Most Fuel-Efficient Cars in 2026
Compare gasoline cars by EPA miles per gallon, with the highest-mpg entries appearing first. That makes it easy to see which models lead on fuel economy, then consider how each one fits your needs. The opening entries include the 2027 Toyota Prius, 2025 Toyota Prius AWD and 2026 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid Blue. You can also compare other current cars in the 402-entry selection, including additional Prius versions and the Toyota Camry HEV FF LE. Use the model and year names to distinguish variants as you weigh fuel savings against your other priorities.
