As a fellow driver going to the gas station, you may be wondering why gas prices have gone up these past few weeks right? If you don\u2019t own a smart device or follow the news, there is an all out war happening in Eastern Europe between Russia and Ukraine. Russia has decided to invade Ukraine, causing world leaders such as Canada and USA to impose sanctions on Russia for these uncivilized actions. Since Russia is a big shareholder of oil, its natural for prices to rise since most of the oil is being used to aid Russia in the war (Mendoza,2022). With gas prices rising over the past few weeks, drivers must ask themselves whether its time for a lifestyle change with the war not losing momentum in the coming weeks, maybe Its time to look into getting a new vehicle. With gas prices rising, it could be time to look into new models of vehicles that maximize performance but minimize gas usage. Below are five cars listed below that can help drivers understand which vehicle is the most gas efficient car.

Honda has always had a knack on being environmentally friendly, which is why HONDA took the initiative to create the \u201cECON\u201d button on hybrid models, this was first introduced in 2009 (Carcody,2021). Honda created Hybrid models with the intention of saving gas when ever possible. According to research, the difference between Hybrid and non-Hybrid comes down to the core of the engine itself. Non-Hybrid models power the engine by gas usage, hybrid models will use both the original engine, but can switch to an electric engine, allowing cars to save on gas a lot quicker in comparison to non-hybrid models. With hybrid models introducing the \u201cECON\u201d<\/a> button mentioned above, \u201cECON\u201d allows HONDA vehicles to save gas through various pathways such as cruise control. When ever the vehicle is on cruise control, the vehicle will switch from the gas engine to the electric engine, causing you to save money on gas (Honda of Kirkland,2020). According to research, investing in a HONDA accord hybrid is the right way to go with the Accord Hybrid allowing consumers to save 48 MPG in the United States, which means you can save up to $350.00 per year (DeMichiel,2021). The Honda Accord<\/a> uses the \u201cElectric-Continuously Variable Transmission or better known as E-CVT, which is one of the latest hybrid engines up to date, saving more money than before, it has a 2.0 litre capacity, 16 valve and a four-cylinder engine allowing efficiency without compromising performance (HONDA,2022). <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
