    Greenpeace modified a Renault Twingo with off-the-shelf parts in 1996 so it could get 68mpg.

    The display say 17.624 gallons. That is a full size SUV or truck.

      Not necessarily. My 4-door sedan holds 18 gallons. It’s 12 years old now. Maybe they’re making them smaller now.

      Just saying its less than what I paid for what I would consider to be a “standard”-ish vehicle?

      I don’t think a rav4 stands out as an interesting vehicle.
