1. Chevrolet Cruze ECO -- The gas mileage king as of April 2011 is the Chevrolet Cruze, but not with every model. Choose the Cruze ECO, which comes equipped with a 1.4-liter turbocharged four cylinder engine and your car will get 42 mpg highway, 28 mpg city. Other models also offer excellent fuel economy, delivering 35 mpg or better on the open road.
2. Smart ForTwo -- When the ForTwo was released in 2008, it immediately became the gas mileage leader. Rated at 41 mpg highway, 33 mpg city, this diminutive two seater is the ultimate city car and value leader with a base sticker price of $11,500. This car is the only one in this group to be powered by a three cylinder engine.
3. Hyundai Elantra -- No other car can boast the same fuel economy whether paired with a manual or automatic transmission. New for 2011, the Elantra gets 40 mpg highway, 29 mpg city and offers seating for five adults. Styling for the Elantra mimics the slick look of the midsize Sonata.
4. Ford Fiesta SFE -- You'll need to order the SFE model to enjoy top of the range fuel economy, but the subcompact Fiesta achieves that feat when equipped with a six-speed automatic transmission. The EPA rates the Fiesta at 40 mpg highway, 29 city; other models get as much as 38 mpg highway.
5. Ford Focus SFE -- New for 2012, the compact Focus SFE matches the Fiesta's 40 mpg highway figure while delivering 28 mpg around town. Active shutters and an automatic transmission help this "super fuel economy" vehicle deliver some of the best fuel numbers in its class.
