That's why PSA Hybrid Air looks so promising for small cars. Emerging markets would love it too.

Audi introducing new “ultra” A4, A5, A6 models; diesels with up to 60 mpg
Audi is expanding its “ultra” strategy with 11 new models: especially efficient diesel engine versions in the A4, A5 and A6 model lines will be launched in Europe in early 2014. A new 2.0-liter TDI will provide the drive at 100 kW (136 hp), 120 kW (163 hp) or 140 kW (190 hp); the engine emits j...

No more details. Anyone?

New more powerful Golf R is up to 18% more fuel efficient
New Volkswagen Golf R. Click to enlarge. Volkswagen has introduced the new Golf R, the flagship of the model series. Powered by a newly designed 296-horsepower (221 kW) TSI engine which is 30 hp stronger than the engine in the previous model, the new Golf R is up to 18% more fuel efficient ...
With all those promised connected cars, we'll have a good tool to measure precisely what an efficient car is and what is an efficient car driver is.
I don't expect car companies to allow benchmarks as proposed by HarveyD, with regrets though.
Meanwhile reality versus mpg tags will diverge more and more.

« En clair, l’avis des Etats membres ne sert plus à rien : l’arbitraire de la Commission est total. »

La maladie orpheline, le médicament miracle et l’eurocrate, l'article
La Commission européenne serait-elle plus préoccupée par la promotion des intérêts d’une entreprise pharmaceutique américaine que d’assurer la survie de quelques dizaines de malades atteints d’une grave et rare maladie génétique du foie ? Depuis trois ans, elle s’oppose bec et ongles à l’autor...

A noise limitation would be welcome too! In narrow streets these devils scorch your ears before stuffing your lungs with fumes of pollution and particles.
By the way this is incredible that they don't respect some basic emissions standards. Where were the regulation during all this time?

European Parliament, Council provisionally agree on new safety, emissions rules for L-category vehicles in EU
Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) and European Council negotiators provisionally agreed to new rules for increased safety and decreased emissions from all L-category vehicles in the EU—i.e., about 30 million mopeds, scooters, motorbikes, all-terrain vehicles and quads. As these vehicl...
J'en conclus que vous n'acceptez pas la critique aussi modeste soit-elle.
C'est malheureux mais vous êtes bien aveugle et autoritaire.
Un peu comme l'UE parfois ?

What exactly is a high-voltage battery? And overall what advantage this system brings so that Audi is more focused on the HV system than the battery production itself?
