Comments on: Audi's All-LED Headlamps Could Boost Electric Cars http://gas2.org/2009/01/05/audis-all-led-headlamps-could-boost-electric-cars/ What is the future of fuel? What's new? What's next? Since 2007, Gas 2 has covered a rapidly changing world coming to terms with its oil addiction.

Positive and Comprehensive Thinking might be that crucial, I believe. ‘Going Electric’ is able to save costs and further bring the fuel costs down in the long run, which can cover stimulus investments.

The V10 and expensive lights are just the fancy frills you need to charge $200k for a hunk of iron that costs $25k to build. Yes, thank God for rich people. Are there enough left these days for the car to succeed? We'll see. It’s still inefficient because a V4/6 for vehicle this small would get 50mpg and still go faster than 100.

That V10 is a turbo diesel that gets almost 30mpg on the highway, about the same as a V6 midsize car (Accord, Fusion, Aura).

They're the only ones who can afford new technology, and that helps the rest of us by bootstrapping it till it becomes mainstream affordable. No one in their right mind would pay $5600 for the LED light option to save a few hundred watts of electricity (amounting to ~0.1 mpg by my calculations), but if it's cast as a high-tech "new green thing" that no one else has that might be enough to get it started.
