Earlier this week Volkswagen took center stage at the Frankfurt Motor Show to show us their extremely futuristic looking diesel-powered L1 concept. They then followed suit and showed us the E-Up! concept, an all electric vehicle which we now know is expected to go into production by 2013.
Well, it seems that VW wasn’t done talking about the L1 concept as they have recently let us know that they expect it to enter production right around the same time as the E-Up! (sometime around 2013) and that it will get 170MPG. This goes along with the previous statement that the L1 will travel 100 kilometers using just 1.38 liters of diesel fuel.
While there’s no telling if the L1 concept will every actually hit the streets, if/when it does it’s sure to look nothing like what is pictured above.
