ABG: Top Gear -- BMW M3 vs. Toyota Prius fuel economy race track competition (video)
From AutoBlogGreen: the popular UK auto program Top Gear came to an interesting conclusion. Thrashing a Prius around a track vs. idling a BMW M3 behind it, demonstrated the obvious.



Possibly the most redeeming statement by Clarkson, in the cause of saving fuel: "It doesn't matter what you drive, it's how you drive it".
