I was certainly under the impression that it was a recent invention and had been suppressed by the gas companies. But an actual fact good old Ford learned the secret of fuel vaporization and high efficiency of using gasoline way back when he was running his model tease! So that means when they started to steer away from the vaporization carburetor that that was definitely a move by gas companies and oil companies to decrease the efficiency of engines which would then make them use more oil. And of course Rockefeller was all about the oil and maximizing the use of oil by everyone. The last thing in the world he wanted was for a car to use less oil and gasoline.
Nonetheless I found this fascinating that this technology was originally invented in 1927. And it just goes to show you that the original geniuses behind the invention of so many of these things who were of course white and European really were masterminds. And they knew stuff then that the average idiot today still doesn't know.
Yes I think I linked to that elsewhere but this preceded that and use engine heat to vaporize the gas literally on the first mass produced cars - model It's!
A lot of cars can easily get 60-70 MPG as is. American/cars sold in America are manufactured and tuned for power and not distance though, because gas is cheap here, society is collectively retarded, and said retards like teh vroomvroom.
I'm not saying you have to get rid of fast cars, but it would be nice to have the option to buy a car that gets good mileage without having to completely rip out the steering.
Ok show me the vehicle that gets good gas mileage (not attached to a wall). It's certainly a possible thing to do. Hypermiling is not my passion, but I love efficiciency. I'll take a look.

If you want to see another mind blowing old car feature the 1906 schacht had a CVT, and It could go full speed in reverse. https://www.planetcarsz.com/assets/uploads/images/VEICULOS/S/SCHACHT/1906_SCHACHT_RUNABOUT//SCHACHT_RUNABOUT_1906_1.jpg

And that gunk is still going through your engine either way.
