People often say that Detroit (and Windsor) can’t or won’t make fuel-efficient small cars. One writer said that, at 25 miles per gallon, Ford original Model-T was more fuel efficient than most of its fleet today.
Yet, when I look around the streets of London, there are hundreds of small, efficient cars like the Ka and the Fiesta (from Ford) and various Vauxhalls (the local...
