When do you think we will see the first true 100 mile per gallon car on the world market?

Question:
(The 2009 Toyota Prius is supposed to get 80 mpg from what I hear).

Answers:

Do you think tinted windows make it easier for crooks to spot out your car?

There have been several concept cars out there that will do that - it's just that these cars use technologies that have been prohibitively expensive. There's no conspiracy out there to cover up some miracle zillion mpg carburetor (have you ever wondered why there's so few rumors about a fuel injector that can pull off the same mileage, even though EFI cars get much better mileage?) If there was a way to make a car get 100 mpg that had no real trade-offs and only added a few hundred, no Arab sheik could afford a bribe big enough to compare to the profits a car company could rake in by selling such a thing.

How many versions of the permit tests are there??


The pieces out there already exist - ultra-light materials, direct injected diesel engines, hybrid drivetrains, etc. The trouble is bringing down the price of all the necessary technology to the point that it's commercially viable. Nobody's going to spend $200,000 on a car just to double its mileage. My prediction? Expect it to take about 20 years. However, this may not happen if battery technology improves to the point that electric cars become practical. If that happens, we can expect to hear rumors of how the electrical power industry conspiracy killed the technology to build a 200 mpg car.

How much do cars pollute? and do they pollute more than 300000 lbs?

When we stop using internal combustion motors. Fuel is every ineffecent. you only use 60 % of it as energy the rest is heat and waste. Now you can get more miles buy turning the engine off and allowing another source to drive the car but what it boils down to is if the motor ran as often as a normal car would run you MPG would still be around 30 MPG.

What does the driving test consist of?

I watched a program on the Discovery channel or the Learniing channel... forget which but basically they said that we have the technology to build cars that will last a million miles and get 100 mpg. The costs of course are more, but they aren't THAT much more. The problem is that if they actually built those cars, it would put soooo many people out of work. Mechanics, smog shops, gas stations, etc. would all be hurting.
