Fuel consumption monitor from a 2006 Honda Airwave.The displayed fuel economy is 18.1 km/L (5.5 L/100 km; 43 mpg ‑US). A Briggs and Stratton Flyer from 1916. Originally an experiment in creating a fuel-saving automobile in the United States, the vehicle weighed only 135 lb (61.2 kg) and was an adaptation of a small gasoline engine originally designed to power a bicycle.
The EPA rated the Nissan Leaf electric car with a combined fuel economy of 99 MPGe, [9] and rated the Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid with a combined fuel economy of 93 MPGe in all-electric mode, 37 MPG when operating with gasoline only, and an overall fuel economy rating of 60 mpg-US (3.9 L/100 km) combining power from electricity and gasoline.
The standard Nautilus achieves 21, 29 and 24 mpg ‑US (11.2, 8.1 and 9.8 L/100 km; 25, 35 and 29 mpg ‑imp) on the EPA's city, highway, and combined cycles respectively, while with hybrid power it gets 30, 31 and 30 mpg ‑US (7.8, 7.6 and 7.8 L/100 km; 36, 37 and 36 mpg ‑imp) on the same rating system.
Because of their light weight and small motors, they are extremely energy-efficient with a typical energy efficiency of 1.1 kWh (4.0 MJ) per 100 km [56] (1904 MPGe 810 km/L 0.124 L/100 km), even more efficient than bicycles and walking. However, as they must be recharged frequently, they are often collected overnight with motor vehicles ...
English: MPG to L/100KM Red: Imperial gallon (UK) Blue: Liquid gallon (US) Conversion formula used: L/100km=282.4809363/UK Gallon L/100km=235.2145833/US Gallon.
The car's estimated fuel economy for the 6-speed manual variant is 8 miles per U.S. gallon (29 L/100 km; 9.6 mpg ‑imp) in the city and 13 miles per U.S. gallon (18 L/100 km; 16 mpg ‑imp) on the highway, making it the least efficient car in 2008 for city and highway driving, according to the EPA.
Energy-efficient vehicles may reach twice the fuel efficiency of the average automobile. Cutting-edge designs, such as the diesel Mercedes-Benz Bionic concept vehicle have achieved a fuel efficiency as high as 84 miles per US gallon (2.8 L/100 km; 101 mpg ‑imp), four times the current conventional automotive average.

An optional hybrid kinetic-energy recovery system would augment the V8 by feeding electricity generated by braking to motors in the transmission. The 0–100 km/h (62 mph) time was reported to be as low as 3.5 seconds, with a top speed of 315 km/h (196 mph). [23] The car had a 2+2 body style and was to be marketed as a grand tourer.
