10. Honda HR-V 1.6 i-DTEC

70.6mpg

Honda is no stranger to economy records – a Civic Tourer currently holds the world record for it, returning over 100mpg! The HR-V uses the same engine as that car, but buyers are likely to see a little less than the 100.31mpg the team achieved. Still 70.6mpg is nothing to sniff at, and the HR-V’s massive boot and clever folding seats ensure it’s a practical load-lugger as well as an economical one.
