Corvette-like car gets 100 MPG, ships next year

Posted on 01 January 1970 by

Colorado-based Lightning Hybrids plans to ship this biodiesel-fueled vehicle next year for $50,000 (give or take $10,000). The car is a hybrid, but not a gas-electric hybrid like the Prius. It’s got a biodiesel engine and a 150 hp hydraulic motor/pump and accumulator system. It should offer a total of 240 hp and go zero to sixty in under six seconds. Best of all, because it’s biodiesel, its exhaust will smell like french fries.
