No progress as there is no money to buy the car. Last year I paid myself 0€ salary during whole year... So in short its not easy to make money by making fuel efficient products to market with tiny budget even the ideas and execution are world class...

Anyway there is hope of better as Ziptie plug patent went through and more patents will follow. At the moment all my money is spent to get first plastic injected plugs ready for sales. So A8 project will not start sooner than I have the plugs.

A6 wont work as those will rust.
