Fuel Economy Guide The 2023 Fuel Economy Guide was recently released by the US Department of Energy and Environmental Protection Agency. You can access the guide by scanning the QR code below. Paper guides are no longer mailed to dealers. According to EPA Regulations, this guide must be displayed where new vehicles with a weight rating under 8,500 pounds are for sale. Dealers selling new vehicles must also provide free guides upon customer request. This can be honored with either a paper copy or an electronic version on a computer in the display area. The purpose of the guide is to create a benchmark to compare vehicles based on their efficiency. Factors that contribute to Fuel Economy ratings include but are not limited to: • Speed • Rate of acceleration • Air conditioning usage • Temperature operation An in-depth analysis of the mpg rating determinants can be found at https://www.epa.gov/fueleconomy. With weekly updates, this highly relevant source is reliable because it incorporates the Energy Information Administration's current national average prices for gasoline and diesel fuel. A useful feature created by Fueleconomy.gov, is a widget you can add to your website or social media page. This resource streamlines your potential customers’ shopping experience and makes the process much easier. • Enhanced Electronic Access: The 2023 Fuel Economy Guide will be published in electronic format only. You can download the latest Fuel Economy Guide from the government’s fuel economy website by scanning the QR code below or visiting the dealer page. Print copies from the electronic file as needed. The online Guide will be updated periodically to include newly released vehicle models and current fuel cost estimates. • Display Signage: Dealers can download and print a sign/poster by scrolling down on the dealer page, using the QR code below, to place in their display area directing customers to the Fuel Economy Guide (this is optional and not required by law).
