Replying to: elroy5 (Jan 10, 2009 6:43 am) Technically, the Elantra and Prius (along with the Spectra) are the smallest cars in the EPA's mid-sized or "family car" class. And guess what? They (Prius and Elantra) get the highest fuel economy in the class (well, Prius for sure for hybrids and Elantra for non-hybrids in the city and maybe overall). No big surprise there--they are considerably smaller, lighter, and lower-powered than the rest of the class. Which makes the EPA results on the 2010 Fulan even more impressive.

Replying to: backy (Jan 10, 2009 10:59 am) The Fusion/Milan being undersized is not the point. The point is, it is smaller, so it should get better mileage than an Accord or 6. If you are giving up interior space, shouldn't you be rewarded, with better mileage? |

Replying to: backy (Jan 10, 2009 4:50 pm) It's kind of illustrative of the problems the Detroit 3 face. They've made junk for so long, and have left such a bad taste in the mouths of so many customers, many DO refuse to give them credit for anything. |

Replying to: backy (Jan 10, 2009 4:50 pm)  Not a big advantage, IMO. But then I chose a V6 model, so gas mileage is not a top priority of mine.

Replying to: elroy5 (Jan 10, 2009 6:30 pm) there is enough head room and plenty leg room for me. another feature i was looking for was awd and i was willing to give up some mpg to get it. |
