Domestic motorists speak ambiguously about the model. Some call it a “rattle” because of the specific interior, where even on a new car you need to additionally grab the plastic in the cabin with self-tapping screws. Otherwise, it will fully justify its name, even with the radio turned on. For a year, you will have to pay about 50 thousand rubles for gasoline for Logan.

The balance of fuel consumption should be considered only with the top modification, the older engine of 105 horsepower and mechanically management. Gasoline consumption in such a vehicle per 100 km is 6.4 liters. If we consider the modification with a gun, then it is distinguished by modest appetites.
Hyundai i20 1.1 CRDi Blue S is a type of super mini car. It has some disadvantages when driving. For example, knock and weak vibration. But all this becomes insignificant if you analyze its fuel consumption. This indicator will please any driver. Moreover, all the errors of the machine, as it starts to move, are almost imperceptible. Therefore, it is not worth paying special attention to them.
It is also worth noting the weak acceleration of the car. In the case when it is necessary to hurry, this can upset the driver a little.

The most economical SUVs
A crossover is a common vehicle model. It is purchased not only for trips through the mountains and other off-road, but also for city roads. And this is not surprising.

In this regard, premium cars are found mainly in people with high incomes.
Thanks to modern technologies, which are actively used in the construction of cars, the creators of these brands have found ways to solve this problem. What helped them make their cars more in demand with the buyer. The efficiency of the car is achieved by reducing its overall weight, improving aerodynamics and much more.

Used cars require special attention. This is explained by the fact that any machine during operation can change some qualities. As a result, it is not appropriate to talk about those that the creator offers. Many qualities for the first years of operation may not appear.
When choosing such a car, experts advise taking into account the fact that some components and parts are subject to the greatest wear. Also, do not forget about the investments that a used car will require. No less important is the question of the cost of repairing this brand.

For example, if you change the oil and filters more often, then such a machine may not be so economical. In this regard, gasoline engines are more economical. Also remember that often the fuel at gas stations does not meet the requirements, because of which it is necessary to repair the engine more often and fuel system in particular.

Remember that you will get an accurate calculation if you take into account all the factors that affect the cost of service.
The most economical cars
When you think about buying a car with low fuel consumption, think about the cost of operation. If your car consumes more fuel than prescribed in the instructions, then this does not necessarily mean a breakdown. Consumption may increase even due to the peculiarities of operation.
The table shows a list of machines with the most low flow fuel.
| car model | Consumption liter/100 km |
| Suzuki Kizashi SE | 9.52 |
| Acura TSX | 9.52 |
| Audi A4 Premium | 9.52 |
| Infiniti M35h | 9.52 |
| Audi AZ 2.0T (4-cylinder) | 9.52 |
| Mazda3s Sport | 9.52 |
| MazdaCX-STouring | 9.52 |
| Lexus IS 250 | 10,00 |
| Mercedes-Benz C250 | 10,00 |
| Acura Tl | 10,00 |
| Volkswagen CC Luxury | 10,00 |
| Buick Verano Leather | 10,00 |
| Infiniti G25 Journey | 10,00 |
| Saab 9-3 2.0T | 10,00 |
| Buick Regal CXL | 10,00 |
Most simple example to explain this factor is the following: you are standing at a traffic light, then green lights up, you pick up speed, and then once - and after 200 meters another traffic light. When there is such a driving style, the consumption cannot be small. When the car is accelerating, the engine uses more fuel than during a calm and smooth movement. Try to switch to more in the shortest possible time in order to increase the speed of the machine without increasing fuel consumption.
The following factors, which, although not very significant, but still affect fuel consumption, are:
- Aerodynamic resistance. Lowered windows during a trip can slightly increase fuel consumption, because the car literally “clings” to the air;
- Air conditioner included. Use also contributes to more fuel consumption, because it is powered by a generator, and the generator, in turn, keeps the charge due to fuel consumption;
- Loud music. Acoustic system is also powered by a generator that uses fuel to replenish supplies.
Of course, in pursuit of savings, you do not need to go to the point of absurdity and not use air conditioning, do not open windows and do not turn on music. Simply, when you use all the benefits of civilization, be aware that you have to pay for everything.
Answer accurately the question of what cars with low fuel consumption it is possible, but which car will be more economical - the answers here differ. You need to consider the cost of the machine and maintenance. The most interesting thing is that correct operation even old machines can be cheaper than the unwise use of the latest generation.
The video below shows the 5 most economical machines that are very compact and easy to operate.
TOP 10 most economical gasoline cars available on our market.
Recently, we highlighted their main advantage - modest appetites. Fuel consumption up to 3 liters per 100 km is the norm for them.
