While possibly adequate for some stationary applications and vehicle platforms, they may be too expensive and bulky for many non-stationary applications and may not be able to provide a driving range that meets consumer expectations across the full range of light-duty vehicle platforms. Currently, high-pressure (i.e.,

The EPA rates the 2021 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray fuel economy at 15 city/27 highway/19 combined. So while most owners will not be trying to eke-out every last mile from a drop of fuel, it is possible, when on a long road trip and with an easy right foot, to crack 30 mpg. Your numbers may differ. Road Manners. Very satisfying.
