sounds a lot like the Gen1 Honda Insight, except my Insight can carry a passenger, and i could take it camping, etc etc its fairly close to a 'normal' car. where as this thing is a lot closer to a motorcycle

84mpg highway is pretty good, but again, i still beat that w/ my Insight, so i'm not too impressed. i'd have to see 120mpg to even consider driving such a little 'car' as this..... and even then i doubt i'd pull the trigger and sell my Insight...... 150mpg, yeah Ok i couldnt turn that down, but thats nearly double what this thing gets, so 'dream on' i suppose!
