funny story about a BMW 520d beating the prius comfortably for real worls MPG with only stop start technology (the engine switches off when you stop at the lights) and regenerative braking to charge the battery (rather than an alternator).
I think the low kerb weight of the Datsun will help too (as has been pointed out!) the prius weighs half a ton more than a standard 1200 after all!
