Whether you like it or not, the Feds have upped the ante, and unless you are willing to spend a very significant premium for your non-turbo, natural draft, high-power engine, this is where things are moving - hybrids and turbo-charging.
Yeah I had read that in the city it's a great car to have and that it was surprisingly quick off the line.

If you're one of those folks who lives in a major metropolitan area and want a car for driving around town, it's better than driving around in those Smart Cars.
