BMW's Unsung Heroes of MPG


Items marked green qualify for Checkered Flag's "Heroes" & "Unsung Heroes" of Gas Mileage.

Instead of just looking at MPG, our heroes are best described by what they can do for you. Our heroes can travel over 400 miles on one tank of gas with highway driving, take you to the pump less than 2.5 times a month on average driving, and cost less than $150 month on $4 per gallon of gasoline per the average driver (12,000 miles per year).

Check out some of our "Unsung Heroes":  vehicles that typically are not thought of when looking for the best in fuel-efficiency.  Look for the  logo.  The logo represents vehicles that are typically synonymous with fuel efficiency.

We realize everyone has different needs (luxury, space, hauling), but decided to put the whole Checkered Flag line-up in one easy place for you.  It is tough to compare a small Hybrid to a large pick-up, so please speak to your Checkered Flag representative if you have any questions.
