Compact SUVS With the Best Gas Mileage
July 7, 2016
When you think of "fuel efficiency", the first vehicle to come to mind is not generally an SUV. However, not all SUVs get bad gas mileage.
Cars.com put together a list of the top subcompact SUVs you can purchase today that also give you a lot of bang for your fuel buck. At the top of the list is the Honda HR-V, which gets a 28 city MPG, 35 highway MPG, and overall MPG of 31. Coming in second is the Mazda CX-3, with 29/35/31 MPG.
If you're considering any of these fuel efficient SUVs, make sure to use TrueCar No Haggle and CarsDirect
to get the best deal on any of these vehicles.
