    Really impressive. It's diesel and gets 55 mpg UK... around 45 US. Too bad we'll never see it over here :(
    Sorry... the link is dead and the vid seems to have been taken down.

    55mpg UK?

    Yeah. It's loaded too with sat nav, panoramic roof, Honda's "Magic Seat" which allows the rear seat to fold up, and an even cooler dashboard than the sedan/coupe here.

    Yeah, UK MPG. I googled a conversion and I believe you multiply it by 0.833 = 45.8 MPG.

    2.2 litre diesel? Not bad and definitely more powerful and efficient than ours. It's a 5-dr with hidden rear door handles à la Alfa Romeo. I hope they bring it over. It'll compete with the Mazda3 and possibly a new Corolla Hatchback or the new Matrix.
