✦ Synopsis
In the event, however, the weather conditions were too poor for any record bids -the vehicle is only designed to run in very low winds. (The Ech2o team is currently carrying out a series of 'internal trials' to gauge the car's performance, according to BOC's Stewart Dow.) The best run achieved on the day was 8263 mpg by the gasoline-powered Microjoule vehicle from France.
The fuel efficiency record is currently held by PAC-Car II, a hydrogen-fueled Swiss vehicle that recently achieved 15 210 mpg (5385 km/l) gasoline equivalent at the Ladoux test track in France [FCB, August], smashing the previous record of 10 705 mpg.
