Gas by Class - Family Car Fuel Efficiency.
Sep 23rd, 2008 by gmoran
We’ve been focusing on functional gas savers that don’t carry the hybrid upcharge. We’ve looked vehicles for the college kid and the soccer mom but what about the family guy? Functional needs include commuter duty as well as fitting the whole family in for Sunday outings and even a road trip vacation. Is there anything with a little style also? We’ve been relegated to loser cruisers for too long! Take a look at the Audi A4. At 21 mpg in city driving and 30 on the road, fuel efficiency is non-hybrid acceptable at MSRP of $28,900. A 2.9 liter 200 horsepower turbo is a good thing! And man, is it sleek. The Avant Wagon sort of reminds one of the Dodge Magnum in its lines. The Audi A4 also comes in sedan and cabriolet models.
