Pleasant design and compact dimensions create a complete concept that looks extremely appropriate in the conditions of modern megacities. In addition, this vehicle emits the least amount of CO2 into the atmosphere.
Despite the external diminutiveness, this is a real four-seat sedan with a manual transmission. Up to a hundred kilometers Toyota IQ accelerates in 14.7 seconds. On one tank, a car can travel 740 kilometers! No wonder this model tops the Top 5 most fuel efficient minicars.
The most economical car with high ground clearance
For a long time, the Toyota Urban Cruiser has been considered the most fuel-efficient vehicle in terms of fuel consumption among SUVs. The model was released back in 2009 and at that time showed simply amazing results.
The car was equipped with engines of 1.5 and 1.8 liters. But for Europe, a special model with a volume of 1.4 liters was released! At the same time, the power of the car was 90 horsepower. It was this option that became the most economical gasoline SUV. For every hundred kilometers it takes only 5.3 liters, outside the city - 4.

With. additionally.
In fact, the Ford Escape Hybrid has two motors. They can work in turns or in tandem. If the car is moving at speeds up to 40 km / h, only the electric motor works, but as soon as the driver crosses this line, a gasoline device is connected, providing a real explosion of power. The fuel consumption of this monster is from 7 to 7.8 liters per hundred kilometers.

Results
Modern market trends dictate their own rules to car owners. In 2015, having the most economical car is not only financially profitable, but also fashionable. The trend dedicated to the protection of the environment is gaining more and more popularity every year. And economical vehicles have a minimal impact on the environment.
In 2015, only 1.6 million new passenger cars were sold in Russia, according to data from the Association of European Businesses (AEB). And this is not surprising, taking into account the fact that, according to Avtostat, cars have risen in price by 25% on average. Following the prices of cars, the cost of operating vehicles has also increased. In order not to buy a car, which will then eat up a substantial part of the family budget, Sravni.ru determined the most economical cars from among the best-selling ones.
The Hyundai ix35 turned out to be the most profitable in terms of content, while in the list of preferences of Russians it is only on the 23rd line. The cost of annual ownership of this car will cost the driver about 66,917 rubles. Of these, 9.2 thousand rubles will be spent on transport tax, 9 thousand rubles on maintenance, 10.9 thousand rubles on OSAGO, and 37.7 thousand rubles on diesel fuel. It turns out that each kilometer of the ix35 will cost from four rubles. Monthly expenses will amount to 5,576 rubles.
But the most popular in Russia Lada Granta was not included in the top 10. To use this machine, the owner will have to pay for its maintenance after purchase at least 6,525 rubles a month (78,301 rubles a year). Whereas the owner of Hyunda Solaris, who closes the top ten, gets 6,423 rubles each (77,074 per year).
The second most economical car can be called the Chevrolet Niva (the tenth most sold). Car expenses will amount to at least 72,900 rubles per year or 6,075 rubles per month (from 5 rubles per kilometer). Most of the costs are for fuel. If you refuel with AI-92 gasoline, then with a run of 15 thousand km, the owner will have to pay 51.4 thousand rubles at the gas station.
Closes the top three profitable cars Renault Sandero, the cost of it will amount to 72,924 rubles (per month - 6,077 rubles).

The cost of fuel is increasing every month. Despite the fact that this is a penny price increase, drivers who constantly use the car feel these changes. As a result, they have to spend a lot of money on fuel. To make your life easier, you should think about this problem even at the stage of purchasing a car. This is no less important parameter than the safety or performance of the vehicle. As a result, many buyers are faced with the question of which is the most economical car.
The situation in the modern automotive market is promising. Especially if you compare it with the one that was twenty years ago. Cars have impressive abilities, in particular to save fuel. Today, this figure reaches 34 km / l. It depends on various factors and differs for each vehicle model.
Top auto fuel economy leaders in 2019
The rating will help determine which car is economical. It is compiled taking into account not only fuel consumption, but also other parameters that are also important during the operation of the vehicle. This includes power, respectability, and so on. This information is very important for the Russian buyer. Since he is looking not only for the most economical car, but also for the most beautiful one.
Conventionally, two groups of cars are distinguished:
- City runabouts;
- SUVs.
