I think you're missing the point. I don't particularly want to slow down (not that I'm one of the world's fastest drivers, at least on freeways & other boring straight roads), I want a car that gets 100 mpg (or better, or equivalent KWh/mile) when I drive it at whatever speed I happen to want to drive. Sure, we could all drive something like Neil Young's Linc-Volt at 30 mph. or we could use the same amount of energy to drive a Tesla at 80 or so, and have a lot more fun.
