Real-world MPG vs the EPA number

The EPA figures above come from a standardized dynamometer test, not the open road — real-world MPG typically runs a bit lower depending on your driving, climate and terrain. That's true of every car on this site, old or new.

For its most efficient trim, the EPA estimates about $1,050 a year in fuel (15,000 miles) — roughly $88 a month.