Each of them includes a large number of cars. They differ in manufacturers and other characteristics. To highlight the most economical models, another important technical characteristic was considered - the power reserve. She will tell you how far a vehicle can travel on a fully filled tank. At the same time, it should be taken into account that the fuel consumption of the combined cycle prevails.
As practice shows, the most economical foreign car is equipped with a diesel engine. Unfortunately or fortunately, such a reality is in the modern structure of motors. At the same time, electric vehicles or hybrids were not considered at all. And this is not surprising. After all, the cost of their maintenance is quite low, which allows you to ignore the cost of fuel.
The most economical models include Renault and Peugeot. Many expected to see a Japanese car manufacturer on this list as well. Alas, it did not live up to the user's expectations. Even the smallest cars cannot boast of their low fuel consumption rates. The only one that made the list of economical cars is the Nissan Micra, which consumes less than 6.6 liters per 100 km.
Also in the list you will not find Volkswagen and Audi. These brands are not an economical vehicle option. Therefore, they are not suitable for those who are worried about the contents of their wallet.
City runabouts
The small car is a popular car option. And this is not surprising. It has a small engine and small size. This makes it easy and simple to manage. Especially when it comes to city roads, it will not be difficult to park. In addition, the cost of such a car in Russia is relatively low. This plays a significant role in its choice by the buyer.
This list of cars includes the following brands:
- Peugeot 208 1.6
- Peugeot 308 1.6 BlueHDi
- Lada Kalina
- Citroen C4 1.6 BlueHDi Feel
- Mercedes A-Class (3.8 l/100 km)
- BMW 1 Series (3.8 l/100 km)
Peugeot 208 1.6
The French manufacturer offers an economical version of the car - Peugeot 208 1.6 BlueHDI. It is equipped with an engine that has improved fuel efficiency. The fuel consumption of such a motor is about 40 km / l. The calculation is made for the combined cycle.
In addition, it is worth noting other equally important characteristics of the engine. It belongs to the diesel type, equipped with a start-stop system. Its braking power is 100 hp. Thanks to this, the car offers excellent fuel economy figures.
This model of the vehicle is not only beneficial in maintenance, but also has an attractive appearance. This is a great family hatchback. It is reliable and comfortable. Well suited for those who appreciate the convenience and efficiency of a car that works within the means of an internal combustion engine.
Peugeot 308 1.6 BlueHDi
Economy cars are not limited to small cars. The Peugeot 308 is proof of this. This vehicle has many advantages. One of them is excellent environmental performance. Also, do not forget about the low fuel consumption of the combined cycle. This figure is about 37.8 km / l.
This car can be equipped with different types of motors. If we talk about an economical engine, then this is a diesel engine. Even with a high power rating, it will save on fuel. At the same time, its technical indicators will be at a decent level.
Peugeot 308 1.6 Blue HDi perfectly combines a comfortable ride and ease of operation. In general, the car is a worthy vehicle that will meet the expectations of even the most demanding owner. It is safe in corners, the chassis feels and responds to them as quickly as possible. As for the stabilization system, it cannot be completely disabled. At the same time, before switching on, it makes it possible to maneuver.
An important advantage of this car is practicality. Its doors are wide, which allows you to get to the rear seat without obstacles. But the height of the roof is not very convenient. It is low enough that passengers can touch the ceiling with their heads, which causes discomfort.
Lada Kalina is a budget version of a sedan type car offered by a domestic manufacturer. The balance of fuel consumption should be considered only with the top modification, the older engine of 105 horsepower and mechanical control. Gasoline consumption in such a vehicle per 100 km is 6.4 liters. If we consider the modification with a gun, then it is distinguished by modest appetites.
Hyundai i20 1.1 CRDi Blue S is a type of super mini car. It has some disadvantages when driving. For example, knocking and weak vibration. But all this becomes insignificant if you analyze its fuel consumption. This indicator will please any driver. Moreover, all the errors of the machine, as it starts to move, are almost imperceptible. Therefore, it is not worth paying special attention to them.
It is also worth noting the weak acceleration of the car. In the case when it is necessary to hurry, this can upset the driver a little. This, perhaps, is all that can be said about the shortcomings of this model. At the same time, it should be borne in mind that it is a budget option, so many things will need to close your eyes.
Among the advantages, one can single out a high body and a spacious interior. The car has a spacious trunk in which you can place the necessary things, purchases and more. If you compare it with other models of this class, then no one can boast of such dimensions.
