Seems like Vekke's project is right on the money for this one, as his goal easily beats the 100 mpg mark. It is not a hybrid, but it doesn't need to be. I think that setup would stay within the 25K$ mark with room to spare.
Thumbs up for Vekke !

Need more space? An Audi A2 might do the trick, that came in a 3L/100km version too. Add hybrid support & disney dust, who knows...

For confirmation go to people just like you.
For education go to people unlike yourself.
