4 Used Cars That Get Great Gas Mileage

2016 Volkswagen Jetta 1.4T S

The first car on our list is the 2016 Volkswagen Jetta 1.4T S. The Jetta is a mid-sized sedan that offers one of the best fuel economies for a gas-only car. The Jetta comes with a 1.4L, 4-cylinder engine, and a 5-speed manual transmission.