The main assistant in solving this problem in the car is the use of new technologies and tires, the rolling resistance of which is low. Thanks to this, this figure reaches the figure of 37.4 km / l. It was obtained as a result of state tests.
Previously, the Nissan Micra did little to attract buyers. And this is not surprising. Its appearance was rather unattractive and old-fashioned, weak and difficult to manage. Today the situation has changed significantly. The modern version of the vehicle offers a stylish interior and exterior. Also worth noting is the ride quality that the model offers. It is at a high level.
As for savings, it is quite impressive. This is explained by the presence of a diesel engine in the car. As a result, it is about 37.4 km / l
Citroen C4 is not a very convenient car option. Since it is difficult to manage, but the fuel economy indicator is pleasantly surprising. Diesel modification with start-stop technology reduces consumption by 35.5 km / l. At the same time, this model is quite comfortable. The suspension, which is equipped in it, is soft and elastic, the space in front is decent. As a result, the car behaves well on the track.
This model has been known on the market for a long time. The manufacturer has recently changed and improved its appearance, but this is not enough to call it a modern vehicle. The car has an unpretentious traditional exterior. Any engine can be installed in it. If we are talking about gasoline, then you should count on savings of 24.5 km / l.
mercedes a-class
Some premium cars are also included in this list. The most economical is the Mercedes A-Class. Its fuel consumption per 100 km is 3.8 liters. This is a rather low figure.
If we talk about the configuration and technical characteristics of the vehicle, then they are excellent. The Germans offer a reliable and high-quality car. It is not difficult to drive, maneuvers well and is great for domestic roads. In addition, it consumes fuel economically, which is important in the conditions of an unstable economic situation in the country.
This brand is another option for an economical car that belongs to the premium class. The only thing to consider is the cost of the vehicle. She is high enough. During operation, these costs will be justified. Since the cost of refueling the vehicle will be minimal.
If the BMW 1 Series has a diesel modification, then the fuel consumption in the combined cycle will not exceed 3.8 liters per 100 km. Such indicators are promised by the manufacturer on urban roads. If you move along the highway, then the flow rate will be within 3.4 liters.
The most economical SUVs
A crossover is a common vehicle model. It is purchased not only for trips through the mountains and other off-road, but also for city roads. And this is not surprising. The car has an attractive appearance, comfortable and powerful. Its main disadvantage is the high fuel consumption. As a result, it is not easy to feed such an iron friend.
Modern manufacturers have taken this moment into account. Today, the creators offer a fairly large selection of crossovers that have low fuel consumption in the city. At the same time, they are powerful, roomy and inexpensive.
Given the above characteristics, the list of the most profitable SUVs in terms of refueling includes:
- Renault Duster;
- Nissan X-Trail;
- Toyota RaV4;
- Mazda CX-5;
- Hyundai Tucson;
- Kia Sportage.
These cars in the combined cycle consume from 4.9 to 7.0 liters of fuel per hundred kilometers. Their power is in the range from 110 to 180 horsepower, and the clearance is 180-215 mm. Thus, it will not take much money to refuel them, given the features of off-road vehicles.
If we consider crossovers with a gasoline engine, then it is worth noting the following models:
- Mitsubishi Outlander;
- Nissan Qashqai;
- Subaru Forester;
- Volkswagen Tiguan.
These powerful off-road vehicles consume a small amount of fuel. They have a 139-155 horsepower motor, ground clearance is in the range of 205 - 225 mm. They consume no more than 8 liters of fuel per hundred kilometers. In some cases, it is even 7.3 liters.
These car brands are very popular among consumers. Because the value for money is in line with each other. These are powerful and comfortable vehicles with low fuel consumption.
There are a number of cars that are in poor demand from the consumer. The clearance indicator in them leaves much to be desired. Despite this, they are quite economical in fuel consumption. A hundred kilometers will require only 8-9 liters of gasoline. This list of SUVs includes:
- Honda CR-V;
- Skoda Yeti;
- Subaru XV;
- Renault Koleos.
The least fuel is required by a crossover in which a diesel engine is installed. If we talk about a gasoline engine, then this is an SUV equipped with a well-known brand.
