100% Q: What year was the average fuel economy for American vehicles the highest?
Someone told me there was a year in the 80s when the average fuel economy of all the cars on the road was 30mpg. Is that true? Does anyone know where I can find this information, a chart perhaps? I'd also like to know what the average is this year.
A:In the past 30 years, the EPA has forced the fuel companies to change their fuel to meet pollution standards. Each time it changes fuel economy goes down. In 2005 the Hyundai Accent had a 35-37mpg rating in 2006 it was lowered (as were all cars) to 33-35 It had nothing to do with the cars themselves. The oil companies raised the ethanol content in the fuel. The more alcohol you have the worse the fuel mileage is. which is funny because, it costs less to make and we are paying more for driving less. So the mileage data you will get from the 80s, will not compare today's fuels or ratings
