I often wonder how efficient and inexpensive cars could be if you removed ALL regulations and just built what a consumer wanted. Emissions may matter in the LA valley with millions of cars in what amounts to an enclosed space but the lonely cars traveling the interstates of Montana would better serve the planet by using as little fuel as possible. That and heavy, complicated, expensive safety features should be a personal choice like wearing a helmet. Strip all that, delete all emissions that don't add to efficiency, and lean those cars out. I bet they could make under $10,000 cars that get over 50 mpg.
