Edmunds editors conducted real-world testing of the Chevy Volt, Kia Optima Hybrid, Hyundai Elantra, Volkswagen Jetta TDI, and the Fiat 500 through country/city roads & the highway to find out which car has the best miles per gallon number and is ultimately the cheapest to run.

  • @mankaman3 if we were talking annual fuel consumption for a driver who drives less than 35 miles a day, which do you think would win? my comment still stands. its like comparing a 4x4 to a 4x2 in an off road test. the volt was designed specifically for ^. turbo diesels are great fuel sippers and have been for years, volt is on a different playing field via electric car with gas generator.

  • Hands down the Volt is the most impressive of the bunch.

  • @rs2p00nz in the junk yard

  • @zr1vetteman09 on a class of its own, it almost got beat by a diesel which isn't a hybrid or a plug in! if the jetta was a plug in it would be worlds ahead of the volt.. great car though.

  • optima hybrid=fail

  • @mrlopez2005  Corrections What were you thinking!

  • next time please include the Toyota Prius all cars were in a catagory of there own imposiable to compare a small car with a sedan and a diesel Vs. an electric what were you thing!

  • The volt is a class all its own, it was designed to meet the need of the average americans daily commute to work without using any fuel. Then when they wanted to take a longer trip, they put some gas in it and go. This car doesnt really belong in a test against these eco cars and hybrids since it has a completely different design and purpose.

  • I have driven and a friend owns the CRZ and he averages like 45, pretty sad for a hybrid

  • Lol at all the butthurt people with hard-ons for prii.
