The SUVs With the Best Gas Mileage You Can Buy in 2022

With SUVs increasingly becoming the default choice for single-car families across the U.S., automakers are working hard to make them more fuel efficient. Last year's 20 most fuel-efficient SUVs averaged an impressive 55.5 mpg combined; this year, the 20 most fuel-efficient SUVs bump up their combined average to 60.9 mpg. And that figure doesn't include the increasing availability of electric SUVs. Last year there were about nine SUV EVs on sale. This year? Seventeen and counting. Provided you're not ready to make the leap to an electric SUV (all of which would make this list), what follows are the 20 SUVs that achieve the best gas mileage on the market in 2022.

But before we dig in, some quick housekeeping. Our list of the most fuel-efficient SUVs for the 2022 model year was gleaned using EPA test data, and all vehicles are ranked in order from 20 to 1 using their combined mpg/mpg-e figure. When we had a tie, we then factored in electric-only range (if applicable) and highway fuel economy to break it.

Plug-in hybrid, hybrid, gas, and diesel SUVs were all eligible to make this list, but as you'll soon see, plug-in hybrid and hybrid SUVs dominate. As previously mentioned, the 17 electric SUVs on sale in the U.S as of this writing weren't included. In case you're curious, they are:

  • Tesla Model Y (up to 129 mpg-e)
  • Hyundai Kona Electric (120 mpg-e)
  • Kia EV6 (up to 117 mpg-e)
  • Chevrolet Bolt EUV (115 mpg-e)
  • Hyundai Ioniq 5 (up to 114 mpg-e)
  • Kia Niro EV (112 mpg-e)
  • Tesla Model X (up to 105 mpg-e)
  • Ford Mustang Mach-E (up to 101 mpg-e)
  • Volkswagen ID4 (up to 99 mpg-e)
  • Audi Q4 E-Tron (up to 95 mpg-e)
  • Mazda MX-30 (92 mpg-e)
  • Volvo C40 Recharge (87 mpg-e)
  • Volvo XC40 Recharge (85 mpg-e)
  • Audi E-Tron (up to 78 mpg-e)
  • Jaguar I-Pace (76 mpg-e)
  • Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo (up to 76 mpg-e)
  • Rivian R1S (69 mpg-e)

Without further ado, here are the 20 most fuel-efficient SUVs you can buy today, in order from worst to first.
