GREEN, Ohio, July 11,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- After a decade of waiting,
Genius Garage founder and automotive visionary Casey Putsch has
decided to dust off his experimental and recyclable concept called
"the Omega Car". He envisioned the design concept back in 2008 and
tests its real-world performance and MPG data in a 3-video series.
Link to series of 3-videos.
In a precise experiment, the Omega car driven without its
aerodynamic body panels (wheel covers) and a final tuning, managed
to achieve over 104 MPG in non-highway driving conditions. This
outstanding performance has set the stage for Casey's next
ambitious goal - to burn only 1 ounce of diesel per mile or reach
an impressive 128 MPG.
In a showdown between traditional gasoline sports cars,
diesel-powered efficiency, and cutting-edge electric performance
the Omega concept car recorded an impressive a 0-60 time of
4.61 seconds, matched a C7 Grand Sport Corvette and Tesla Model 3
within 0.01 seconds and beat a Dodge Viper RT/10 by 0.25 seconds.
The hope is to demonstrate that efficiency and performance can go
hand in hand and serve as a benchmark for future developments in
the industry.
With a 0-60 MPH time of 4.61 seconds and having already achieved
104 MPG, the Omega concept car is clearly very fast, but it is also
cheaper than the Tesla to drive per mile, has no toxic and costly
batteries to replace, has the low maintenance of diesel engines,
and is the only car design to put affordability and sustainability
as a top priority.
The sustainability factor plays a crucial role in Putsch's
vision for the automotive industry. With the focus on
affordability, recyclability, and environmental impact, the Omega
car is poised to set a new standard for eco-friendly transportation
solutions. The real-world performance and MPG data gathered from
this test will provide valuable insights into the invention's
potential to reshape the industry.
"The Omega car holds the potential to revolutionize the
automotive industry with its sustainable features," said Putsch.
"By subjecting it to rigorous testing for performance and MPG data,
our goal is to verify its capabilities and assess its impact on the
environment. This is a significant milestone in our journey towards
advocating for sustainability in the automotive sector."
