100mpg Brit hatch

Brit hatch hits 100mpg

Axon 8080

14th November 2007

Axon Automotive has steered clear of complicated hybrid technology or alternative fuels in favour of making its 8080 ultra-light and highly aerodynamic.

Extensive use of carbon fibre means the car requires less power to accelerate, while stop-start technology boosts mpg in town. Axon, based in Wellingborough, Northants, claims the model will rival the MINI One for pace. The firm has already developed a modified 131mpg Caterham 7.
