Yet more news from the country that produces the most efficient diesel engines in the World, France. This time Peugeot managed an astonishing 141.2 MPG (about 114 US MPG) over an epic 1337.19 miles of constant driving. What's even more remarkable is that this was a standard production model, not mods, overinflated tyres or stripping of any parts. It was driven on a track however, so no traffic lights or traffic to slow or stop for. Would be interesting to see what the average speed was.
