    If one lives in densely populated california/new york and the like, I would say the 1.0 is an option.

    I guess my question would be how the MPG on the 1.0 is @ 70mph. I was averaging 49-50 yesterday doing 70mph or close to it. The value dropped to 43-44 when I loaded the car up with 4 14" wheels with 185-60-14 tires.

    I would've loved the 1.0 engine as an option ... and proudly badged my Mirage with an "1.0L" emblem

    I can't ever imagine my car having a smaller engine than my bike...

    Depend on how the load of the car is. at 100 km/h of continuous driving it's using probably around 3.8 L/100km. I will test it later as I have to drive at 100 km/h for 25 km
