Experts reviewed the most popular ones in Russia and chose the most “gluttonous” ones. Find out right now which cars stop at gas stations most often when traveling around the city.
UAZ Patriot
SUV from Ulyanovsk with a 2.7-liter gasoline engine and a power of 134.6 horsepower ready to consume at least 11.5 liters of gasoline when driving on the highway. The company tactfully does not disclose data on consumption in the city, but, according to reviews from owners, the Patriot in this mode consumes at least 15 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers.
Chevrolet Niva
Niva is available with one 1.7-liter engine producing 80 horsepower. The car easily consumes at a measured highway pace from 8.4 liters of gasoline per 100 kilometers. The SUV, produced at the joint venture of AvtoVAZ and GM in Tolyatti, boasts a declared appetite of 13.2 liters per 100 kilometers in the city.
Toyota Camry
The sedan from the St. Petersburg plant is distinguished by its love of consuming fuel only with a V6 engine with a capacity of 249 horsepower - in the city this version will require at least 13.2 liters per 100 kilometers. But a Camry with a 2-liter power unit with a capacity of 150 horsepower consumes from 5.6 liters on the highway, and in the city consumption will be about 10 liters.
Lada 4x4
In the city, the car consumes at least 12.2 liters per 100 kilometers. The SUV, which is popular not only in Russia, but also in some European countries, is more economical on the highway - consumption starts from 8.3 liters
Nissan Almera
Nissan claims around 5.8 liters per 100 kilometers on the highway for the Almera with a manual transmission and its proven 1.6-liter, 102-horsepower engine. In the city, a sedan with a 4-speed automatic transmission will consume 2 times more - 11.9 liters for every 100 kilometers.
Kia Sportage
The Korean crossover, assembled for Russia in Kaliningrad, with all-wheel drive and a 150 horsepower engine in urban conditions is capable of consuming 11.8 liters of gasoline per 100 kilometers. On the highway, the Sportage's consumption can drop to 6.1 liters.
Toyota RAV4
The RAV4 crossover, which received registration at the Toyota Motor plant in St. Petersburg in August, is distinguished by its modest appetite on the highway. It consumes from 6.4 liters per 100 kilometers with an engine producing 146 horsepower. The fastest RAV4 with a power unit with 180 horsepower and a CVT will “drink” at least 11.6 liters of gasoline per 100 kilometers in the city
Renault Duster
The model from Renault will require at least 11.3 liters of fuel in the city per 100 kilometers, but only in the version with all-wheel drive, automatic transmission and a 2-liter engine. The front-wheel drive Duster with a 1.6-liter power unit producing 114 horsepower can handle 6.3 liters when traveling outside the city.
Nissan X-Trail
The X-Trail with a 2.5-liter gasoline power unit with a capacity of 171 horsepower will require at least 11.3 liters per 100 kilometers in urban driving. The consumption of a car with a less powerful engine (144 horsepower) on the highway will be from 6.1 liters per 100 kilometers.
Renault Logan
Logan with a new engine from the Renault-Nissan alliance with a capacity of 113 horsepower is capable of spending from 5.6 liters per 100 kilometers. However, a model with a 102-horsepower unit and a 4-speed automatic transmission will require at least 10.9 liters per 100 kilometers in the city.
Volume and power mean not only torque and reliability, but also consumption. Even the most ideal roads, uniform driving conditions and unearthly measurement techniques are unable to bring the numbers back to normal if there is a herd of five thousand under the hood, and the working volume is no longer measured in liters, but in gallons. And if the passport 4 liters per hundred often hide 7 real ones, then judging what the “live” consumption of today’s participants in our top will be is an activity that can cause depressive syndrome.
Last time, the entry threshold for cars was 4 liters per 100 kilometers. How much should we charge her today? After thinking about it, we decided that it would be nice to throw in ten. Plus or minus...
7th place: Range Rover / Range Rover Sport
But in order not to rush headlong into the pool, let's start with “economical” cars - like the Range Rover, for example. Its five-liter compressor engine clearly hints that it will not be boring with it - neither on the road nor at the gas station. But how much?
So much so that you will refuel while wiping away tears of happiness. This aristocrat, in both the extended-luxury and sporty-crazy version, deigns to drink 12.8 liters of 95-grade gasoline from the tank for every 100 kilometers of travel. In return, it promises 525 horsepower and 625 Nm of torque. But if you enter the city...

This is your own fault - the aristocracy will not be modest in its requests. In the urban cycle, consumption immediately increases to 18 liters - and this is only according to the passport. How long a tank holding 105 liters of fuel will really last for you will be decided not even by your brain, but by your right leg. And sometimes they will have little connection with each other...
