So, this year it will be interesting.
So we've done a lot of changes in the suspension especially
to kind of compensate for the more urban market
and urban roadways.
So our goal this year is, believe it or not,
to actually surpass anything this car has ever done,
and actually top the five thousand per gallon mark,
and I think we're definitely capable of that.
[ Pause ]
We have received just upper two thousands miles per gallon
equivalent, and we took it back after the 2008 race,
made some dramatic improvements to the car in terms
of efficiency, put in a new, more efficient electric motor,
did some things with the aerodynamics
from an aerodynamic standpoint, took it back in 2009
to the Shell Eco-marathon [assumed spelling] in Fontana,
California, and almost topped the five thousand mile per
gallon mark.

And the driver of Solaritus [assumed spelling] will be
seated upright.
You'll have the side doors, so it's really, we're really headed
in the right direction as far as, you know,
what the market is, the market demand is for today in trying
to kind of post-centralize our focus on today's public,
and really take our goal one step further,
not only making our vehicles efficient, but making them,
you know, useful to today's market.
