Anyone with some data to post?
I am looking to replace my old SUV (Hyundai Santa Fe at 290K) ... doing maybe 11 l/100 km or 21 miles per us gallon. I would like some options when this vehicle dies. It may die tomorrow, it could take another 2 years ...
I think I NEED ground clearance more than 4 inches (honda civic) and can survive a gravel road at 55 mph, a railroad crossing at 60 mph. Would like electric or hybrid.
So far, Mitsubishi's Outlander Plugin hybrid looks reasonable. $55K canadian, no towing. Test drive went OK but it didn't scream 'BUY ME'.
If the 2019 Chevy Silverado will do 6-ish liters per 100 km or 40-ish miles per US gallon ... after warming up of course .. and it tows like a real truck ... I should add it to the list.

39.2mpg @ 70mph is hard to swallow. Independent testing shows most if not all EPA rated vehicles getting their highway rating between 65-70mph. No way the EPA gives this thing that kind of highway mpg.
