Honda has long been a frontrunner in the automotive industry, particularly when it comes to developing fuel-efficient vehicles. The 2024 lineup is no exception, offering a range of models that set the benchmark for their fuel economy without compromising on style, comfort, or performance. Here, we break down the best options across various categories including electric vehicles, hybrids, and gas-powered cars, ensuring there's a Honda that will exceed your expectations when it comes to fuel economy.
Leading Honda's charge into the electric future is the 2024 Honda Prologue. This all-electric SUV isn't just about environmental responsibility--it's also about power and aesthetics. With a range of approximately 452 kilometres per charge and the ability to fast charge to 80% in just 30 minutes, the Prologue is perfect for those who want to ditch gas without losing the freedom to roam. The vehicle's size is comparable to the Honda CR-V, making it a practical choice for families and adventurers alike.
Hybrids remain a strong point in Honda's strategy to balance fuel efficiency with everyday usability. The 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid and CR-V Hybrid stand out in this category.
This model continues its reputation as a reliable and stylish sedan but adds a cutting-edge two-motor hybrid system paired with a 2.0-litre Atkinson-cycle engine. The result is a potent blend of power (204 horsepower and 247 lb-ft of torque) and efficiency, achieving around 5.0 L/100km in urban settings and 5.7 L/100km on highways.
As for the CR-V Hybrid, it enhances Honda's popular compact SUV line by combining a similar 2.0-litre Atkinson-cycle engine with dual electric motors. This setup not only boosts power but also improves fuel economy to 6.0 L/100km in cities and 6.9 L/100km on highways. It's an ideal option for families needing space with car-like fuel economy. Moreover, the CR-V Hybrid offers over 2,000 litres of total cargo space, about the same as the gas-powered CR-V.
If you are not ready to make the switch to a hybrid powertrain, Honda can still provide you with a very spacious and practical SUV without worrying about fuel costs. The 2024 Honda CR-V powered by the 1.5-litre turbocharged engine is one of the most efficient compact SUVs on the market with an average fuel economy rating of 8.4 litres per 100 km. That's with all-wheel drive as well. The 2024 Honda HR-V, smaller but still spacious with 688 litres of cargo space, also shines with a fuel economy rating of under 8.0 litres per 100 km on the highway with all-wheel drive.
Renowned for its fuel economy, the Honda Civic remains a top choice among compact cars. This model appeals to a wide array of tastes and financial plans. Its standard 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine achieves an impressive combined fuel consumption of 6.9 L/100km. For those desiring greater efficiency coupled with dynamic performance, the Touring version comes equipped with a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine that is not only more powerful, but also offers nearly the exact same fuel economy rating. The 2025 Honda Civic coming later this year will be even more efficient and will also welcome a hybrid version.
Regardless of the type of vehicle you are looking for, or whether you prefer a hybrid, fully electric, or traditional engine, the 2024 Honda vehicle lineup as a fuel-efficient model waiting for you.