Premium SUVs
Premium-class cars are quite expensive during operation. As a result, not many people decide to purchase them. After all, it is not enough to accumulate a certain amount to become the owner of such a car. It is necessary to think about whether there will be enough finances to refuel it. In this regard, premium cars are found mainly in people with high incomes.
Thanks to modern technologies that are actively used in the construction of cars, the creators of these brands have found ways to solve this problem. What helped them make their cars more in demand with the buyer. The efficiency of the car is achieved by reducing its overall weight, improving aerodynamics and much more.
The most economical cars in this segment include:
- Mercedes-Benz ML. Taking into account the fact that it has a fairly powerful engine of 300 horsepower, and the weight of the crossover is two tons, it consumes only 11 liters of gasoline in the combined cycle. If we talk about diesel modification, then this figure is 7 liters;
- Lexus RX. This crossover has appeared on the market recently. It has many virtues. The main one is the reduced level of emissions of harmful substances into the environment. In addition, he has a small appetite. Fuel consumption is only 6 liters of gasoline when the battery is fully charged. Otherwise, about 13 liters will be required;
- Mercedes GLA. If we talk about all-wheel drive equipment, then an average of 5.9 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers is needed;
- BMW X1 and BMW X3. Consumption is 5.01 and 5.7 liters of diesel fuel, respectively. It is important to note that with a mixed cycle;
- Range Rover Evoque. This SUV consumes 6.1 liters of fuel. The calculation is given for a diesel turbo engine. If you install a gasoline engine, then this figure will be much higher.
Previously, one could only dream of a high-quality, all-wheel drive and powerful car that was economical in terms of fuel consumption. Today the situation has changed significantly. Now everyone can choose the SUV that will meet their requirements and preferences. At the same time, the cost of its refueling will be minimal. A great example of such a crossover is the Mercedes GML. It was possible to achieve a low fuel consumption rate by increasing the pressure, changing the geometry of the turbine blades and the electronic control system.
How is the situation in the secondary market?
In the automotive market, you can find not only new cars, but also used ones. For a certain category of the population, this is an excellent option. Since the cost of the vehicle will be significantly lower than the one that was not previously in operation. Therefore, it will take less money to purchase the model you like.
Used cars require special attention. This is explained by the fact that any machine during operation can change some qualities. As a result, it is not appropriate to talk about those that the creator offers. Many qualities for the first years of operation may not appear.
When choosing such a car, experts advise taking into account the fact that some components and parts are subject to the greatest wear. Also, do not forget about the investments that a used car will require. No less important is the question of the cost of repairing this brand.
As for fuel consumption, the domestic buyer prefers cars, both domestic and foreign cars. Each of these groups has its own models, which require a minimum of funds to refuel.
Lada has become the most popular Russian-made brand. The cost of such a car is low. It is convenient and comfortable. In the case of repair parts, it will not be difficult to purchase. Moreover, their cost is relatively low. As for fuel consumption, this figure is also acceptable.
Among the popular foreign cars of the former use, we can safely distinguish:
- Chery Kimo. This car has a 1.3 engine with a power of 82 horsepower. If we calculate fuel consumption for urban roads, then this figure is 9 liters;
- Volkswagen Polo. This brand offers an engine with a capacity of 86 horsepower. Management is performed by five-speed mechanics. The vehicle consumes 8.8 liters per 100 km on a city road;
- Fiat 500. Pretty economical car. A manual transmission requires only 5.5 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers;
- Daewoo Matiz. Its power is quite small. And this is not surprising. After all, the operation of the car is provided by a 0.8 liter engine with 52 horsepower. It is recommended to fill this brand with 92 gasoline. Its consumption will be 7.5 liters per 100 kilometers. - Rising gasoline prices encourage car owners to think about alternative fuels.

Greetings visitors and readers of the automotive site Autoguid.ru Today's article will talk about the 10 most economical cars in the world in terms of fuel consumption. We will make a reservation right away that we will not consider electric cars. The rating includes cars that run purely on fuel or hybrid versions.
Events in the world oil market indicate that the era of oil is coming to an end. “Green sources” of energy and electricity are on the first place. This is especially noticeable in the automotive market. He subtly feels global trends and clearly adheres to the strategy of using alternative energy sources. Automotive manufacturers have taken the benchmark for the maximum reduction in fuel consumption of cars.
