I'm disappointed in the hybrids. The 1988 Honda CRX HF got 50mpg with a regular 4 cylinder engine. I would have hoped that exotic electric/gas hybrid engine technology would produce numbers far higher than that. The best we've gotten so far has been the Insight, and that sold about as well as the Edsel, and lost Honda money on every sale they made. The commercial success, the Prius, gets less mpg than the CRX did, which is rather silly.
And I do not understand the fixation with hybridizing SUV's. So you go from 19 to 23mpg. So what? It's still a gas guzzler.
