This has made the bbc news page, but it doesnt sound to me like the car is fuel efficient at all, quick calculation shows they need to achieve 360 miles to a tank of fuel or better to complete the trip around the world in their allowed fuel allocation.
Now if the fuel tank is say 60l, thats 6 miles per litre or 27.3mpg which is quite frankly appauling for a "fuel economy driving achievement". I would be expecting 60+mpg the majority of the time easily for an achievement, didnt VW make a lupo which could perform 93mpg?
