Take a look at the Honda Civic Hybrid. I get over 50 MPG in mixed
city/hwy driving. I just did an 1100 mile round trip to a conference,
with 600+ Lbs of junk in the car (plus me) and going 70 MPH on the highway
in beastly heat, I got 46 MPG. If I ran a bit slower with less weight,
I'd get 49 or so. The HCH is a LOT cheaper than the Volt.

And, I don't have to subsidize it!
