Many of the most fuel-efficient cars available today are hybrids, with several models routinely achieving over 50 miles per gallon (mpg) in combined city and highway driving[1][2][4].

  • Toyota Prius: Often cited as the most fuel-efficient non-plug-in car, the 2025 Prius boasts around 58 mpg in the city and 53 mpg on the highway. Its advanced hybrid system balances efficiency and practicality, ensuring drivers get exceptional mileage without sacrificing interior comfort[2][4][5].
  • Hyundai Elantra Hybrid: Known for affordability as well as efficiency, the Elantra Hybrid approaches 54 mpg city and 50 mpg highway. Its accessible price makes it appealing for budget-conscious drivers seeking lower fuel costs[2][4][5].
  • Toyota Corolla Hybrid: Carrying Toyota’s reputation for reliability and longevity, this hybrid sedan achieves about 53 mpg city and 50 mpg highway, making it both cost-effective and durable[2][4].
  • Honda Civic Hybrid: The Civic Hybrid combines sleek design with high efficiency, achieving close to 55 mpg city and 49 mpg highway in newer models. The non-hybrid Civic remains a strong contender for great gas mileage as well[2][4].
  • Kia Niro: This hybrid wagon/SUV variant delivers up to 49 mpg combined and includes advanced technology and a practical configuration for families or drivers needing more cargo space[1][5].
  • Toyota Camry Hybrid: As a midsize sedan, the Camry Hybrid offers both performance and impressive fuel economy, with figures around 51 mpg city and 53 mpg highway in recent years[1][3][5].
  • Hyundai Ioniq: Available as both a hybrid and plug-in hybrid, the Ioniq offers strong efficiency and practicality, commonly exceeding 60 mpg for the hybrid model[3][6].
  • Honda Accord Hybrid: For those seeking a larger sedan, the Accord Hybrid provides up to 48 mpg combined along with a comfortable ride and spacious cabin[4][7].

Smaller gasoline-powered cars also offer low fuel consumption, such as the Mitsubishi Mirage and Mini Hardtop 2 Door, but typically don’t match the efficiency of top hybrids[1]. Plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles can further reduce fuel costs, though their fuel savings can depend on driving habits and charging availability.
