Let’s face it folks, over time, the price of gas will rise. That much is certain. If you have a massive commute or you just drive everywhere all the time, you will want to save money on fuel. Hybrids are popular and the most efficient, but they have a higher sticker price than some regular fuel efficient cars like the Toyota Yaris and Honda Fit. Driving a fuel efficient car can shave hundreds off of your annual fuel costs, increase your mpg, AND be friendly to the environment. Trust me, your wallet and Mother Nature will thank you!

All vehicles are tested in the same way so you can compare the results when choosing a vehicle type or class. The mpg ratings appear on window stickers on all new cars and light trucks prior to sale.
