Looks like the Secular Muslim Nation of Turkey,

Has some scientific leadership.

I would not trust that car anymore then a Prius or a fancy golf cart.

These ultra light motor vehicles with minimal road resistance, warning that means they tend to - skid under stress, leave the passengers inside a well padded hockey puck.

So I will remain in my Ford Expedition, 4 wheel drive but, encourage all of you to purchase one of these light weight cars just in case we are involved in an accident between our vehicles. 🙄

1336 mpg? Hmm... they say 568 kilometers per 1 liter of hydrogen.

The question is - at what pressure is that liter? Gases are compressible, and, say at 150atm - you get ~150 liters at normal pressure from 1 liter.

I can try to calculate approximate engine's power output and power to weight ratio if you are interested.
