Save Money

Improved fuel economy saves you money every time you fill up!

For example, a gasoline vehicle that gets 30 MPG will cost you $900 less to fuel each year than one that gets 20 MPG (assuming 15,000 miles of driving annually and a fuel cost of $3.60 per gallon). Over a period of 5 years, the 30-MPG vehicle will save you $4,500.
