Their claims seem overrated. My VW diesel gets 50 mpg. My Mercedes about 30 mpg.
What turned me off was that to see their data you needed to send them 50 dollars.

They have a demo F150 turbodiesel swap that averages around 40 MPG. Your car might be a bit of a slug off the line with the lack of HP and zero top end power, but 170 pounds of torque is enough to cruise at 65.
