Burn some rubber without burning fuel

Go eco-friendly with Ronn Motors' Scorpion supercar. It's the green car that should leave your mates green with envy - the Scorpion from Ronn Motors.

This newly-launched supercar can do 0-60mph in just 3.5 seconds and keep accelerating to a top speed of 200mph. But this is no straightforward gas guzzler, with the Scorpion packing a 1.5 gallon tank for water electrolysis, which means hydrogen on demand and a boost of fuel consumption to 40mpg. And that could be boosted even further, with Ronn Motors currently working on a method of capturing condensation to self-replenish the tank. Petrol price hike? Who cares!

Ok, there are downsides. For a start, the Scorpion is strictly for singletons - no room for kids, not to mention the weekly shop. And the $150,000 price tag might just restrict the market too. But if you're after a high-end racer to see you through a midlife crisis, the Scorpion does it with a conscience.
