Yup think tjts1 just said it all,
I look at the European Diesels that get these great mileage and t was not just the emissions that cause the problem it is a safety factor as well. There are safety restrictions that would add hundreds of lbs. to a car to meet the standards and also kill that desirable super high MPG many of us here want.
For past 5 years Tata has wanted to get a cheap and fe car to the North American market but it fails time and time again.
I do dig the focus but it seems to be par for its class it is not super, but not bad at all it is better than its last generation in specs but time will tell. I would buy a Ford as a more reliable better put together car well before Hyundai. I see many old seriously abused focuses on the roads than accents that is just my opinion though.
