Top three SUVs that give both power and mileage
SUVs are powerful vehicles that are meant for all-terrain drives and comfortable rides. They are not well known for their gas mileage. Their engines gulp down gas by gallons to give you the adrenaline rush of speed.
However, there are a few SUVs that are better than others, when it comes to mileage and saving a few hundred dollars for their owners. Following is a list of three new SUVs that come with the best deals and give the best gas mileage.
Toyota Highlander Hybrid
The Toyota Highlander is an upscale and practical SUV that is surprisingly fuel economic. Most people do not expect cars of this size to be friendly on the pocket in terms of fuel, and they are pleasantly surprised to see the Highlander breaking records for them.
Mitsubishi Outlander
Mitsubishi is well known for making world-class cars, and with the Outlander it has made an SUV that is difficult to beat. This SUV comfortably seats five to seven people and comes in two-wheel rain options: forward-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. Mileage wise, this SUV gets a decent 20-25 in the city and very nice 27-30 on highways. Mitsubishi Outlander is the perfect deal for anyone looking for a good-looking SUV with a great mileage.
Nissan Pathfinder Hybrid
Nissan Pathfinder comes with a powerful V6 engine which is great for powerful drives on rugged terrains. It can easily handle some amount of off-roading and give you a nice SUV feel. This SUV gives a mileage of 19-20 in the city which is lower than the above mentioned two but its highway numbers are decent–between 26-27 mpg.
These models are available among the best deals in new SUVs and give the best gas mileage in their class. It is very difficult to find an SUV that gives both power and mileage, so these are your best bet.
