Paul Elio also mentioned that their low coast and high mileage vehicle will make people reconsider their approach towards transportation in the U.S. When we think of purchasing a vehicle, our basic premise is that it should be able to accommodate our family. However, when we are commuting to work on a daily basis, even the biggest cars have at maximum two people inside it: you and your driver. So why not choose a vehicle that is reasonably priced, easy on your budget and offers great fuel efficiency.