6th place: Chevrolet Tahoe
Here's another modest guy who didn't even reach our benchmark of 14 liters per hundred in the combined cycle. The Chevrolet Tahoe offers even more than the Range Rover: there are up to eight seats, the engine capacity is one more than the Skoda Fabia and is 6.2 liters, horsepower... and, sorry, there are only 409 of them. But the torque is almost the same - 610 Nm, and this despite the fact that there is no turbine or compressor - American approach states that any problem can be solved with a liter or two of working volume.
In the photo: Chevrolet Tahoe "2014–present"
This approach comes at a cost—literally. In the combined cycle, Tahoe will pump at least 13.4 liters of AI-95 from the tank, and if there are pedestrians, houses and traffic lights around, it will get nervous and ask for 18.3. And there are also suspicions that if these houses and pedestrians are on planet Earth, then even 18.3 liters will not be enough.
5th place: Toyota Land Cruiser 200
One day an Englishman, an American and a Japanese meet at a gluttony competition... It sounds like the beginning of a joke, but for Land Cruiser 200 owners who have chosen, well, this anecdote with the addition of an international team of gluttons will be a little sad.
In the photo: Toyota Land Cruiser (200) "2015–present" And he will be a bit sad for two reasons. And the first is not even fuel consumption, but the fact that the 5.7-liter gasoline V8 labeled 3UR-FE did not go to the “200”, remaining the prerogative of the Lexus LX 570, and the 4.6-liter 1UR-FE available under the hood has almost 60 less power despite the fact that the savings on gasoline are by no means so obvious. Judge for yourself: pay for 309 hp. and 439 Nm of torque become 13.9 liters per 100 km in the combined cycle and 18.2 in the city cycle, which with a slight movement of the foot turns your pockets into elegant gaps. The only consolation here is that Japanese units are more unpretentious in food and are quite happy when they are treated to regular 92-octane gasoline, provided that this gasoline is unlimited.
4th place: Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8
Another American confidently wedged himself between the Japanese and the Japanese, who is absolutely sure that gasoline is just a means of achieving the desired speed and the desired concentration of adrenaline and dopamine in the blood. And he, too, is confident in the American way that this does not require turbines, compressors or tricky settings - to drive, it is enough for the engine volume to be 1.41 gallons, or 6.4 liters.

In the photo: Under the hood of the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 "2012–13 And we must also remember to feed this engine - not to feed it, but to generously satisfy its constant hunger. This will require 14 liters of 95 in the combined driving cycle, but in the city even the politically correct passport consumption figure broke the 20 liter mark, jumping to 20.7. And in these conditions, 93.5 liters that fit into the tank is just breakfast...
3rd place: Lexus LX 570
This brother of the “200” received the notorious 5.7-liter 3UR-FE with a V-shaped arrangement of eight cylinders and clearly boasts about it in its index. It boasts no less of a power of 367 hp, a torque of 530 Nm and rich equipment, coupled with a sleek appearance. However, he also has some traits that you wouldn’t brag about publicly...
In the photo: Lexus LX 570 "2015–present. One of these features is consumption indicators. The combined one exceeded our benchmark of 14 liters, settling at 14.4. The urban one is slightly less modest than that of the aforementioned “big Indian”: 20.2 liters per hundred. And again, the only thing the owner can console himself with at a gas station is that he is not overpaying for fuel, at least in terms of the cost of a liter: AI-92 burns in the cylinders without any problems.
2nd place: Infiniti QX80
The Infiniti QX80 was surprisingly able to combine the features of both the Japanese and the Americans, who were located in the previous lines. Its engine is not supercharged, the displacement of the engine under the hood exceeds 1.2 gallons, and the dimensions of the car itself are awe-inspiring even by US standards. At the same time, it bears a Japanese name and has a distinctly Japanese design, and its consumption is as high as background radiation Fukushima.
Pictured: Infiniti QX80 5.6 "2015 However, in such matters it is better to operate with numbers - fortunately, they are visible to the naked eye. Consumption in the combined cycle is at least 14.5 liters per hundred kilometers, and the urban one does not fall below 20.6. Is this a lot with 5.6 liters of volume, 405 hp? power and 560 Nm of torque? This can be discussed - after all, you need to keep yourself occupied with something while the hundred-liter tank is being filled...
