Two separate reports highlight the ongoing improvement in vehicle technologies and the growing trend toward consumers purchasing more fuel efficient vehicles in the US and in Europe. Those who say fuel economy is very important expect to get twelve miles more per gallon (mpg) from their next vehicle than those who say it is not important.
Second, they estimated fuel savings using the FHWA data on vehicle miles, fuel use and miles per gallon (mpg). Second, the full effects of fuel economy improvements are conditional on how consumers value fuel economy in their vehicle purchase decisions and whether the improvements made have been cost effective or not.
