Seat Ibiza ECOMOTIVE sets a world fuel-saving record of 2.9 l/100 km

If my math is correct, that is over 80 (US) MPG. Maybe with Fiat's taking over Chrysler we can get some fuel efficient cars in the USA. One US gallon = 3.785 liters. I divided 2.9 by 3.785 & got .766 gallons which I divided into 62 miles to get 80.94 MPG!

I wish we could buy this car in our "so called free country, the USA". I want fuel efficient cars, not those who enrich Big Oil & the Middle East! Maybe if more readers would write our congressmen & senators, we could get such cars as this.

This is NOT the first Spanish super car. Remember the Pegaso? It was made from 1951 to 1958 in very limited numbers. The Standard Catalog of Import autos indicates no more than 125 were built of all the various models. In its day, the Pegaso was considered the fastest production car in the world, 140 to 150 MPH, faster than a Ferrari in its day
Over 140 Ford Fiestas Arrive in U.S.

I have a 2001 Ford Focus ZX3 5 speed & this , at 116,000+ miles, has been the most trouble free car I have ever owned. I am almost 76 years old & have been driving for 50 years. I prefer the handling of European cars & bought the Focus new in 2001, because it was designed in Europe & its out the door price of $11,643 including Calif. tax & lecense. I like its handling & feel it still handles a little better than a new 2009 Focus I test drove. My biggest complaint is its fuel economy STINKS! Only 20 to 24 MPG town & 28 to 30 MPG highway. If Ford wants me to buy a new Fiesta it better offer a diesel option which I understands gets over 50 MPG! Ford, fuel economy is my highest priority! I fear we will see $5 gas & diesel in the near future & will base any new car purchase based on this. Ford, will there be a "New Ford in my Future" or will it be a VW TDI, Honda Insight, or Toyota Prius?

Will we get a diesel version in the USA? If so, it is probably my next new car. Gas only? Forget it! High fuel economy is my HIGHEST priority!
