The organizers of the Automotive X-Prize have released the full list registered entrants for the upcoming super-mileage competition. By the time registrations closed a total of 111 teams had completed the process and are now eligible to compete. Those teams have entered a total of 136 vehicles with 80 of those being in the mainstream class and the remainder being in the alternative class. Eleven different countries are represented along with 14 fuel sources.
Fuel sources include the usual suspects such as pure battery electric (32), gas and diesel electric hybrids (36) and straight gas, diesel and compressed natural gas vehicles. There are also solar/electric hybrids, hydrogen, compressed air and a hybrid human/gas/electric vehicle. As expected there are the oddballs such as urea and water powered vehicles.
Among the registered teams you’ll find familiar names such as Aptera, Zap, Tesla and Velozzi as well as a plethora of unknowns. Click on the link for the full list.
