The most fuel-efficient car tested by the What Car? True MPG team over the last 12 months – topping more than 200 other models – was the Seat Leon 1.6 TDI 110 SE Ecomotive 5dr, managing a real-world average fuel economy figure of 63.2mpg.
Since launching True MPG in 2012, more than 600 cars have been assessed in real-world conditions achieving economy figures that are an average of 20% lower than the official figures.
Even the Seat’s table-topping figure was below its claimed figure of 85.6mpg – a result of manufacturers being forced by legislation to test their cars in laboratory conditions.
