Yes, I think that their's is a great approach. Also Oliver Kuttner is about 1000% better as a spokesperson than Marques was for Aptera, in my view. Their vehicle, with its 250cc engine and sophisticated combustion control, points the way for success in obtaining 100 mpg: a very small highly-loaded engine being the fundamental key. Great demo for the value of doing the math first.

Jason Hill's work on the visual design of the body has been really impressive, too. Check out his blog: designby11
