All of these so called advances are simply coverups for the real problem. The public wants high powered cars to feed their massive egos. The public cant except high gas prices are destroying our budgets, personal and government. Consumption of fossil fuels may be destroying our environment through global warming and just plain smog.

What we need are cars that are cheap and fuel efficient. Cars that are built for the average use which is a single occupant driving less than 10 miles per trip.

Turbos are expensive and cause mechanical problems that are $$$$ to fix. They only work if the engine is run for hours at a time at optimized speeds. But the average use is a fraction of an hour at non optimum speed ie in traffic.

A lot of problems would be solved if everyone drove a Yaris instead of BMW etc
