Loremo on the Edge
German Loremo AG (Munich) introduced their ultra efficient car at the 76th annual Motor Show 2006 in Geneva last month, the Loremo. Geneva Motor Show

Founded in 2000, this new company developed a light-weight passenger car with outstanding aerodynamics. The one, two combination of light weight and tunnel tested aerodynamics allow this car to travel 157 miles per gallon of gasoline or 1.5 l per 100km!

Even with this added gas mileage Loremo didn't sacrifice speed. The base model Loremo LS is powered by a 2 cylinder 20 hp turbo diesel engine that will reach a speed of 100 mph and the GT model will reach up to 135 mph with a 0 to 60 mph acceleration of 9 seconds.

With safety in mind, Loremo patented the "linear cell structure" and used it in their construction process so despite the cars light weight, their cars withstand impact and meet static/dynamic requirements for crash safety.

Loremo AG plans to sell the Loremo LS for less than 11,000 Euros and the GT for 15,000 Euros. Standard features include airbags, particle filter, dashboard computer, and air conditioning.

As Loremo put it, "Loremo is different from all other known cars. The more your will open up to the concept, the greater your excitement about it will become." The Loremo
