At this point, creating the most fuel efficient vehicle out there is the main priority for many car manufacturers and, up until now, hybrids and electric vehicles seem to be the easiest way to do that. But not all people are willing to buy an EV or a hybrid because nothing compares to the feeling you get when pressing the throttle of a gasoline-powered car so, aren't you curious which are the most efficient "conventional" cars out there?
China Car Times has created a top with the most efficient cars in China, which could be easily considered the paradise of the auto industry - the only place that managed to survive the crisis while other countries offered millions of dollars in government incentives.
Well, to get to the point, the most efficient car sold on Chinese soil is the smart fortwo equipped with a 1.0-liter, although it's not also the most affordable. And although the top is dominated by a foreign model, there are many Chinese vehicles that made the cut, including the Chery QQ with a 1.0-liter engine (on the second place), the JAC Yue Yue with a 1.0-liter unit (on the third position), and BYD F0, Riich M1 and BaoJun Spark on fourth, fifth and sixth places, respectively.
Of course, things are going to change a little bit in the near future in China, as top names of the auto industry are gearing up for the introduction of electric vehicles and hybrids into what has become the largest auto market in the world.
But, after all, how long is the electric auto industry going to last?
