50 mpg is not all that much better environmentally speaking.
I hope they will be bio fuel ready as well.
I mean figure that the number of cars will increase during the period that these hybrids are rolled out. That means for each gas guzzler you take off the road you will be putting in 1.5 hybrids. Eventually you will be consuming as much or mure fossil fuels. Now the hybrids are better but the ultimate answer is to move toward alternative fuels. I.E. farm based products.
Public transport is not the answer either unless you keep the vehicles fully packed. Down here our public transport is 3 times less efficient that single occupancy 24mpg car over the course of a day. Mag lev trains are not terribly good even when running close to capacity as of current technology.
