Top economy cars by fuel consumption
Toyota Yaris Hybrid
The first on the list is a car made by Toyota. This company is famous for the reliability and durability of its cars. But is it so? For a long time, the percentage of Toyota consumption has been increasing. Toyota Yaris 2019 is one of the most economical cars in terms of fuel consumption. The discharge is from 2.8 to 8.8 liters per 100 km. Toyota Yaris is available with the following types of fuel: Gasoline AI-95, Gasoline, Regular Gasoline (AI-92, AI-95), Diesel fuel. Due to what the indicator can be reduced:
-
use of energy recovery systems during braking;
-
lightening the weight of the car when replacing the body elements and chassis with innovative materials;
-
engine improvements;
-
replacement of the exhaust system.
For new models, the consumption of 6 liters / 100 km is considered quite a cruising indicator, but it will be higher for heavy SUVs and pickups and lower for small hybrids.
Ford Mondeo Hybrid
Not so long ago, auto hybrids seemed an unusual and exotic thing. But, to date, such machines have increased their popularity and competitiveness. One of these is the new Ford Mondeo, a restyled version of which was presented in Brussels in early 2019. The fifth generation of the American liftback is based on the CD4 platform, which is also the basis for many other models. MacPherson racks are installed, and a "multi-link" is installed at the back. Such a scheme allows you to achieve both good controllability and good smoothness. In addition, judging by the reviews of the owners, this suspension scheme is quite reliable even in conditions of imperfect roads. The Hybrid configuration is hidden under the hood: a 139-horsepower atmospheric four-cylinder gasoline two-liter engine running on the Atkinson cycle, and an electric motor. Their total power is 187 "horses" and 173 Nm of torque. This is enough to accelerate a car with a curb weight of more than 1.5 tons to the first hundred in 9.2 seconds. At the same time, the manufacturer assures that fuel consumption will be 4.7 liters in urban traffic, 4.2 liters on the highway, 4.4 liters in mixed mode.
BMW 520d
BMW is one of the world's leading companies in the world. The number of cars hangs in the aisles. Under the hood is a four-cylinder inline engine N20 B20 with a volume of 2.0 liters. It produces a power of 184 hp (270 Nm). The engine has a maximum power of 450 hp and a peak torque of 650 Nm. Four-wheel drive BMW demonstrates "hurricane" dynamics, reaching 100 km / h 4.4 seconds after the start. The design of the car is elegant and modern. In front of the sedan, there are elongated lights divided into 2 segments, each of which has LED strips. The head optics are visually connected to the chrome grille. The latter also, according to the corporate style. BMW 520d in the xDrive modification stands out from the rest by the presence of an all-wheel drive transmission and a relatively affordable price. Moreover, the initial configuration provides for a wide range of onboard equipment.
