Or as side by side dealerships.
I side with William in that what you get ain't a whole lot.
My parents 04 Passat TDI gets 65mpg imperial without any special effort,
combined city and highway. There is room for people and stuff, monster
trunk, etc.
Therre was a group that drove them across Canada when they were first
out- they topped out at 80mpg in the prairies, and not quite half that
in the mountains. I might be wrong, since I'm just going from memory...
At least the smart is a clean burning diesel, not some electric hybrid
abortion, or worse yet, an electric car.
Europe was supposed to be getting a smartfor4. Any out in Europe yet?
QM? comments?
