Eco Factor: Fuel-efficient car powered by a hybrid engine.
Russian billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov has unveiled the country’s first hybrid car that is anticipated to hit the streets in 2012. Christened the e-Mobile hybrid car, the vehicle is the first in country, where motorists don’t often show much regard for the environment. The fuel-efficient vehicle is a joint venture between Mikhail Prokhorov’s financial holding company Onexim Group and car maker Yarovit.
The car, which is expected to sell for $14,500, is powered by a combination of electricity and petrol. The ultra-cheap hybrid will offer a top speed of 81mph and a fuel efficiency of 67 miles per gallon.
