2021 Fuel Economy Guide Now Available

Federal law requires new-car dealers to provide the Guide to customers upon request.

The U.S. Department of Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency have just released the 2021 Fuel Economy Guide. The Guide provides detailed fuel economy estimates for model year 2021 light-duty vehicles, along with estimated annual fuel costs and other information for prospective purchasers. By law, dealers must display the Guide and provide copies to customers upon request. Dealers may choose to (1) print copies to have on hand or (2) provide access to the electronic version/website on a computer or electronic device in the display area. The regulations ensure that prospective customers have ready access to fuel economy information for current model year vehicles.
