Toyota, Honda lead fuel-efficiency rankings
Hybrid and economy-class vehicles built by Toyota Motor Corp. and Honda Motor Co. dominate the government’s annual top-10 fuel economy list for 2007 vehicles.The hybrid-electric Toyota Prius led the way with 60 miles per gallon in the city and 51 mpg on the highway, while the Honda Civic Hybrid was second with 49 mpg in the city and 51 mpg on the highway, the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Energy said Tuesday.
Honda and Toyota made seven of the 12 vehicles listed in the top 10. The new Toyota Camry Hybrid made its debut at No. 3, with 40 mpg in the city and 38 mpg on the highway.

Re: Toyota, Honda lead fuel-efficiency rankings
This was the best quote:
The list does not include some of the largest vehicles in the fleet, such as the Hummer H2, because the law does not include vehicles that weigh more than 8,500 pounds under the fuel economy standards.
No Honda Insight
Guess cause there will be no 2007 model.

That is what is wrong with our government.
They can't even figure out where 10 ends and 12 begins.
How do you fit 12 cars into 10 spots?