1st place: Mercedes-Benz G 65 AMG
But this guy doesn't care about anything. The fact that you can’t be so fast and powerful if you were designed in the seventies of the last century as an army transport. The fact that 12 cylinders and 630 horsepower in a V-twin engine is too much for an SUV and too little for a 3.2-ton gross weight. And the fact that it is better to drive with all this monstrous charge only in a straight line. He doesn't really care what you think about him.
In the photo: Mercedes-Benz G 65 AMG "2012–15 It is impossible to make friends with him: you either go limp and resign yourself to the fact that you are in an adamantium box on nuclear fuel, or try to comply by having breakfast with barbell pancakes with condensed milk. But in both cases, you must have enough courage to understand that the stated figure of 17 liters per hundred in the combined cycle is as reassuring as if it were written in meters on the altimeter of your plane flying over an erupting volcano. Mercedes-Benz wisely doesn't list city consumption figures (but rumor has it that it added one gray hair to Chuck Norris's beard).
To you about the most economical cars on the Russian market, which can boast of the lowest fuel consumption. Today we will talk about the complete opposite - cars officially presented on the Russian market, which, in the literal sense of the word, “eat” fuel in liters.
It is worth noting that our ranking of the top most uneconomical cars in Russia can easily be changed into top most "gluttonous" SUVs on the Russian market, since it included cars belonging exclusively to the popular SUV segment. Are you ready? Let's begin! We also note the fact that the actual amount of fuel consumption below the described machines can easily cause depressive syndrome.
7. Range Rover/Range Rover Sport
Land Rover Range Rover
Photo: Land RoverPerhaps, let's start our impromptu hit parade with “economical” cars, which, compared to other cars, include British SUVs and. It is quite natural that the 5.0-liter compressor unit that these models use, by definition, cannot have a modest appetite.
The minimum fuel consumption of British SUVs (not lower than AI-95) is about 12.5 liters for every hundred kilometers. What in return? You get a herd of 525 horsepower, as well as an amazing torque of 625 Newton meters. However, it is worth remembering that if you wish to travel on Range Rover/Range Rover Sport in full, then the fuel consumption rate will be ... about 18 liters. The car's tank will hold 105 liters of fuel.
6. Chevrolet Tahoe
Photo: Chevrolet
And here is another “modest guy” from America. In the engine compartment of a full-size SUV Chevrolet Tahoe a 6.2-liter unit is located. Its power is 409 hp. Torque – 610 Nm. The declared fuel consumption (AI-95) in the combined cycle is 13.4 liters per 100 km.
In the combined cycle, the Japanese “rogue” is capable of “eating” about 13.9 liters of fuel per 100 km. Using an SUV in the city Toyota Land Cruiser 200 will lead to the fact that its engine begins to consume at least 18.2 liters of fuel. That is, the popular frame car can easily make elegant holes in your pockets or wallets.
4. Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8

Photo: JeepEven without officially stated data, we can safely say that the “charged” SUV, in the engine compartment of which there is a 6.4-liter engine, has a rather immodest appetite!
In the combined cycle, according to the manufacturer, SUV Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 consumes 14 liters of AI-95 gasoline. In turn, in the urban cycle the powerful unit of the car “eats” at least twenty liters of fuel.
3. Lexus LX 570
Photo: Lexus
The premium “brother” Toyota Land Cruiser 200 is equipped with a 5.7-liter 8-cylinder engine. The output of this unit is 367 hp and the torque is 530 Nm. Already in the standard version, the SUV flaunts a sleek appearance and richer equipment. But!
In the combined cycle, this car is capable of “destroying” at least 14.4 liters of fuel. If we talk about the urban cycle, then the fuel consumption rate will be 20.2 liters for every hundred kilometers. The only good thing is that the car engine is able to “digest” AI-92 fuel.
2. Infiniti QX80

Another “sperm whale” in our rating top most "gluttonous" cars in Russia- premium Japanese SUV. This car's engine capacity exceeds 1.2 gallons. Let's have some jokes! According to Russian owners of the Infiniti QX80, the fuel consumption of this SUV is “as high as the radiation background of Fukushima.”
As for the specifics. Combined cycle fuel consumption of an SUV Infiniti QX80 will not drop below 14.5 liters per hundred kilometers. In the city this figure is ... not less than 20.6 liters. Let us remind you that the car’s 5.6-liter engine generates 405 hp. and 560 Nm of torque.
1. Mercedes-Benz G65 AMG
Mercedes-Benz G65 AMG
Photo: Mercedes-BenzFinally, the leader of the rating top most "gluttonous" and uneconomical cars on the Russian market! Meet! “Charged” version of the iconic SUV Mercedes-Benz G-Class- (or Mercedes-AMG G65 - whichever is more convenient for you).
