When you talk about the world coming to an end, all your talking about is humans coming to an end. No amount of pollutions gonna change that. Commodore- The rates you most likely read are falsely leading. There may be a car for every 93 people in America, but consider most people own more than one car. Really though, rethink the rest of your comment. Deanster- Most of China does ride on bikes, and so does India. Rickshaw carts are pretty popular too, which is what this Tata is going to be replacing. Get Real- You think Al Gore should "Get Real" about that 12 cylinder Mercedes he rides around in, in "An Inconvenient Truth"? Cm90si- I'd go for a diesel car, if someone produced one that fits my needs (I'd think about a Volkswagen station wagon, but it's a little out of my price range). I would buy a Jeep Liberty, but I'm not really into SUV's either. Prius is nice, but it's just hype. No matter what you guys think, the earth will live without humans.

No need to waste all these resources on cars if you live in a congested city with good weather. We need to bicycle and walk more.

There are prototype engines out there that run on anything from electricity to water and air producing zero emissions. If only one of the corporations could pick up on a fresh and clean idea and invest into its development instead of crying about declining sales numbers...but wait, it's all about oil and money these days.

It will eventually get so expensive that many of these emerging markets/3rd world countries who are now buying cars will stop as they won't be able to afford the gas to run them anymore. This won't happen though until gas gets to about $10 a gallon, which will likely happen by 2012. Watch. What this means is oil prices will continue to go up and up and up.

The only thing going for these 3rd world countries is that they walk alot and eat fibre rich food. Now they can drive, pollute, eat junk food too. Watch the rate of diabetes, obesity and stupidity rise in all these countries as a result of this. I think the world is getting dirtier. Glad I don’t live there.
