Created by George Parker (Vancouver BC Canada) 2006, the “Alé” is a concept car that has been in development since 1995. The vehicle has an innovative fuel vapor system that allows the engine to run on fuel vapors rather than liquid fuel resulting in 92 miles per U.S. gallon. The engine is a turbo charged 1500cc Honda VTEC D15B engine that gives the alé 0 - 60 time of under 5 seconds with a top speed electronically limited to 140mph. During cornering the vehicle can pull 1.7g’s. The body is a hand-layed fibreglass composite mounted onto a full tube frame with a roll cage. Seating is tandem style with the passenger sitting behind the driver. The company is currently seeking investors to take the alé into production.
