Re: Motive Mag: X-Philes: GM Pulls 37 MPG Out of it's Hat.

Odd thing is that among the cars that Motivemagazine discussed, I probably would have considered neither of the other two. The Hyundai just looks wrong, the Focus coupe isn't really my cup of tea, either. While the G5 or Cobalt may not have the greatest interior in the world, it's actually not bad. I'd lose little in the way of technology by owning one. What they don't discuss is that it's relatively easy to get that sort of mpg out of this car. I tried out the Cobalt XFE, and got over 35 mpg with little or no effort.
