This Joint needs a Smokescreen… then it’ll be straight
Duetschland yet again comes through with another tight whip.AA This is the Loremo AG, a car that is going to make its debut at the upcoming auto show in Geneva, and due to be on sale in Europe as a 2009 model.AA Using no fancy hybrid or fuel cell drivetrains, this stylish little bugger gets an impressive 157mpg or 87mpg depending on which model you buy, the LS or the GT.AA With a starting price of just 11,000 euros, you’ll get impressive aerodynamics, an incredibly low curb weight (under 1000 lbs), and a tiny two or three cylinder diesel engine.
I had been thinking of coppin’ a M-1 Abrams tank to put all those SUV-driving soccer mom’s and rappers in their place and show them who’s the realest ninja of them all, but now I don’t know, a Loremo AG would look real tiiiiiiight rollin on some 24’s.AA
AAFor all you gearheads out there, the 157mpg LS runs on a 2-cylinder, 20hp engine, with an abyssmal 0-60 time of 20 secs.AA The speedier GT, with its 3-cylinder 50hp engine, will get you to 60mph from a standstill in a more reasonable 9 seconds.AA While neither car is likely to become a champion on the drag racing circuit, with rear-wheel drive, low weight, and a mid-engine layout, the car should handle pretty well while navigating European roads.
