Enter the Newt. The Newt is a family-friendly commuter hatchback introduced in 1975 and released in 1976 by unknown motor company Newt Motors. In the front of the car, a 1976 Newt Motors CARBi4 NMH1 1.4 liter inline 4 engine powers the car. While only costing 1,500 USD it is a perfect option to get the family around town, whether it's to school, the grocery store, and other places with a top speed of 91 miles per hour and it's totally about the fuel economy here.
