42mpg, the Honda Fit, a typical internal combustion engine from Japan, (see picture of the dashboard at night at 60 mph).

- aerodynamic - designed to slice through the wind rather than push ackwardly against it
- lightweight - curb weight Honda Fit is 2600 lbs vs. Range Rover 5400 lbs
- engine tuning - add a good air filter to let the engine breathe
- cruise control - keep it at 65-70 mph on the highway, and never, ever brake
a typical SUV weighs 2X as much as a Honda Fit.
