10 Cars That Are More Efficient Than a Prius

6. Mitsubishi i-MiEV

Topping the smart is Mitsubishi’s strangely named i-MiEV. However you say it, aye-me’ev, aye-my-E-V, aye-meev, the meaning and pronunciation have been lost to history, this tiny four-door delivers a combined consumption score of 112 MPGe. In the city it’s rated at 126, while its highway figure is 99.

It’s powered by a water-cooled AC, permanent-magnet electric motor that cranks out 66 hp and 145 lb-ft of torque. This little dynamo is juiced by a 16 kWh lithium-ion battery that provides a claimed range of 62 miles.
