Well I of course wasn't referring to the hybrid cars alone here....I think you will see that 39,000+ vehicles in total is a decent enough database, particularly if comparisons with diesels and other models are deemed to be appropriate.



With the smart cars, despite the tuning of CDN cars to account for the (presently) crappy Diesel fuel in Canada - which burns more fuel, Canadians are quite competitive with the German-operated cdis.

Driving over there - particularly amongst those who bother to post in a fuel economy forum like that - is not as different as you may think.
