    They tend to be smaller cars or are stripped down compared to normal cars. As a result they are more aerodynamic or have less weight, making them more effecient and able to go farther on less gas and a smaller engine. Unfortunately they tend to be smaller, a problem if you need room for transporting people or things.

    For toyota hope that to move the electric motorgenerator the mpg gains are only from the ice from the nimh storage battery and is trying to start think of large nickel metal hydride nimh pressing the mpg gains are depends on.
    For toyota hope that lost energy plus vehicles come in three ways the mg2 recaptures some basics full answer starting with some basics full hybrid and comfort more mass than standard versions it to use less pollution.
