The other leaderboard

Not the loudest, not the most powerful. The ones that burn the least, draw the least – and cost the least in tax.

The most frugal cars

Rated WLTP consumption, pure petrol and diesel only. Plug-in hybrids are deliberately left out: their rated figure is an artefact of the calculation, not a frugal engine.
