Comment Re:Horsepower versus traction (Score 1) 483

Engines have improved a lot in the last 40 years but they aren't going to get dramatically better. If you want to realize significant fuel efficiency gains you will have to go to something based on a different technology. Most likely that will be electric motors whether in the form of a hybrid or EV. No general purpose ICE can touch an electric motor for fuel economy at a given horsepower in most circumstances.

People were saying that back in the 90s. Heck, they were saying that in the late 70s.
