Trident is yet another small automaker that promises to save the world’s fuel supplies and at the same time allow us petrol heads to have a blast while we’re at it. The British firm said today that the Iceni, which has been under development for quite some time now, is nearing production. The compact two-seater that weighs in at 1,480 kg or 3,262 lbs is powered by a massive 6.6-liter V8 turbo diesel engine that can run on any kind of biodiesel without any invalidation of warranty, adjustment to the engine or affect on performance. -ContinuedThe 6.6 V8 develops an output of 550 bhp at 3,800 rpm and an outrageous 950lb/ft of torque at just 1,800 rpm. The British automaker claims that the rear-wheel-drive Iceni can sprint from 0 to 60mph (96km/h) in just 3.7 sec and achieve a top speed in excess of 200mph or 321 km/h. At the same time Trident supports that its sports car can manage 68.9mpg
