EPA has changed the way it
estimates MPG.
Starting in model year 2008, estimates will reflect the
effects of
- Faster Speeds & Acceleration
- Air Conditioner Use
- Colder Outside Temperatures
What else do I need to know about the new ratings?
-
The tests lower MPG estimates for most vehicles.
-
The actual mileage you get will
still vary based on your driving habits, traffic
conditions, and other factors.
-
All MPG estimates in Find-a-Car have been converted to the to the new ratings system to help
consumers compare the MPG of older and newer cars.
