I just got this information this morning so it is very new to me. I have not yet investigated anything about Doug Pelmear, but opened his first manufacturing facility on May 31 to produce car engines that get 110-mpg.
The facility is located in Wauseon, OH and will employ 25 workers initially and produce about 20 engines per day. The engine is rated at 400-horsepower, 500 foot-pounds of torque, and is capable of speeds of up to 200 mph (but not 110-mpg at the same time).
His first customer is a specialty car company called Revenge Designs, Inc. which will unveil its new vehicle at the end of this year.
I just found another article that indicates that Doug Pelmear has withdrawn his engine's entry in the Progressive Auto X Prize competition.
This is all starting to look a bit odd. I'm not so sure all this is on the up and up, but let's hope this all works out and revolutionizes the transportation industry. The proof is in the pudding.
