They have a European model called Mini One that has a smaller engine, that does get more than 50 mpg. For some reason, they aren't offering it here in the States. There seems to be a market for them now, to maybe they'll bring them over soon. While it would be nice, I am hoping that they don't. 2 of them in the garage is more than enough.
Nice on the Cherokee getting 28. Our truck is a hybrid and we don't get much more than that.
