I've been ill the last several days, so when I saw the
EPA's
Top 10 Most Fuel Efficient Vehicles List last
week, I just wasn't very surprised or excited. Hybrids
still dominate, especially in the city. Since,
however, I've read a few articles noting the
significance of the first diesel making the list.
A manual VW Jetta TDI is rated 30 mpg in the city, 41
on the highway. The Toyota
Prius is 48 and 45, respectively.
Many diesel fans regularly chide the whole hybrid
cars segment as a fad, but when it comes to city
driving it's clear, hybrids are easily superior.
In order the list goes: Toyota Prius, Honda
Civic Hybrid, Nissan
Altima hybrid, Ford
Escape hybrid (and Mercury
Mariner hybrid, Mazda
Tribute hybrid), Smart ForTwo, Toyota
Camry hybrid, VW Jetta Diesel Manual, VW Jetta
Diesel Automatic, Toyota Yaris Manual, and the Toyota
Yaris Automatic.
