Volkswagen to make limited edition of 1Liter car. This looks kind of interesting.
Let's hope that they do a few things right. Make it plug in. Make it easy to park under some solar panels and charge it up. Make it easy to add more batteries. Add a tow hitch so you can pull a small trailer (canoe/kayak, bikes, groceries for a family). Do not engineer it fall apart like so many of the current VWs are doing (windows quit working, headrests fall off, etc. they lost reliability along the way)
But as a commuter car - 282 MPG sounds preety sweet.

Cool vehicle but perhaps not too functional in the American lifestyle as we know it.... Mini Cooper is supposedly coming out with an electric-only version for California. I'd love to get one of those!
