Where can I buy a fuel-efficient petrol or diesel car?
Fuel-efficient petrol and diesel cars are present in all vehicle classes, and they are available from the majority of vehicle manufactures. You can check out the fuel economy information, with regard to the new car energy label or on the Vehicle Certification Agency website which gives you fuel economy and emissions data for all cars available in the UK. The key general ‘rule-of-thumb’ to assist you in your selection of a fuel-efficient car is: the smaller the better. Engine technologies which are enhancing the fuel economy of normal cars include Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) (or Fuel Stratified Injection FSI) and hybrid-electrics.
