Home / Fuel Economy

What Is Fuel Economy?

In simple terms, fuel economy refers to the number of miles your vehicle can travel on a full tank. If you own a gas-powered, diesel-powered, or hybrid model, your fuel economy will be measured in miles per gallon (MPG). On the other hand, electric vehicles will be measured in miles per gallon gasoline equivalent (MPGe). 

You may be wondering, “What makes a good fuel economy?” Typically, the higher the value, the greater the gas mileage. The standard gas mileage will also differ between body styles. Smaller vehicles like sedans often sport a higher fuel economy than a larger vehicle like a truck. This is due to their size and curb weight differences. 

Hybrids, Plug-In Hybrids, Electric, and Fuel Cell Vehicles

As the automotive industry grows, more and more fuel-conscious, and zero-emissions vehicles are hitting the market. When considering fuel economy, hybrids, plug-in hybrids, electric, and fuel cell vehicles will offer drivers a grander fuel economy because they operate more efficiently and cleanly.
