Best 60mpg cars
As motorists feel the pinch, we’re all looking to cut costs – and our special feature reveals the most efficient cars to suit your needs.
Fuel prices are a hot topic, for good reason. The cost of petrol and diesel hits families where it really hurts – in the wallet. And while you can’t do anything to bring down the escalating price of fuel, you can make sure you buy a car that uses less of it.
Not so long ago, vehicles that could routinely return 40mpg were something of a novelty, but the game has moved on. Now, you’ll find models that promise genuine 60mpg potential everywhere you look. Over the next eight pages, we guide you through the eco-friendly minefield by identifying Britain’s best over-sixties… First, we cast our eye over small cars – where a number of brilliant city models and superminis meet our 60mpg figure.
Next, we examine family cars. These range from sleek petrol-electric hatchbacks to traditional diesel estates – so whether you need something smart or versatile, you won’t be disappointed.
Finally, we run through the glamour boys and practicality kings of the 60mpg sector by looking at coupés, cabrios and MPVs. Throughout the test, we highlight some one-off 60mpg models, including a sporty hot hatch, a desirable compact executive car and a luxurious executive saloon.
So, if fuel economy is at the top of your agenda, our guide to what’s hot in the new car market is essential reading.
