Fuel Efficient Automobiles

What will become the best alternative for fuel conservation: biodiesel, fuel cell, electric or the aircar? While the options are growing—and unless you dust off your Schwinn — we have selected what we consider to be the best fuel efficient automobiles on the market. We are talking about vehicles that don't lose the fun, sporty, practical or luxury aspects that make them attractive overall; these are cars you can live with. They may not be the ultimate fuel savers, but they comprise all the categories you’d look for in their class.
