When shopping for used cars, there are countless factors to keep in mind, including (but not limited to) cargo space, overall dependability, and raw performance. One factor of critical importance to many drivers is gas mileage. Simply put, some cars are gas guzzlers while others will help you to be more frugal at the pump. Choosing a car with good gas mileage can yield significant long-term savings.

This naturally leads customers to wonder which used cars are best rated for fuel efficiency. As you explore used cars for sale in Wilmington, NC, we’d recommend starting with the following five:

Used Cars with Superior Fuel Economy

1) Honda Civic

The Honda Civic is often rated among the most popular cars in America, and it’s practically guaranteed to be one of the bestsellers of any given calendar year. One reason for its appeal? Excellent gas mileage, whether you get one of the base models or the hybrid. Coupe, sedan, or hatchback, the Civic always promises drivers excellent fuel economy.

2) Toyota Camry

Another enduringly popular selection, the Toyota Camry is proof that you don’t have to get a compact car to save money at the pump. Even relatively spacious sedans like the ever-popular Camry can offer excellent gas mileage.

3) Mitsubishi Mirage

For drivers who do want to get something a little smaller, the Mitsubishi Mirage is definitely a vehicle to consider. It is one of the smallest cars available in the U.S., so it may not be the ideal contender for families. If you don’t mind a compact ride, however, the gas mileage on the Mirage is extraordinary.

4) Hyundai Elantra

The Hyundai Elantra is another first-rate sedan that excels across different performance categories, with its exceptional reliability (a characteristic shared by most Hyundai vehicles) being of particular note. Better yet, the Elantra offers outstanding fuel economy, making it a fantastic pick for frugal drivers.

5) Toyota Prius

Of course, if you’re really committed to reducing fuel expenses, you may wish to opt for a hybrid vehicle. There are plenty of good ones to choose from, but the Toyota Prius ranks among the most comfortable and dependable.
