Ten fuel-efficient cars under SEK 100,000

Sky-high fuel prices are taking a toll on Swedish motorists. The good news is that there is an easy way to make your money last longer – to change cars. Kvdbil lists ten fuel-efficient cars that all cost under 100,000 kronor.

Gasoline and diesel prices are at historically high levels and continue to burn holes in the wallets of Swedish motorists, who also have record-breaking food, electricity and significantly higher interest rates to contend with. But it is possible to influence your fuel costs, points out Daniel Odsberg, Sales Manager Kvdbil .

"There are many ways to reduce car costs. The quickest and easiest is to downgrade to a smaller, more fuel-efficient model. We often drive larger and heavier cars than we really need, and by doing so, we are only subjecting our finances to unnecessary suffering." says Daniel Odsberg.

For example, someone who is willing to switch from a 2016 Ford Focus estate sedan to a slightly smaller car like the Toyota Aygo (2016) can save almost SEK 30,000 a year.

List: ten fuel-efficient models

Daniel Odsberg recommends ten low-priced models that will help you save money this winter.

Used Fiat 500 (2014)

An Italian classic that is both fuel-efficient and good for the wallet. Although the car is not quite as small as the original model launched in 1957, a used Fiat 500 is an excellent fit for a small household. Despite its size, the spaces are also surprisingly large. The car, with its Italian charm and large panoramic roof, also offers amenities such as electric windows and cruise control.

Approximate price: 40,000 – 60,000 SEK

Estimated fuel consumption: 4.2 liters/100 km (105 hp, gasoline)

Used Kia Picanto (2015)

Kia has solved this by offering folding rear seats that enable a maximum volume of 870 liters.
