New CAFE rules affect makers differently - AutoWeek Magazine Bizarro... I hadn't closely followed what the outcome was other than the much touted "35 mpg" standard. Do keep in mind these numbers being thrown around are the stupid CAFE (unadjusted old EPA method dyno numbers). The Prius already gets 65.7778 mpg for CAFE purposes per http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/epadata/08data.zip. (Can you imagine what CAFE numbers the Prius would get if it were flex fuel capable?)
