As American industries finally catch up in some respect to the world, their cars meet good numbers, but it isn't nearly what was expected. They could, however, get a high mpg under certain circumstances.
About two months before two new plug-in cars go on sale in the United States, the federal government is struggling with how to rate the fuel economy of mass-market plug-in vehicles.
GM was going to produce over 200 mpg electric cars. The cars came out a lot lower. The numbers are still good, and the cars are still good; they are just not quite as futuristic as we thought. America is finally going green in some ways. We haven't done anything really dramatic yet, but we are thinking foward and starting to show progress. These cars are making up for what America should have been doing. Hopefully we can keep up the production on green technology. For the consumer, the cars are confusing. The way they are made allows them to travel without gas for a while. After that they drop to a reasonable mpg. Making a generalized statement about a cars mpg will be more difficult now. Where someone lives will play a role, depending on who supplies energy.
