The exotics are just way too expensive.Steel is cheap,easy to form and bond and design for crumple.Tool and die-making is in the bag.
With the exception of the windshield,there is no reason why this car would cost any more than a Kia Rio or entry level Hyundai.
If the traffic engineers will time the traffic lights ( which is their duty to do ) and lose the left turns ( which can be legislated by any Chief of Police ),all cars will get double their City MPG with no change to the car whatsoever and the streamlining will take care of the Hwy.
My other recommendations cannot be mentioned here.
