Day-by-Day Review: 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8GT; Day 3
So the Genesis Coupe isn't the most practical sports car around, says James, but what really matters here is how the car drives. And it's in that department that this car really shines, he says.

...
Why do they even have "hybrid-only" parking spaces?  A Yaris or Fit or even a GTI is more fuel-efficient than an RX-h, GS-h, or LS-h...

I can't wait for the first guy to cram his new Tahoe Hybrid into one of those spaces.

Regarding Ikea's Hybrid Parking spots;

"IKEA Canada welcomes all drivers of hybrid cars and fuel efficient
vehicles recognized by the recent Federal government's tax relief incentive
(cars that use less than 6.5L of gas per 100km) to take advantage of IKEA's
Green Parking spaces."

I believe the Smart qualifies.

I got to sit in one of these and was pretty blown away by the amount of interior space that was wrapped in such a tiny exterior package.  Interior quality and design were very good as well.

Too bad if we don't have an option to buy it here in Canada. After seeing another small and cute car on Amazing Race 2 yrs ago (it was Nissan Micra), I've contacted Nissan to ask if they will be ever planning to sell it in Canada. They've said that there was no market for such small vehicles in Canada and offered me to take a look at Versa (definitely not small to me) or request to import it thru local dealers. Well, I am going to wait, hopefully the market will change.

Well, they should change the signs to represent the Fed's EcoAuto program.

I do enjoy and take advantage of Ikea's "family" parking spots, being a father of 3.
