A lower combined number means the vehicle uses less fuel. The city figure is the stop-and-go test. The highway figure is the steadier, higher-speed test. The combined figure is the one to compare first.
Electric vehicles in this catalogue show the gasoline-equivalent combined rating when NRCan publishes it, plus the electric range in kilometres. A plug-in hybrid has both a fuel figure and a shorter electric range.
These are laboratory ratings for new light-duty vehicles offered for sale in Canada. They are not a road test by Vehonix, and they do not include cargo weight, winter tires, or a heavy right foot.
