Website: Automotive X Prize

There is a new website running, designed to break our oil dependence and the climate change that results from burning that oil, and so hopefully keeping our passion for cars by making them greener.

The Automotive X PRIZE will invite teams from around the world to focus on a single goal: design, build and sell super-efficient cars that people want to buy. The first site is devoted to provide background information and resources on the competition; the second site is a blog that hopes to use fair, honest and expert communication to voice the realities of the global automotive industry as well as challenge current market assumptions on their way to sponsoring and promoting the competition's winners. The specific rules are still in development, so until the competition launches, head over there and learn a thing or two about what might be the next big thing in automobiles.
