A high school team from Evansville, Indiana built a 2,843.4 mile per gallon car with a three-wheeled, combustion-engine design. The car won top prize at the 2008 Shell Eco-Marathon held in Fontana, California. Pretty nice ride, although being that close to the ground might not work so well for potholes.

Nowhere for them to sit, anyway, unless they made a 1,422 MPG 2-seater model.
