356 Replica Makes it Easy to Be Green

Sure, PGO Auto’s Cvennes Turbo-CNG looks pretty. It’s a 356 replica, how could it not? But it’s the fact that it runs on compressed natural gas which makes it so drop-dead sexy. The green machine puts out a respectable 155 horsepower from its turbo 1.6 liter four-banger, and with a presumably low curb weight, performance shouldn’t be an issue. The company hasn’t decided whether to actually bring the car into production yet, so reaction from the crowds at the Geneva Auto Show will probably determine its fate. Here’s hoping the brass likes what they hear. More at Winding Road.
