Exactly, that’s their ALONE argument to be able to sell cars which run at 250Km / h.
From this point of view there, it would be logical to give a consumption in a transparent way: indeed, if they sell such cars because on German highways it is authorized, whereas they give the consumption that they will make on these same roads.
And frankly Bucheron, do you find normal that the "normal" consumption does not represent the normal conditions of use of the vehicle I understand and share your point of view, but I find the current situation leaves a certain paradox in relief. (When I say relief, I rather think of a mountain.)

This is indeed what they answer. That said, it is by chance these highways that do not give never of figures on the number of dead and wounded. They are the only ones in Europe.
According to a report that I had seen, each country is supposed to be totally transparent vis-à-vis the European community and must therefore give all its road safety figures. Only Germany is lacking by not giving figures about these famous highways. It seems there is some pressure from ??? (in your opinion) so that these figures are not disclosed, otherwise ??? There would no longer be any reason to manufacture non-restrained cars in Europe at 130Km / h, but all cars run at speed> 130Km ...
