a bit on the countryside.
Would be interesting what Scotty would say about this.

I'm sure it's a fantastic car. There's just one problem... Nobody is going to buy it.
