VW Lupo-II/SH (Semi-Hybrid)
A partly composite frame and body, with a titanium or whatever
super-alloy engine of a 1.5 liter 3 cylinder and stator tuned
turbo-diesel format, along with a 6 or 7 speed automatic transmission,
whereas there's little reason why we don't have an affordable 90 shp
fuel efficient alternative that's capable of cruising four of us down
the pike at nearly 100 mpg as of a decade ago, and having that 250,000
mile or 10 year warranty to boot.

Of course at the usual 1000% gross profit margin is why that level of
automotive transport technology would have to cost you better than
$50,000. But then China or perhaps India could mass produce the same or
better item that would retail for as little as $10,000.

A titanium alloy beer can filled with hard foam and perhaps N2 is
actually quite strong, at about 10% the conventional mass of a steel
framed and steel covered body.
