For comparison, 2011 models:

Cty/Hwy MPGe : Vehicle
106/92 : Nissan LEAF
95/90 : Chevy Volt
94/79 : Smart fourtwo

Cty/Hwy kWh/100mi : Vehicle
32/37 : Nissan LEAF
36/37 : Chevy Volt
36/43 : Smart fourtwo


The Mitsubishi is impressively efficient, especially in the city. The light weight and small frontal area must help a lot. Can someone post Tesla Roadster numbers? I'm sure someone has them handy.

Tesla Roadster numbers:

124/112 City/Hwy MPGe.

So the Mitsubishi just beats it in the city. But the Roadster still wins on the highway, and in the combined number.

Converting to a chart:

 

[VolkerP]

since mpg is kind of a length unit, have the bars in the chart run from left to right. And add an indicator on top that "to the right" is better.

Demanding crowd. :smile: OK:

And stop waving your mouse cursor over the image when you screen capture it. You get those damned text bubbles over top. :tongue:

Man, reading this forum keeps getting more and more like talking to my wife. Bubble removed!
