We came to know today that the price of fuel has come down again, by Rs.40 per liter for petrol and Rs.15 for Diesel. This is quite the step down for the price. However, the price itself is still quite high and people would still prefer to drive fuel-efficient cars. If you have a transit in the city on a regular basis, then you would require a vehicle that does not consume too much fuel.
So, if you are looking to purchase a fuel-efficient car in less than Rs.15 Lac, this is the place. We highly recommend looking for vehicles with an engine capacity of 1.3L or less. The higher up you go, the more fuel consumption you can expect in the city. While a 1.8 Toyota Corolla will give a good fuel average on the motorway, it will not be good in the city.
1. Suzuki Mehran
We cannot talk about fuel-efficient cars and leave the Boss of the list. Yes, the car is considered a boss in the country, with its impressive fuel average, its highly affordable parts and low maintenance. It can give you a fuel average of more than 14 in the city, sometimes 15. This is kilometers per liter.
2. Daihatsu Cars – Mira
You can get a decent Mira in this budget. In fact, what better than to get an automatic vehicle in this budget. It has an impressive city average of more than 17 km to the liter. Not only that but it does not require a lot of maintenance.
3. Suzuki Alto
Whether it is the older model of an alto or the newer 660cc one, both of them give you a good fuel average. Of course, the newer one gives an even better one, between 16-18 kilometers but it has a higher budget range. For the older model, it can give a fuel average of between 13-15.
4. Mitsubishi Cars – Lancer 2006/08
While this vehicle comes packed with a 1.3L engine, it is known for a good city average. Not only does it give an average between 12-14 kilometer to the liter, but it also offers comfort and ease. It is definitely worth checking out in this budget.
5. Suzuki Cultus
In this budget, one can purchase the EFI model of the older cultus. Anywhere between the 2014 and the 2016 model can be bought. It can give you a decent city average and allows you to maintain it in a lower price too. This is worth checking out if you are going for fuel efficient.
6. Toyota Cars – Passo
This is yet another vehicle that has an impressive fuel average within the city. You can buy a 1st Generation Passo within 15 lac, from the years 2006-2008. It gives an avg of 13-15 in the city and 18 on the motorway.
In this day and age of fluctuating fuel prices, it is important to purchase a vehicle after a good thought.