Leading engineers of automotive corporations are working to create an engine that consumes fuel resources as little as possible. Reducing the consumption of gasoline and diesel is at the forefront when creating new models of cars. Traditional gasoline and diesel versions of engines are crowded by hybrid versions. They are an intermediate chain between electric cars and traditional fuel versions of cars.
We present the top 10 most economical cars in the world on fuel consumption.
The miniature car, beloved by housewives, students and retirees, has mixed fuel consumption in 6.8 liters per 100 kilometers . Vehicle consumption may vary depending on driving style and vehicle load.
Korean engineers equipped a compact and lightweight car with a 0.8 cm³ engine and a power of 51 horsepower. The use of a low-power motor did not affect the acceleration dynamics of the car in the best way. To the cherished "hundreds" the car will accelerate as much as 14-15 seconds. In any case, the car is not designed for high-speed driving.
9. Chery Bonus, 6.2 liters per 100 kilometers
The Chinese car Chery Bonus is famous for the fact that it managed to give way to Daewoo Matiz in terms of speed gain dynamics. He is able to gain speed of 100 kilometers per hour in only 16-18 seconds. The car is slow and clumsy.
Its only plus is that it consumes a small amount of fuel. Chery Bonus mixed expense is 6.2 liters per 100 kilometers . This is where the advantages and disadvantages of using the machine end.
8. Audi A1 Sportback, 5.6 liters per 100 kilometers
The German car surprises with low fuel consumption. Despite the modest “appetites”, the car is able to pick up speed of 100 km / h in 9 seconds. Good result for a compact small car.
The car is located on the 8th line in the ranking of the most economical cars in terms of fuel consumption. Despite the engine with a volume of 1.4 liters, the car produces 122 horsepower. Outside the city, car consumption is reduced to a record 4.6 liters per 100 kilometers .
7. Smart ForTwo, 5.2 liters per 100 kilometers
The two-compact car consumes a small amount of fuel in the combined cycle. The average consumption of the machine is 5.2 liters per 100 kilometers . A power unit with a capacity of 88 horsepower is installed on the car.
If desired, you can buy Smart ForTwo with a lower power motor. The 77 horsepower version of the engine will further reduce fuel consumption in the combined cycle. In terms of functionality, the car leaves much to be desired, as it is designed for 2 people and has a small trunk. Great option for city driving.
6.Peugeot 107, 5.0 liters per 100 kilometers
A compact French car in terms of fuel consumption is content with little. Its engine "consumes" 5 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers in the combined cycle (city-highway). The machine is modest in size. Often, tall drivers and passengers complained about crowding.
The car is not designed for travel. He is a typical representative of cars that feel comfortable on the narrow streets of cities. Among its shortcomings, one can single out an inadequately high cost. For this money you can take a budget car of the middle class.
5. Skoda Fabia 1.2 TDI Greenline II, 4.5 liters per 100 kilometers
The Czech automotive giant Škoda is actively working to reduce the fuel consumption of its cars. The appearance of the Skoda Fabia 1.2 TDI confirms the right direction of Czech engineers in the design of machines. They created a car with an expense 4.5 liters per 100 kilometers in a mixed cycle.
The machine runs on diesel fuel. Despite the modest engine volume of 1.2 liters, the car behaves smartly on the road. All thanks to the use of a turbine. A feature of the car from the Skoda company is that in the car they were able to achieve a reduction in emissions of harmful substances into the atmosphere.
4. Peugeot 208 1.4 e-HDi 70 EGC, 4.0 liters per 100 kilometers
The French company Peugeot was able to create a car with an expense 4 liters per 100 kilometers . The Peugeot 208 has a modest size and is mostly designed for use in urban environments.
The car is equipped with a 1.4-liter engine. It works on diesel fuel. The engine is equipped with a turbine that provides acceptable vehicle dynamics.
The maximum speed that the Peugeot 208 is capable of developing is 165 km/h. The car has moderate speed characteristics and cannot satisfy the needs of those who like to ride with the breeze.
3. Lexus CT200h, 3.7 liters per 100 kilometers
A hybrid vehicle that uses electricity in addition to gasoline as fuel. The introduction of hybrid technology has enabled car manufacturers to reduce fuel consumption. Often, in some models of cars, the average fuel consumption has decreased by 1.5-2 liters per hundred kilometers.
