The Two most Economical Cars in the UK

For the person looking to save money on the rising fuel prices, here's my Top 5 of the most economical cars available in England and the UK. The information has been taken from Auto Express who road tested these cars.

1- Ford Focus Econetic - 85.7mpg

87.5 miles per gallon is an incredibly impressive figure and the test proved that it lived up to and beyond the advertised mpg of 76.3mpg. This car managed to drive for 307.5miles on 20 fuel, so a full tank of 60 would give almost a thousand miles. I think my Toyota Prius Hybrid drank more petrol than this; I use to get around 300 miles for 35 worth of fuel. The Ford Focus Econetic has similarities to a hybrid vehicle; it uses the kinetic energy produced while breaking to provide energy to drive, as well as the petrol that's being used. The Focus also has the stop start technology where the car switches off when the car stops and starts again at pull off. Other factors making this Ford Focus Econetic more eco-friendly is the fact that there no spare wheel in the back, they supply special foam that fixes the punctured tyre. The Ford Focus also has low rolling resistance tyres, which helps reduce the amount of energy needed to progress forward.

2- VW Golf Bluemotion - 78.3mpg

VW advertise the Golf Bluemotion saying it gives an average of 74.3mpg, so it was a pleasant surprise to read that this particular road test gave the car an average of 78.3mpg. The VW Golf in my opinion is better looking and more solid than the Ford Focus Econetic. The Bluemotion with 20 fuel gave a total of 281 miles. Start and stop technology is also a feature on the Golf. The Bluemotion technology advises the driver on when to change gears to get optimum fuel economy. Again just like the Focus, the Golf Blue Motion comes with low rolling resistance tyres.

I'd love to own either of these cars as they have amazing money saving capabilities. For now I just have to put up with a Citroen, which I bought from used Citroen Oxfordshire dealership.
