Asian automakers dominate fleet fuel economy

Where’s an American competitor?

Perhaps you’ve seen the recent Chevy commercial where Howie Long wonders why Asian automakers have a fuel efficient reputation when GM sells some similar vehicles with better highway fuel economy?

Why? Well, because they have better fleet fuel economy.

This year Honda came in first at 23.6 mpg. Hyundai was second at 23.4, while Toyota was third at 23. 2 mpg according to the EPA.

Ford, as the top American automaker, came in 7th at 20.5 mpg. GM was eighth at 19.9 mpg.
