No car that in that category gets anywhere "close to 50" MPG. The others of comparable size and shape are the Fit, the Rio, the Yaris.

The others get somewhat better fuel economy in city driving, because their A/T's are programmed differently. But the Chevy Aveo (made in Korea) can be bought for thousands less than the others. So if you want a car with a lower purchase price that gets great highway MPG (but lousy city MPG) it may be a good choice.
