Top 5 fuel-efficient petrol cars in India for 2023: A comprehensive list
Delhi : When it comes to selling automobiles or motorcycles in India, fuel efficiency has always been a major selling point, and when analysing sales, the most popular vehicles are also the most fuel-efficient ones available. As their main objective is to provide the best mileage per litre of gasoline, they have been small, inexpensive, and include no ostentatious features.
However, things have changed recently. With the advent of hybrid technology, larger, more expensive vehicles easily outperformed smaller vehicles in terms of fuel efficiency. Would you believe that a mid-size SUV is the most fuel-efficient car in India?
These are India's current most fuel-efficient petrol vehicles
Suzuki Maruti S-Presso
The S-Presso is ranked seventh among India's most fuel-efficient vehicles. It might have been the first a few years ago, proving once again how times have evolved. With a mileage of 25 kmpl, the S-Presso adheres to the conventional small engine, light car formula.
Maruti Suzuki Wagon R
The Maruti Suzuki Waggon R is yet another vehicle that most people anticipate ranking first. By a narrow margin, the tall-boy hatchback surpasses its brother, the Maruti Suzuki S-Presso, to claim the fourth position. The Maruti Suzuki Waggon R gets 25.19 kmpl of mileage.
Maruti Suzuki Celerio
The Maruti Suzuki Celerio, a compact vehicle with a small engine, is the third-most fuel-efficient vehicle in India. The K-Series engine, which aids in 26kmpl extraction, was recently installed in the Celerio as part of a significant update.
Honda City
The Honda City was a vehicle that managed to strike a delicate balance between efficiency and performance, without just being renowned for the latter. However, the Honda City's hybrid system makes it the second-most fuel-efficient vehicle in India in 2023. The Honda City hybrid has a 27.13kmpl fuel economy rating and all the features a mid-size sedan can provide.
Toyota Hyryder/Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara
Who would have imagined that mid-size SUVs would be India's most fuel-efficient petrol car, as we indicated at the beginning? Due to their hybrid engines, which Toyota developed, the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara and the Toyota Hyryder win the top rank, returning a mileage of 27.97 kmpl.
