Fuel Economy AND Space- Not a Myth

See 5 West Herr SUVs That Offer The Best Fuel Efficiency

If you're buying an SUV you most likely value space in your vehicle.  Most drivers value gas mileage too. Now, the two are not mutually exclusive. Plenty of 2011 SUVs offer drivers the storage capability they desire and won't hurt them at the gas pump.

With that in mind we bring you 5 SUVs from West Herr brands that wont hurt your wallet to fill up:  

Toyota RAV4

Miles Per Gallon (MPG)- 28 hwy, 22 city, 24 overall

Popular Mechanics dubbed this the "ever popular RAV4" as it is a big seller.  One of the main reasons is of course it's fuel efficiency.  Plus Toyota is working on an all electric version, so the RAV4 is sure to appear on lists like this again.  

Subaru Outback Wagon 4WD

MPG-  29 hwy, 22 city, 24 overall

Popular Mechanics dubbed the Outback their "most versatile car."  They credited the Outback's excellent handling thanks to Subaru's all-wheel-drive technology.  So not only is the Outback fuel efficient, it handles in multiple situations too.  Can't beat that.  

 

Kia Sportage

MPG- 31 hwy, 22 city, 25 overall

Chevrolet Equinox FWD 

MPG- 32 hwy, 22 city, 26 overall

Take note that the Equinox has the best non-hybrid highway mileage we've listed.  Plus, owners rave about the vehicles room, comfort and overall driving experience.  Chevy also employs direct injection technology, which is good for a 3% gain in fuel efficiency on its own.
