The VW XL1 is as you say, but it doesn't use a gas vapor Pogue carburetor. The real reasons for not selling in the US are given in Snopes:http://www.snopes.com/politics/conspiracy/xl1.asp"Volkswagen is only producing 200 units for retail sale, all of them to be sold in Europe via some sort of selection (i.e., lottery) process.""If Volkswagen wants to test-market their XL1 in limited quantities, there's no reason for them to expend millions of dollars preparing and certifying those vehicles for U.S. safety standards when they can vend their small lot of cars just as well in the European market without all the added expense."Maybe someday it will hit the US market if there is a demand.
