Southfield,MI,USA -Wards Auto, by John Sousanis -12 April 2013: -- The average fuel economy of light vehicles delivered in March climbed to a new high of 24.2 mpg (9.7 L/100 km) on the WardsAuto Fuel Economy Index, a 0.5% increase over year-ago and a 15.1% gain on the base rating established in fourth-quarter 2007... March was the third consecutive month in which the industry broke the previous Index record... The benchmark FEI score was achieved in the face of strong sales of vehicles in the less-efficient segments: pickups (16.7 mpg [14.1 L/100 km]), SUVs (17.6 mpg [13.4 L/100 km]) and Large CUVs (19.4 mpg [12.1 L/100 km])... However, Light Trucks collectively achieved a record 20.2 mpg (11.6 L/100 km) rating on the index, with the help of best-ever scores in three light-truck segments, including a 25.3 mpg (9.3 L/100 km) rating for Small CUVs... Cars scored 27.6 mpg (8.5 L/100 km) for the third straight month...Labels: fuel economy
