Gee, the BMW Isetta holds a gallon more gasoline than my electric BMW i3 REx. That peculiar amount was limited by the California Air Resources Board--that I curse every time I refill it (twice since July).

I wonder what the range is of an Isetta with a full tank compared to a REx? I think the official MPG when the REx is running is 34.....

I thought it was 40mpg.
