Hmmm, 16.6% reduction in weight from "non fuel economy" civics.
16.6% reduction in something that doesn't really matter. Another question, what is the difference between weight and inertia? Maybe we shouldn't be calling them heavy or light flywheels, but high and low inertia flywheels. Is there anything that you can tell about the inertia of the three from there weight?
