The state of Michigan filed a lawsuit in federal court last week against major oil companies including ExxonMobil and Chevron, accusing them of engaging in a decades-long conspiracy to block the development of clean energy and electric vehicles.
It’s true, such cars were not fabled, but rare and never advertised as they would have deserved. I once drove a 1980s Diesel Opel station wagon a few hundred kilometers to haul some stuff, mostly on the motorway, mostly very conservative driving, and it used 3 liters / 100km.
I had a 1-liter, 3-cylinder car in the 90s. No fable, but people wanted bigger cars that cost more to operate.
How much fuel did it consume on 100km?
