prius's real numbers?
i remain very skeptical about Prius's real world numbers, ie, depending on terrain etc.
Several friends who've pushed their Prius' acceleration (which at least in an 2004 model was amazingly zippy), got terrible mileage.
OTOH, most toyotas do better than stated.. so ..by now they might be quite efficient.
Was just looking at safe and cheap cars for a teen driver and noticed the 2002 Passat has Drag Co. of .27, and final MPG of 30.15 in the 1.8 engine.
Will now look at new Beetle's numbers.
Sorry for the diversion.
(incidentally, a saab is too powerful for a teen, or i'd get an 2005 9-3.
