alan mulally told me we can make this, we can hit 54 miles per gallon by 2025. it's going to take a tremendous shift though in what people expect from their vehicles. we've already, again, the evolution has been happening. the v-8 engine is almost extinct now. you see in some high-performance cars, but very few mass-market models. the four-cylinder engine is now the most popular engine for cars sold in the country. which when you think about it, a huge change. the technology though that the companies have pursued with turbocharging and direct injection at a lot of things i'm probably not technically capable of explaining have made these cars just as fun to drive and reliable as the larger displacement engines of figures past that were getting 12 or 15 miles a gallon. now we are getting returning 25-30 miles per gallon uzbek and the force on engines is a different. ford and general motors spent on their own about four times what apple spent on research and development every single year. so what the four-cylinder engine can deliver today is significantly different
