British sports carmaker, Caterham Cars, has taken part in the annual MPG Marathon for the first time with the Seven 160, its most economical Seven model.
The MPG Marathon, U.K.’s leading lean driving challenge, took place between 29th to 30th September, with a 595km route.
Caterham competed with its most frugal Seven ever built and, driven by Pistonheads' John Mahoney, the 160 competed in the class for passenger cars powered by petrol with CO2 emissions of 101g/km - 190g/km. The Seven 160 achieved an overall MPG of 59.03 (25.1km/L) during the course of the event - a 2.48 percent improvement on the 160's official 57.6mpg (24.5km/L).
The MPG Marathon saw the iconic Seven, a car which brings unrivalled levels of efficiency, fun and value for money to the sportscar segment, standing out from the crowd as the only two-seater sports car participating.
Caterham Cars' Chief Commercial Officer, David Ridley, said, "The 160's impressive performance in this event proves that the Seven really does deliver everything, proving that fuel economy doesn't have to come at the expense of a fun drive."
