Progressive Automotive X PRIZE Overview

The Progressive Automotive X PRIZE is a multiyear competition in which $10 million in prize money will be awarded to teams that design clean, production capable vehicles that meet all of the following requirements:

• Exceed 100 mpge or the equivalent (Some cars might not be fueled strictly by gasoline, so they would need to produce a gasoline equivalent of 100 mpge.).
• Meet strict emission requirements.
• Can compete in rigorous stage races that test real-world driving conditions.
• Be safe, affordable, and desirable.
