Compare yours to it's EPA or EPA to EPA scores not yours to another car's EPA score. If you get above EPA MPG in your cars than the MPG will be better on the more efficient car.

The CR-Z is a hybrid. 0-60mph in 9 seconds is plenty fast enough.




Seriously if americans had half the diesel powered cars that europe has, we wouldnt need these bullshit hybrids to get maybe 40 MPG
