The article says that the new Mazda could get 40 kilometers per liter, which, by my conversion equals 94 mpg(US). And, the article states that the Aqua gets 37 kilometers per liter which is similar to the Prius C that gets 50 mpg(US). Someone tell me what I am getting wrong here. I convert 37 kilometers per liter as 87 mpg(US), and I convert 50 mpg(US) as only 21 kilometers per liter. So, by my calculation, if the increase is from 21 to 40 kilometers per liter, then, this is a huge 90% improvement - instead of the small 8% improvement given in the article. And if correct, would completely change the main premise of the article that the improvement percentage is too small to justify interest in the US.
