We’re making extraordinary leaps these days when it comes to technology. While so many automakers are fumbling trying to design electric cars and the like that increase fuel efficiency, English engineer Gordon Murray has designed a tiny three-seater that already gets 80 mpg… he’s working on achieving 100.
