Are We Small Crossover Crazy?

While there is a certain value to crossovers becoming smaller the question is whether or not we’ve gone too far? The benefits to a smaller crossover SUV are many, you can park them easier, drive them easier, have the added space you need but not feel like the vehicle is overgrown and you can enjoy reasonable fuel mileage from these small and active vehicles.

Even though the fuel mileage takes a hit when using biofuels a vehicle doesn’t emit any carbon elements at all because these are handled when the plants are grown. This has been the assumption of experts and researchers for many years, but it might be time to change the tone of the discussion and find out exactly how safe these fuels are for the environment. A recent study that was released by the University of Michigan shows this way of thinking is simply an assumption of what these fuels are and how they perform. (more…)
