Sorry to keep beating this to death.
Apples to apples:
Honda Insight:
1,9xx pounds
.25 coefficient of drag
70 mpg EPA (old math)
Toyota Prius:
2,9xx pounds
.26 coefficient of drag
60 mpg EPA (old math)
What's the difference? weight.
Replace all that hybrid crap and motor with a VW 1.9 turbo diesel running bio and it would be hovering closer to the magic 100mpg than either of these.
