With the rising cost of fuel, consumers are looking for the most fuel-efficient option possible when searching for their next vehicle. Fuel economy has always been a concern of Quebec consumers, but this is true now more than ever.
That said, just because fuel economy is an important consideration doesn't mean that our other needs have to be compromised. Your growing family and active lifestyle require a spacious vehicle but the good news is that it’s now possible to combine versatility with fuel economy. The five SUVs below do just that and they do it very well. Here are five fuel-efficient sport utility vehicles to consider on sale today in the Greater Montreal Area.
2022 Nissan Kicks
The Nissan Kicks is one of the most fuel-efficient sport utility vehicles you can buy, but it’s also perfect for life in the Greater Montreal Area. With over 700 L of cargo space, the Nissan Kicks really shines where it matters. It also averages less than 7 L per 100 km on the highway.
2022 Toyota RAV4
The Toyota RAV4 is offered in multiple versions including hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains. That said, you don't have to go with a hybrid to get a fuel-efficient SUV with the Toyota RAV4. Even models with all-wheel drive average under 9 L per 100 km in combined fuel economy which is very impressive.
2022 Nissan Rogue
With its all-new three-cylinder turbocharged engine available in most of the lineup, the 2022 Nissan Rogue is now the most fuel-efficient non-hybrid SUV you can buy. The three-cylinder engine offers 201 hp and exceptional performance, but it also averages less than 7 L per 100 km.
2022 Mazda CX-30
The 2022 Mazda CX-30 is powered by SKYACTIV technology and despite offering all-wheel-drive standard, it still averages under 7.0 litres per 100 km on the highway. It also offers nearly 600 L of total cargo space, making it a very efficient option with plenty of space.