Under the hood of the “charged” Gelendvagen there is a 12-cylinder engine generating 630 horsepower. Without a doubt, both the car and its owner “don’t give a damn what others think about it”! In the combined cycle, this car “eats” about 17 liters per hundred. However, in other modes this indicator may be .....
Fuel consumption is one of those things that worries the vast majority of motorists when choosing new car. There are quite a lot of cars that cannot boast of even moderate fuel consumption. Fortunately, next to such gluttons there have always been and will be cars that are worth praising and extolling in every possible way just because they do not spend many liters “jogging” along the highway.
1. Peugeot 208
A car that rightfully bears the title of one of the most modest fuel consumers as of 2018. Its 1.6-liter power unit produces only 75 horsepower. It is curious that the car has quite good speed performance. The car operates on a 6-speed mechanical box transmission For 100 km, the car consumes about 2 liters in the combined cycle. The tank holds 43 liters of fuel.
2. Vauxhall Corsa
British small car, which is also famous for its efficiency. Its 1.3-liter engine produces 75 horsepower. In return, this car will consume about 2.6 liters of fuel per 100 km. The car also boasts a comfortable interior in which absolutely all participants in the trip can sit comfortably.
3. Volkswagen Golf
Where would we be without Volkswagen Golf? Cars of this line have always been ready to declare themselves as the least voracious road users. The 1.4 liter engine produces an output power of 125 horsepower. Works with a 6-speed manual transmission. The car has good speed performance. For 100 km of travel it “eats” 2.6 liters of fuel.
4. Kia Rio CRDi
Kia cars in recent years are becoming increasingly popular, also due to their fairly modest fuel consumption. Although the CRDi's speed performance leaves much to be desired, fuel consumption in the city is 3.6 liters and on the highway - 2.6 liters, which makes this guest from the east one of the best candidates for travel.
5. Renault Clio
If you need a car with low fuel consumption in the city, then you should take the Renault Clio. In the combined cycle, the car consumes 2.7 liters of fuel. In the city, fuel consumption rises to 3.4 liters. The car also cannot boast of speed performance, but it doesn’t need it.
6. Skoda Octavia Greenline
A model that began its history back in 1959 and since then (almost invariably) has pleased motorists with low fuel consumption. With a 1.6 liter engine, the car gives a consumption of 2.8. Output power reaches 110 horsepower. In order to achieve such indicators, car designers had to resort to many tricks.
7. Ford Fiesta
Finally, a car like the Ford Fiesta deserves mention. It is worth noting that this car is diesel. Nevertheless, the consumption is admirable - 2.9 liters.
Protection Agency environment(EPA) has published data on the average fuel consumption of cars from around the world. From them you can find out which companies' cars are the most uneconomical and only waste gasoline.
Compared to last year, cars have become more economical; on average, consumption has decreased by 0.15 l/100 km. However, it is interesting to learn about the companies that produce the most “gluttonous” cars.
The obtained figures are the average fuel consumption for different models of each manufacturer, taking into account the number of copies produced.
No. 5. Toyota
In the ranking of the top 5 most uneconomical cars in the world, Toyota occupies 5th position with an average fuel consumption of 9.3 l/100 km. This may seem surprising since the company builds amazingly efficient cars like the Prius. The main reason is the huge number of Toyota SUVs and pickups that are popular all over the world.
No. 4. Mercedes-Benz
Over the past year, Mercedes has improved fuel economy slightly. Average consumption by different models amounted to 10.0 l/100 km, and this result is equally far behind the main competitor from BMW - by a whole liter. The main reason is large number popular Mercedes-Benz turbocharged models.
No. 3. Ford (Ford and Lincoln)
The American company, which also actively uses turbocharging to improve the environmental performance of its engines, occupies third position in the ranking of the most uneconomical. The average consumption of manufactured models is 10.2 l/100 km.
No. 2. GM (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC)
General Motors is one of the companies whose average fuel economy has gotten worse over the year. The reasons are the same as for Toyota. The characteristics of the concern’s models remained the same, the production volumes of “gluttonous” pickup trucks simply increased.
No. 1. FCA (Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Jeep and Ram)
It is not surprising that the company, which still produces large American muscle cars, the Dodge Challenger and Dodge Charger, “won” in the ranking of the most wasteful. The manufacturer's average consumption for all models is 10.8 l/100 km. But the company still deserves credit for improving efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions more than its competitors over the year.
If you need to choose a specific model, a review will be useful.
