Question

What non-hybrid car gets the best gas mileage?

Answer 1

The new 2009 Volkswagen Jetta TDI. It's a clean emitting diesel, and get's upwards of 60 miles per gallon. It also lasts WAYYY longer the hybrids since there's no need for replacement of expensive batteries or any of that nonsense.  

Check out VW's website for the latest information.

Answer 2

I drive a 92 toyota corolla that i paid 800 bucks for and it gets 38 mpg.

Answer 3

Hi there!

I would recommend the Toyota Corolla for its superb mileage while running a conventional non-hybrid engine. Believe it or not, it actually gets slightly better mileage then the smaller Toyota offering, the "Yaris". Be careful though, because the good mileage comes only on one of the two engines offered on the Toyota Corolla. The one you want is the 1.8-liter 4-cylinder engine, as opposed to the 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine.

Good Luck!

The Lamborghini Gallardo or Murcielago is really good on gas, as is the Rolls Royce Phantom or Mercedes CL65. They're real good.

Answer 7

To the guy above that said Jetta gets 60MPH.

The 2009 VW Jetta TDI has been rated at 30/41 city/highway mpg.  It has a 2.0-liter diesel engine and a six-speed manual transmission. The 2009 VW Jetta TDI diesel with the DSG transmission gets 29/40 city/highway mpg.

Diesel seem to be about 20% more expensive than gas, so from a cost comparison you would have to knock it down.  HOWEVER, I have also read that the engine could be easily converted to burn bio- fuels.

Since the car won't be out until August, I'm not sure you can count it...

Answer 8

Smart CAR.  It gets in the 40 MPG's, but as I found out there is at least a 6 month waiting list.
