The FVT eVaro is a hybrid that gets 275 mpg and [tops out at 135 mph](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ev-9-gt). Wow. I’m already sold. The FVT eVaro isn’t available to purchase just yet. It has to compete in the Automotive X-Prize contest first. The grand prize is $10,000,000, certainly a nice chunk of change for any [start up automotive company](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mercedesamg-one).
