To see on this video is a comparison between a V10 gasoline iron and a V8 gas shoebox

Note the very American atmosphere of the "report", a big guy grumbling confidently his text with the Texan accent, big cars decorated with chrome, huge highways, and very emphatic movie music (Superman!) ...

Yeah! On Thursday, one of my clients brought her new Mercedes Vito brand new van from the garage: it looks like she's making 6,5 liters at 100.
He was happy, his old Ford Transit was 17!
