Driving a Toyota Yaris 1.4 D-4D, Andrew Anders and Gary Luton managed to squeeze-out 84.66 miles to the gallon, and the stiff competition, in the 2008 ALD Fleet World MPG Marathon. The two winning drivers took routes across Britain, over many different types of road and driving conditions, during the 400 mile challenge.
The winners for the last two years, in a Toyota Aygo, James Sutherland and Richard Hill, improved their previous performance in the same 1.0-litre petrol engined car from 78.39 mpg to 82.39 mpg.
This is the thing: when you drive a highly economical vehicle like the Yaris, how you drive it will significantly improve (perhaps by up to as much as one hundred percent) its performance by achieving reduced fuel consumption and, therefore, lower CO2 emissions over each journey.
