Diesels at number 4. When better diesels arrive, they might go even higher on the list.

In Europe, they have diesel A6s, 5-series or E-Classes that can almost reach or exceed 40 mpg!

The Europeans also have a lot of smaller, more efficient diesels, but they'd never sell here because most Americans have been brainwashed into thinking that cars have to be fast and achieve sub 6 second 0-60 times. :(
