PROGRESSIVE INSURANCE AUTOMOTIVE X PRIZE OVERVIEW & GOALS"The Progressive Insurance Automotive X PRIZE is a global competition that awards a $10M Grand Prize to the first team to build a car that gets at least 100 MPGe in real world driving and is safe, affordable and desirable to offer consumers more efficient vehicle choices.
