The Detroit News Online's Auto Insider reported that the Corvette Z06's fuel efficiency may rival the Honda Civic Hybrid in an editorial story written last week.

With gas as high as three dollars a gallon Barry Sanders Lions Jersey , American consumers are looking for alternative car makes and models that will guzzle less gas. Some may be looking for less voracious fuel connoisseurs to replace the his and her matching 10 miles-per-gallon Hummers and Lexus SUVs. Others may be considering different cars to lessen the overtaxing of the world's natural resources and pollution of the environment. Most consumers have good intentions, but are unlikely to sacrifice prestige and style for economy and practicality. It's not the American way.

When speaking on the subject of fuel efficient cars, people equate economical value (or perceived value) of the car itself with fuel efficiency. These two subjects are not mutually exclusive.

Consumer Reports magazine revealed a list of compact and subcompact car make and model recommendations for those seeking functionality over flash and performance.

The Top Three Most Fuel Efficient Cars
1. Honda Insight
2. Toyota Prius
3. Honda Civic Hybrid.

As you can see A'Shawn Robinson Lions Jersey , these practical cars do not take into account more higher-end cars with just as efficient fuel intake. What if you could have both fuel efficiency and a classic, stylisth, American body style? John McCormick from the Detroit Auto Insider says you can.

"For some years this icon of American sports cars
[Corvette Z06] has actually been a closet fuel miser Jalen Reeves-Maybin Lions Jersey , but few people have recognized the fact. I just drove a brand new Z06, the current king of the hill 'Vette, with a tire-shredding 500 horsepower on tap Teez Tabor Lions Jersey , and managed an impressive trip average of 23.4 mpg...a fast car is not automatically a gas hog. To underscore the point, I took a similar journey in a minivan and found myself consuming just over 20 mpg," said John McCormick from Detroit's Auto Insider.

Why is a Z06 a good buy when it comes to gas?

It's science at work here. Weight and aerodynamic drag are two primary enemies of fuel efficiency Graham Glasgow Lions Jersey , which explains why heavy, blunt-faced, traditional sport utility vehicles and minivans generally suck down fuel and the sleek Michael Roberts Lions Jersey , relatively light-weight Z06 burns conservatively.

So if you are the 40 something or 50 something baby boomer accused of buying a Corvette because of a mid-life crisis, you can retort by pointing out your Corvette gets more miles-to-the-gallon than your buddy's Land Rover or minivan. This also works well as justified logic for your wife. You're welcome.



RIGA， Dec. 2 (Xinhua) -- Latvian President Raimonds Vejonis on Friday returned to parliament the legislative amendments that would have phased out the reduced microenterprise tax， which is charged on small businesses， by 2019.


As he sent the amendments to the law on microenterprise tax back to lawmakers for revision， the president said that a new regulation that would make doing business for small and lifestyle enterprises easier had to be provided， before abolishing the existing microenterprise tax.


Earlier in the day， the government had reached an agreement with the Latvian Chamber of Commerce and Industry on the bill's postponement.


"The president believes that the proposed regulation is flawed and contradicts earlier promises，" Vejonis' representative Janis Siksnis said， noting that in September 2015， the government committed to working out a new support mechanism for Latvia's small enterprises.


The new mechanism， which still has not been provided， was supposed to replace the current microenterprise tax.


"Since such a regulation has not been developed and approved， the president believes that it would not be right to abolish the existing support system for microenterprises，" Siksnis said.


After the meeting with representatives of the Latvian Chamber of Commerce and Industry， Prime Minister Maris Kucinskis told reporters that drawing up new proposals on how to tax microenterprises would take at least three months.
