Highest fuel millage cars?

Question

list the cars with the best millage

Answer 1

My '96 Geo Metro, which isn't a hybrid, gets around 45-48 miles per gallon most of the time.  Sometimes it gets down into the 30's, but that's in winter.  I got 51 mpg on a tank of gas a few years back.  My gas mileage isn't quite what it used to be, so I'll probably have to tear down the engine and rebuild it; it's got about 160,000 miles on it now.

Answer 2

My motorcycle gets 55 MPG.

Answer 3

Well Hybrids tend to have the highest.  Toyota Prius and Honda Civic Hybrid being two of the best.

If you can't afford a hybrid there are other cars to consider.  The new Smart Car gets really good mileage, but it only seats two.

For regular cars, try Toyota Yaris or Honda Fit.

Answer 4

Actually I read an article about how the original Honda Accord would come stock getting up into the 40+ mpg range.  This is of course due to low weight as there wasn't so many safety features required back then which puts a lot of weight on todays cars.  In the article it stated there was a Weber carb kit for that Accord that would push it up to 80mpg.  True?  I didn't look any farther into it.  But that's what it said.

Answer 5

Prius is the clear winner.

but missing from the list is:

2008 Nissan Altima Hybrid  2.5L I4 158HP  35 / 33 mpg

which leases the technology from toyota.

Answer 6

My sister gets 50mpg in her diesel Beetle.
