Default New technologies + New material

What causes high gas consumption really...

- Vehicle weight (that includes vehicle, driver and passengers)
- Aerodynamics
- Vehicle manufacturing material

I think the next step is try and reduce weight. I have seen many solar/electric mods o Hybrids. Has anyone seen weight related mods?
