Thinking about buying a new vehicle?

You've come to the right place.

Visit www.fueleconomy.gov for gas mileage estimates and more information for 1985-2006 model year cars.

Selecting which vehicle to purchase is the most important fuel economy decision you'll make. The difference between a car that gets 20 MPG and one that gets 30 MPG amounts to $550 per year (assuming 15,000 miles of driving annually and a fuel cost of $2.20).

That's $2,200 extra in fuel costs in just four years!

Use www.fueleconomy.gov's Find and Compare Cars section to find the most fuel efficient vehicle that will meet your needs.

Even within a size class, there is a tremendous range of MPGs to choose from. For example, similar 2006 model year compact cars range from 20 to 40 MPG. Choosing the 40 MPG car could save you hundreds of dollars in fuel costs each year.
