FVT Leads From Start To Finish
FVT has been at the forefront of the
X Prize competition from the initial kickoff in New York (shown here with Mayor Bloomberg)
up to the most recent announcement of the final 41 teams
We are committed to not only win the race, but the hearts and minds of all those dedicated to solving both the energy and pollution delimmas we face today.
Introducing the eVaro
The eVaro is FVT’s newest prototype and the next generation in series hybrid development. It is a high performance sports car with outstanding specifications.
The eVaro is FVT’s entry in the X-Prize competition and will ultimately become our first production vehicle.
Specifications
0 to 60 mph in under 5 seconds
Peak economy of over 275 MPGe
(miles per gallon equivalent)
125 mile range on electricity alone
Over 400 mile total range with onboard generator
3 hour re-charge time
Incredible Design
While the eVaro has unprecedented performance, her breath taking design appeal is equally remarkable.
The beauty of this vehicle is not just a head turner - it stops busy people in their tracks.

It all started with the first generation platform we called the Ale. At 92 mpg and an acceleration of 0 to 60 in under 5 seconds, the Ale served as an invaluable proving ground for our initial system concepts. We knew, however, that we needed radical new power technologies to leap past the 100mpge goal of the X Prize. The result of bringing together the practical knowledge of the original Ale team, with world class researchers has now brought us the eVaro. Built on the proven foundation refined during the Ale series testing, the eVaro adds series hybrid technology, along with a number of as yet unannounced breakthroughs to give us an overall system performance that is completely unprecedented.
