According to a CNN report the list of top-selling cars indicates that consumers are buying more fuel-efficient vehicles than most people expected.
Under the plan as enacted, vehicles purchased after July 1 are eligible for refund vouchers worth $3,500 to $4,500 on traded-in gas guzzlers. The trade-in vehicle has to get a combined city and highway fuel economy rating of 18 miles per gallon or less.
