Yes, this is one of the most fuel efficient autos in Europe --the Audi A2 (1.2liter). American auto makers must take heed or risk being run out of business for this "78 mpg diesel" have been around for quite some time now. And just think GM/Ford are just now retooling their factories--what a joke! And worse yet, the greedy bastards are asking Congress for help (50 Billion). Want proof---click here

A little bit unsafe for the road.

A little bit unsafe

In a land that has no speed limits (the Autobahn) it is without a doubt more than reasonable not to expect a driver side mirror being held together with tape. With that written, I wonder what their excuse would be as she/he are cruising down the road and the damn thing flies off and lands unto someone else’s windshield?

Sanyo, VW to develop batteries for hybrids

Lithium-ion strategy comes as VW works on diesel-electric Golf

updated 3:10 p.m. ET May 28, 2008

TOKYO - Sanyo and Germany's Volkswagen AG will develop lithium-ion batteries for hybrid vehicles as global automakers race to develop more environmentally friendly technology.

I have a good feeling that this agreement between these two giants will revolutionize the hybrid market. VW has their amazing TDI engine and Sanyo has developed the Eneloop battery in the recent past. With these products in mind, I am convinced, hook, line and sinker.

Baby Benz

My baby Benz has served its purpose very well. It gets me to work 25km and back home 25km Monday thru Friday with comfort and ease. I just washed it even though the picture doesn't show the details. Nevertheless, I am still happy with my baby. Are you satisfied with yours?
