Planning on getting one, or a Honda Insight (used, of course) for commuting to work. The usual highway mpg on our Honda Odysseys is only 26-28mpg, with 19 routinely in the city. If it is just me driving without the kids, I can do better with a much lighter and smaller car.
I miss my 1986 Honda CRX HF. 48mpg city, 51mpg or better when i kept it to the highway. Sold it with 175,000 miles elapsed, compression on all four cylinders still in the middle of the factory spec for a new engine. Other than regular fluid and spark plug changes, that car never asked for anything. Wish I could buy a car from the "Big Three" that could do that.

My Grand Cherokee Laredo V8 gets 13 MPG city, 17 highway, which is good enough for me. Rather have the power to pass these people in Chicago who don't know how to drive, or are driving a hybrid with no "get up and go"
screw those cars. It bad enough I went from my modded ram to a mazda 3. Atleast it can get out of its own way though.
I'll stick with my Turbo Diesel that gets 51mpg highway, no batteries required. 
AND blow the doors off most of the 'tuner' cars on the street.
