LONDON: James Dyson, famed for his vacuum cleaners, hinted on Thursday that his electric car would be more energy efficient than rivals - and with"very large wheels" for city and rough-terrain driving.

The British engineering entrepreneur acknowledged the patents were deliberately light on specifics but said"they do reveal some of the ways we might improve Battery Electric Vehicles". "Such an approach is cost effective, however it tends to miss opportunities for mass-reduction and aerodynamic improvements which would improve the energy efficiency of the vehicle," he said.Dyson also noted the drawback of focusing on smaller vehicles to reduce mass and extend driving range.
