Editors Note:I met first Doug Pelmear in its exhibition booth Downstairs (auto journalists you know what that means) at Detroit Auto Show some years back had just driven Doug's HP2g powered 1987 Ford Mustang by snowstorm with its home base in Napoleon, Ohio to Detroit.
Doug comes from a long line of car guy innovators and buiders and is himself inventor HP2g, 400 horsepower V8 Hybrid engine with variable displacement and Pulse — electromagnetic drive gets 110 MPG running on E-85 fuel in the real world, where accoring to my math is so beneficial to our countries, the need to reduce our dependance on oil as vehicle petrol, which gets over 500 MPG, no typo 500 MPG.
For further information about his invention MPG E-85 Hybrid breakthrough 110 I asked him if he would smile still tell me after the Detroit Big Three suits (ah history) to start bidding war saw what he had invented and proved how could any exec car worth his salt is understood as HP2g Doug's American car makers could fill the need for immediate solutions that would enable them to build and sell large cars (profitable) North American drivers such as and when market equivalent mileage gas 90% less petrol than Toyota Prius would use a must.
Coincidently the year Detroit show noise xPrize started no more than 100 metres from where 110 Doug's HP2g MPG powered Mustang waited for his adoration … and said to Doug xPrize can save you much time and effort and you can just write a check for US $ 10 million, but never happened.
In fact, when the "winners" xPrize announced several weeks ago blew My mind that Doug real world road warriors full-medium was the winner, but instead, the winner was what it looked like to me simply another science fair project and e-sent Doug link to my story and asked him to please comment, is his answer.

Many people with me as I think about Prize X now. My thoughts are mixed with the Progressive Automotive X Prize competition.
First, I am delighted to be part of this event, which encouraged awareness and creative thinking to find better ideas for transport.
Congratulations to the winners in Progressive Automotive X Prize.We may share the understanding of the hard work and dedication of the project Real if not X Prize was for, And do not have outside HP2g Hybrid Engine for several years more due to intellectual property.
Then I'm not disappointed with their verification tests.X Prize started out saying that the study would be real world driving in city traffic, mountains and highway from New York to California. what happened to this section?
HP2g is "genuine world" and tested EPA.It has been driven all over the USA.from Ohio to Las Vegas, New York City's Times Square, Atlantic City, Washington, through the Great Smokey Mountains, Mackinaw and back to Ohio.HP2g was all types of weather. Example: It driven to the North American International Auto Show in bad snow storm, where couldn't see the road, but you can hear the snow and ice dragging on the floor of the car to navigate through HP2g. desserts Southwest with hot temperatures, sand storms, rain and snow on HP2g has also been variables in high altitudes as much as 10 000 ' in the Rockies with more than one rider, supplemented by the necessities of the trip (suit cases, ice chest, emergency tools, spare parts … even spare tyres) has driven over 38 HP2g hours straight through only stopping stretch and switch drivers to prove the stability of the product.
HP2g ™ Hybrid Engine runs on E85 fuel, 400 Horse Power (HP), 500 Foot pounds of torque (ft-tq) and averages 110 MPG. our products are designed to power and transportation of cargo by transport: labour, emergency vehicles, agricultural and marine.
Senior Citizen made a point to me by saying cars X Prize is not designed for them. 6 ' 5 "person with hip-cz esci parts wants to drive across the country ...not folded in half to, forget not the Mama of kid ply in back so close is easy.
Complete Prize was made for the average consumer practice. "What is considered: Big, Tall, short, parents, older or even handicapped person? extreme weather conditions, high winds, rough terrain and or towing test done at track? I believe that they fell short. Doug Pelmear HP2g. com
