VW working on "production" 100km per liter car

VW is working on producing a 100km per liter car, and obviously the key word here is production. The news is being reported on this Aussie site, but first surfaced on the UK's CAR site. So in Australia, that means one could travel from Sydney to Brisbane on just 10 litres of fuel.

Sound too wild to be true? Perhaps, but VW says it can it, and by 2010, so I guess we'll see. Not much is known about the car, but VW did show a concept back in 2002 (pictured) which might well be the basis of this new vehicle.

Full story here.

Wait, that's 235mpg. That can't be right.

It doesn't look like it's mean for the US market, unless they make it a 3-wheeler and license it as a motorcycle.

VW can't make a reliable ignition coil or window regulator, so I'll beleive this when I see it.
