We passed 2 million kms of driving data and decided to have a dig around to see what helpful info we could provide. Looking for a new car? VW stands out among the cars with the best gas mileage! What You’ll Learn Toggle Knowledge is powerWhat are the cars with best gas mileage?Data puts you in the driver’s seat Knowledge is power When you put GOFAR in your car it’s like upgrading your car and one of the benefits is that it provides drivers with a lot more information. When consumers have more knowledge, they have more power and that usually translates into a better deal for the driver which can help minimize traffic accidents. So, here at GOFAR, we’re dedicated to providing you with useful insights to make your car smarter, help reduce maintenance costs and remove the frustrations of owning a car. What are the cars with best gas mileage? This post is just a simple starting point but we wanted to share it to get comments. It started when we asked “What is the most efficiently driven car in the GOFAR community”? Well, we ran some numbers and then realised we needed to be more specific so we refined the question to what is the most efficient petrol (or gasoline) make / model in the community. Here’s the top three for you, but bear in mind this is based on actual driving data as opposed to claimed efficiency. Maybe certain cars have strong economy performance but appeal to drivers who have a slightly heavier foot! Also bear in mind that the more cars we monitor the more accurate we can be. Given the furore over emissions reporting in the last year, no doubt VW will be pleased to see this! Data puts you in the driver’s seat Consumer organisations, like Choice, have flagged up that manufacturer’s claimed efficiency does not always match the reality. This may not surprise the skeptical driver, but manufacturers go through set tests and (generally) take compliance with these very seriously. We can only imagine in the future that given recent issues (and it wasn’t just VW with “issues” – Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Mazda and Mitsubishi’s cars have all been shown to emit more NOx pollution on the road than in regulatory tests), car brands will be working hard to re-establish trust in their claims and procedures. What you can do as a driver though is use less fuel and drive more efficiently, whatever type of car you’re driving and here at GOFAR we hope to provide you with the information and tools to do so. We’d love your comments on car efficiency data and we’ll provide more data soon. The information above was based on cars with best gas mileage in the GOFAR community in Australia and we’ll update it shortly with more makes and models. Interested in having GOFAR in your car? We work hard to make GOFAR compatible with all mobile devices, car brands and models. At this moment, it works with all petrol, diesel or hybrid vehicles made after 2007 like ISO cars, but also with many cars made before. Spoiler alert – it probably does. Check my car compatibility
