We all know Nigeria’s erratic fuel price situation – one moment it’s up and the next it’s down. The current removal of fuel subsidy has helped stabilize the price a bit, but it’s still on the high side compared to the low prices we once enjoyed. At this point, fuel efficient cars are more or less a blessing to Nigerians.

True that..Honda civic is very duel efficient.
I thou I'd see Mercedes on this list lol

Where is Toyota Prius the king of fuel efficient cars? Where is Chevrolet Malibu and ford fusion?

Even the Civic would find it hard entering the list of most efficient cars now.

Maybe you should change the thread to most efficient cars available on Nigerian roads that you have seen or know of

On point.

Volkswagen Golf should be on that list

Nissan Sunny
