Cherokee Hyundai Features Top 10 Fuel-Efficient Car

March 15, 2011 - PRLog -- Cherokee Hyundai, a Kennesaw Hyundai dealer, announces that the 2011 Hyundai Elantra has been named a Top 10 Fuel-Efficient Car by TrueCar.com. To determine the list, TrueCar.com, an online vehicle pricing guide, calculated total fuel costs using average combined EPA MPGs, current fuel prices, and an average usage rate of 15,000 miles annually.

Nine of the top ten vehicles were hybrids, with the 2011 Hyundai Elantra as the only non-hybrid vehicle on the list. TrueCar.com excluded pure-electric vehicles due to the fact that there is no cost associated with filling up the tank.

“When purchasing a fuel-efficient vehicle, consumers should consider two factors — price and annual cost of fuel,” Jesse Toprak, vice president of industry trends and insights at TrueCar.com, suggested.

With an EPA combined MPG of 33.1, the 2011 Hyundai Elantra accrues approximately $1,595 in fuel costs per year, based on an average 453 gallon per year consumption rate and current fuel price of $3.52 per gallon for regular unleaded.  Factoring in an average purchase price of $15,052, the 2011 Hyundai Elantra is one of the most cost effective and fuel efficient cars on the road.

Marietta Hyundai shoppers searching for a vehicle with low fuel costs can test drive the 2011 Hyundai Elantra, in stock now at Cherokee Hyundai in Kennesaw, GA.
