If you’re shopping for a new car, then fuel efficiency has to be one of the factors you consider most. The difference in fuel economy between some car models can add up to hundreds of dollars saved each year, which means thousands over the lifetime of the car (not to mention saving you from making so many stops at the gas station).
To help inform you shopping choices, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best cars for gas mileage in 2019. This includes a range of makes and models, taking into account their history of fuel economy for used cars as well as new 2019 models.
The Top 10 Most Fuel Efficient Cars of 2019
10. Lexus ES Hybrid
Although luxury vehicles aren’t always known for their fuel economy, the Lexus ES Hybrid manages to be cost effective when it comes to gas usage while maintaining the comfort and quality you’d expect from a luxury car, including improved safety features in the 2019 model. That model carries estimates of 43 city miles per gallon and 45 highway miles.
9. Chevrolet Malibu
The Chevy Malibu has a reputation for good gas mileage. Since 2016, hybrid models all got a combined 46 miles per gallon between city and highway miles. The 2019 non-hybrid gets 32 miles.
8. Mitsubishi Mirage
With a relatively low price, the main feature of the Mitsubishi Mirage is its fuel economy. The 2019 hatchback measures up with a 39 combined miles per gallon in its automatic transfiguration.

A surprising inclusion on our list, this luxury sport sedan provides excellent fuel economy. To go along with the crisp handling and classic style, the XE measures out at 36 combined miles per gallon.

2. Toyota Prius
Long regarded as the obvious choice when it comes to fuel economy, Toyota’s Prius brand comes in at a close second on our list.
