As for progression cars now have gotten heavier and bigger. It also has to do with emissions, so the focus hasn’t just been about MPG. Not exactly sure but the laws are forcing manufactures to be cleaner not necessarily get more MPG. Hence the push towards zero emissions vehicles aka electric.

Good point, that makes sense. Maybe not 90's, but I'm thinking circa-90's, imports specifically Civics (44/city, 51/hwy) and even that goofy Insight got really good mpg back then, but not much has changed even within those models. But like you said, focus is on emissions vs mpg. You do need like 12 Civics to match up to the size of an X7 though
