I noticed in the video that your tach stays under 1000 rpm @60mph(97kmh), could that be right? That's some tall gears.

Tacho is 2x off so 1000 rpm in the meter is 2000 rpm actual. |

Audi did this 15 or more years ago, albeit on a smaller scale, with the A2 3L model. Driven with care it barely supped 2L per 100km.

It is not that easy, but Vekke did it. See http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...-2l-18235.html
The Lupo is very small, though.
The Audi A8 is as big as it gets if it comes from Germany and still gets named 'car'.
