Why you can't buy a high MPG car...
...There's no market for these cars here. No matter what you say, nobody wants to buy a tiny, low power diesel car when the North American standard is still "mah pickup taruck~". Finding a tiny loophole that allows you to blame the government is highly ignorant.
If there was more demand there would be more cars, and likely more cars built to US standards, or standards would be amended to compensate for small cars. As it stands right now, the efficiency laws are incredibly tight to reduce emissions on high-traffic fleet diesels and to force new technology before diesels take off and emissions become an issue.
