Avion The Lightweight Sports Car

Avion: The Lightweight Sports Car

Op zaterdag 11 oktober, Craig Henderson vernield zijn oude World Book record (103.7MPG) en een nieuw wereldrecord in brandstofverbruik (113.1MPG) wanneer hij reed zijn lichtgewicht en aƫrodynamische auto - de Avion - van de Canadese grens en de Oregon grens.

Henderson, een inwoner van Bellingham, WA, de eerste Avion prototype in 1984 en reed in het Guinness Book of World Records in 1986, na een grens-tot-grens trip die gemiddeld 103,7 mijl per gallon.

In dat opname-instelling reis, hij reed langs de westkust van Mexico tot Canada.

Henderson is een uitdager in de $ 10 miljoen Progressive Insurance Automotive X PRIZE.

Hij is onder meer dan 120 teams uit 28 landen en 17 landen die een intentieverklaring ondertekend om te concurreren voor hun aandeel in een $ 10 miljoen prijs portemonnee, die zal worden toegekend aan diegenen die zich het ontwerp en de bouw van productie-staat, 100 MPGe (mijl per gallon energie equivalent) voertuigen die mensen willen kopen en die voldoen aan de behoeften van de markt voor de prijs, de omvang, capaciteit, veiligheid en prestaties.
