Cars, SUVs, and Trucks With the Best Fuel Economy

The lists below highlight the vehicles by category that got the best fuel economy in Consumer Reports’ latest tests.

Rather than display every tested vehicle here, we have selected miles-per-gallon cutoffs that are relative to each category. For example, a vehicle that gets 21 mpg wouldn’t be competitive among compact cars, but it would be among the highest in the midsized-SUV or minivan category.
