Still didn't answer the questions of why the arbitrary criteria of 50 MPG @ 70 and not a hybrid.

The first question of vehicle purchase is what is the intended utility of it. From there other factors like reliability, fuel economy, cost to operate get factored in.

A gen I Insight with disabled hybrid system I'm sure would hit those economy figures. Probably most any motorcycle too.
