With modest fuel tank sizes and so-so economy, most cars sold in the U.S. won't go a great deal further than this. Some of the special diesel models sold in Europe will though, and a model that's certainly capable of such a feat is the Mercedes-Benz E300 Bluetec Hybrid. British publication Autocar has just taken one a full 1,223 miles in one trip, setting off from northern Africa and hitting the U.K. without needing to fill up along the way. No changes were made to the vehicle to allow it to complete...