The Lexus CT200h is only capable of driving about 3 kilometers on an electrical installation. The main thing is not to develop a high speed, as the gasoline mode of the engine is automatically activated.
2.Toyota Prius Plug In, 2.1 liters per 100 kilometers
In second place in the top 10 most economical cars in the world is another representative of the hybrid family of cars. The Japanese concern Toyota introduced the Prius Plug In using 2.1 liters per 100 kilometers run.
Despite the modest fuel consumption, the car is able to reach speeds of 100 km / h in 11 seconds. The maximum speed is 180 km/h. The car, thanks to a special electrical installation, has a range of 1200 kilometers. The battery can be charged from an ordinary household electrical outlet.
Cars with classic automatics tend to be less economical than their "mechanical" counterparts. Probably, at a short distance, the difference in fuel costs is not so noticeable, but if you estimate the expenses for the year, the amount will be quite significant. Therefore, we made a selection of the most economical cars with an automatic transmission based on the passport fuel consumption in a mixed driving mode (city + highway). Let's make a reservation right away that only gasoline versions were taken into account, since diesel modifications are traditionally not popular in Russia, and in the case of hybrids, the average fuel consumption depends too much on many factors: driving style, ambient temperature, etc.
It is obvious that the consumption of gasoline is less, the more perfect the engine and transmission of the car. And the size of the car is of fundamental importance, because the more compact the model, the less its curb weight and aerodynamic drag.
So let's go...
12th place
The rating closes by far not the most modern, but one of the smallest cars that you can buy from us. This is the Uzbek Ravon R2, the successor to the Chevrolet Spark. The five-door hatchback is equipped with a 1.3-liter (86 hp) engine that is quite powerful for such a baby, which is paired with an outdated 4-speed hydromechanical automatic transmission. But Ravon R2 boasts the lowest price for the version with automatic transmission. In the minimum configuration "Comfort" it will cost only 389,000 rubles. The average consumption according to factory data is 6.7 l per 100 km.
11th place
It shares the penultimate line of the efficiency rating with our most popular “Koreans” Hyundai Solaris and Kia Rio. The average fuel consumption of all three is 6.6 l/100 km. It should also be noted that the Lada with a 106-horsepower engine combines an auto-mechanical transmission (AMT). By the way, Lada Kalina with a robotic gearbox also demonstrates a similar indicator, but in combination with a 4-speed hydromechanical automatic machine, the Togliatti hatchback consumes noticeably more than 7.2 l / 100 km.
It would seem that the 107-horsepower Solaris and Rio also have a classic 4-speed automatic, but they can handle the consumption of 6.6 liters. As for the new 6-speed automatic transmission, which is installed on more powerful 123-horsepower modifications of Solaris and Rio, its average was 0.1 liters higher than that of the younger version.
10th place
Toyota Corolla in the Russian market in terms of efficiency competes with. Both cars spend on average 6.3 l per 100 kilometers. Moreover, in the arsenal of the Corolla there is a 122-horsepower engine and a stepless variator, by the way, the only one in our rating. And Ford has a 6-speed PowerShift robot with two clutches as a gearbox. At the same time, both versions of the Ford 1.6-liter engine (with a capacity of 105 and 125 hp), according to the manufacturer, consume the same amount of fuel in the combined cycle.
9th place
Slightly lower fuel consumption 5.9 l per hundred - demonstrates the 105-strong Fiesta. The difference of 200 kg of curb weight compared to the Focus did their job, bringing the car to the ninth position. Volkswagen Polo 1.4 TSI (125 hp), 7DSG - from 856,900 rubles.
Volkswagen Polo 1.4 TSI (125 hp), 7DSG - from 856,900 rubles.
Volkswagen Polo sedan assembled in Kaluga is even a fraction more economical. Its turbo version with a 1.4 TSI engine paired with a 7-speed DSG robot spends on average 5.7 l for every 100 km run. Do you believe? It is quite possible if you drive in eco-rally mode, but if you overdo it once or twice with pressing the accelerator pedal, all the savings will go down the drain. It's good that there is an alternative: a tandem of a 1.6-liter aspirated (110 hp) and a 6-speed automatic will require, according to the manufacturer, a little more - 5.9 liters per hundred. But to achieve such an indicator in practice is much easier.
