  • "How do they do that". Cars have been purposely designed to be less efficient in american for many years. The average car in 1970 got better millage than a regular gas car you can buy now.

  • I think what this video is trying to say is that we should buy these kind of cars even if they look bad to screw the fucking arabs with their gas so they can become the poverty of the world where they belong

  • @iciavosser Ummm the supply would increase and the demand would decrease thus the price of gas would go through the floor, not through the roof.

  • This is good I'm saving up for this but many I would like it in a different style but the white is sexy

  • Every man's dream? I saw a similar vehicle mentioned online at fasteconomicalcars (.) com

  • Seems to me that if we all suddenly were getting 300 MPG, then we'd be using less gas, right? And that'd make the price of gasoline go through the roof. I'm just sayin'.

  • Uh, I had a 1997-3 cylinder Geo- Metro, 5pd........a great little commuter car. If I drove carefully I could get 60 mpg, and this is without many of the newer fuel saving technologies (variable valve timing, auto shutdown at stop, ultra lean burn mode, gas direct injection to name a few). I could see a little car like the Geo getting close to 100 mpg with some reworking of the systems. Problem is that little car would cost 20 grand, would it even sell? maybe if gas goes to 5 bucks a gallon.

  • $90 mountain bike kicks its ass for efficiency.

  • @guesswhoiam123 DO THE MATH and consider the savings on maintainance and fuel and you will see it's far cheaper in the long haul. Not even close.
