X PRIZE Teams Spotlight
Teams from all over the world have signed a letter of intent to compete in the Progressive Automotive X PRIZE. These teams range from students to start-up companies to large manufacturers, all of whom are creating production-capable, 100 MPGe (miles per gallon energy equivalent) vehicles that people will want to buy and that meet market needs for price, size, capability, safety and performance.
