 Audi A2
The A2 represents something of a watershed in the history of Audi, in that it is a smaller vehicle, a category previously overlooked by the prestigious motor manufacturers.

Along with an innovatively lowered rear floor, the A2 offers a level of comfort not usually enjoyed by backseat passengers.

 Public Citizen Fuel Economy (CAFE) - Corporate Average Fuel Economy
In the absence of meaningful fuel economy standards, automakers have also been free to use gains in engine efficiency to increase the size and weight of the heaviest, largest vehicles, with devastating consequences for the safety of occupants and others on the road.
Under the Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) program, manufacturers’ fleetwide fuel economy averages for cars and light trucks are measured against a federal fuel economy standard for each category of vehicles.
The fuel economy of the U.S. vehicle fleet peaked in 1988 and has been swiftly declining ever since, due to in large measure to the billions of dollars spent by the auto industry over the past decade in marketing SUVs.
