The link to the site also has the least efficient. Here are the most fuel efficient.
Lucky you. Must’ve been interesting. How many Duesenbergs does he have?
I was sitting in a late 50s Mercedes 300SL gullwing at a car show in B.H. around 15 years ago and someone opened the passenger door and sat down next to me. I look over — it was Leno. We talked for a minute or two about the car and then went on our way.
You ever read Leno’s bi-monthly column in Popular Mechanics? ...”Leno’s Garage.” Good reading.
The Miata might get good mileage but it’s a chick car.
Is the Prius supposed to have higher city than highway gas mileage?
I’m getting 32 mpg in my ‘87, 16 valve, 123hp VW GTI. Catch me - if you can!
That is just a list of MPG, not efficiency.
Efficiency would be stated in pound-miles/gallon, at specified speeds.
OTOH, the extra poundage can add a lot to passenger safety.
It’s easy to find out what the most fuel inefficient cars are. Just look for the ones that liberals ride to their “Save the Earth” functions.
I can usually get 29-30MPG on my 2006 Mazda MX-5 on the hwy...plus, it is an extremely fun little car!
I get 33 mpg around town in my 2005 Scion xb 38 on the highway. I wonder why Scion isn’t on this list.
Thanks but no need... it was a South Park episode. Everyone in South Park had started to get Prius’s and got more scared when a cloud of SMUG was seen coming there from San Francisco.
Great episode.
I have a 2006 Mustang GT convertible. I have no idea what kind of mileage it gets and I don’t care. :)
How’s it goin’ dfu?
A dinosaur.
The Toyota Camry has a 33/34 rating, and should have been first in some class.
You must not own one.
A Pious ? Nope. I believe in laws of thermodynamics, not the Global Warming religeon. However, a few ‘left of center’ friends of mine have them, and I have ridden in one. It’s a golf cart. Pretty much.
Hence, the ‘Pious’. I found that a profound observation.
Only the penetent man shall pass (into the Global Warming nirvana).
“I think I’ll keep my real car if that’s what it means to save a couple MPG. It’s so much fun blowing those ugly things off the road with some V8 American horsepower.”
Right on. The longer you’re on the road, the more gas you burn. Get there quick w/V8 power and help save the planet.
“I have a 2006 Mustang GT convertible. I have no idea what kind of mileage it gets and I don’t care. :)”
Nice. I have a modded ‘04 Cobra w/465 RWHP and get 22 mpg... (on cruse control.)
I notice they left off the turbodiesel jetta, beetle and passat, which get close to 50 real MPG’s. I guess they just don’t like diesels.
