Why North America is messing around with these stupid Hybrid cars that get 44-50mph is just beyond me.

In Europe they have a lot of 1.0L Diesel cars that are quite small, take the VW Polo Diesel for instance. It gets 88mpg and diesel is cheaper than gasoline is plus no stupid batteries. Why can't we get that here?

Just on a side note, cant you just buy some hybrid stickers for the Boxster and put some batteries in the trunk or something? HOV lane approved!
