What is the most fuel-efficient SUV?

[salman_w]

Brother my logic is within legality. Australian vehicles use it for protection too and with our sweet always innocent motorcycle drivers around no car is safe. At Least they back off doing their crazy maneuvers when they see that the only person who will get financially of physically hurt is them. I do not intend to go and hit random strangers with steel bumpers. Front bumper of Revo is crap. If a bike hits you while car is standing its bumper lower grill hangs like a toy. That's no crumple zone just bad fixtures and build quality.
You are very right about the lawlessness in our country and that is why people do rash driving because the know they will get away with it. In pakistan when people get e challan they just don't pay unless their vehicle gets confiscated and then they tell the police that they are too poor to pay. Both poor and rich benefit from the system, only law abiding citizens who pay the actual tax for this country gets milled in our lawless society. Everyday one has to dive like an owl with eyes to their forehead just to save their hard earned possession from things like public transport and bikes.
I have seen the difference first hand in peoples lawfulless with the car one drives. In a Mehran everyone will honk needlessly, in a corolla things get just a smidge better but in revo or prado or cruiser people start to abide law and one doesn't have to think much outside of abiding the law themselves. I am also against tailgating or illegal mods.
Sorry for the the big rant but brother these things have become a need in pakistan as if you repair a revo vs an alto the difference is huge. Prevention is better than cure. Unless the law changes and everyone behaves.
Also wrapping is a thing now even with revos and fortuners people are PPFing their cars the moment they leave showroom for the very same reason.

By that rationale

You should install spikes on the ranch-hand bumper and a machine gun on the bonnet, and final touch of a rocket launcher in bed.

The bumpers of all new cars are designed to literally fall off the car on light impact, its a safety mandate now.

Thanks for the comment but i maintain that these bumpers are not illegal by law.

[Xulfiqar]

In Pakistan law isnt sacred, its a hired hooker.

You can do whatever you like to your vehicle and all of it is under law because road and pedestrian laws are from the 1920s in our books.

There are different sets of laws for farm/offroad vehciles and road going vehicles in other countries if you want to use that card.

the member @msabbasi has 2 SUVs both from different oems. request his opinion to make choice for yourself.

[mumbojumbo]

That's not so uncommon a combination in some parts of the world. Machine guns + rocket launchers + Toyota off-roaders is a bit of a favorite. Spikes..not so much though.

And you are absolutely right about the safety mandate because that absorbs the hit impact.

[salman_w]

No card in use. Abiding by states law. Every state has different laws. Pakistan has a lot of them just poorly implemented. For now steel bumpers are not illegal. Not that i have one on my rig. But they are legal. Tints are illegal and other stuff like big flood lights etc. If i find that its illegal in Pakistan i will not do it. My Revo's back passenger windows were jet black 3M tinted and i got them removed.
p.s. I am aware that hurting all living beings is wrong and i have never or will never do it. Also i am not a 100% set on installing a steel bumper.

Looking for a fuel efficient SUV is like looking for the most chaste hooker.

[Xulfiqar]

In pk

A car comes with a wishlist!

Usually has such

Smoother than a citroen ds
Can ford rivers without stopping
Has a very powerful engine
Has butch presence
Does 25 km/lit

[capsat]

SUV definition PK is macho muscular look,
Comfortable as Dreamliner Business class cabin
Fuel efficient as doodhwalay ki maintenance free Honda 70.

The thing is that people confuse these Vezel type Crossovers with Land Cruisers and Patrols etc....then they try to fit their silly expectations to all of the high riding categories on the market

[omarabdullah022]

you forgot non-depreciating asset requiring zero maintenance and cheapo parts man

[saboor73]

If hybrid SUVs are also considered, I would vote for vezel and CHR

Vezel and CHR are SUV?

[horticulturalist]

Yes, subcompact cross over SUV.

[VCheng]

Sure, cross overs are the transgenders of the SUV class.

[harrissaeed89]

Lol...lets hope people come to recognise that...I remember one teenager in my distant relatives challenged me for an off road competition with his newly bought FWD Sportage against my old timer Hilux....i slapped him on the wrist and told that ur daddy's new car is gonna be a junk if he tries that.

[Xulfiqar]

A lot of people now are looking for binary answers.

E.g.

Suv = Suv

Hence

Land Cruiser = Sportage

Add

My daddy has more money than your daddy (this cannot be fixed)

From a philosophical point of view, the answer is a bop to the back of the head!

My Prado 4.0 on a good day has given me 11 with controlled foot, 10. 2 from Islamabad to Haripur via Motorways and on lesser controlled foot, 9 very often, and 8 in routine Islamabad drive.

I hit 7 when going totally uncontrolled footwork..

That's fuel efficient enough for me from this size engine.

Have photos of all above trip averages.

[pwuser152545976339]

The one I took test drive amazon was showing 40mpg + .. so yes 10-13 is doable sort

[pwuser152545976339]

It looks amazon diesel with zig zag gear 1hdfte

Secondly for people first answer the question , usually person who is asking the question is mature enough to understand points mentioned by respectable brother members. But yet he wants the best choice and question is valid ..

One can go for cygnus and in same budget one can go for amazon
So fuel efficiency wise Amazon would be better so it addresses the concern of the person

But yes one has to research about the maintenance and issues faced by amazon owners to decide ..
