Recent continued instability in the Middle East has led to significant fluctuations in international crude oil prices, increasing the financial burden on households. As a result, selecting fuel-efficient and energy-efficient vehicles has become an important concern for the public. To assist the public in selecting high energy efficiency vehicles, the Energy Administration, Ministry of Economic Affairs, not only regularly publishes the latest monthly energy efficiency information of certified models online, but also compiles these data annually into the "Vehicle Fuel Economy Guide" for public reference. To further encourage the public to choose energy-saving and carbon-reducing electric vehicles, the "2025 Vehicle Fuel Economy Guide" also includes energy efficiency information of electric vehicles that have completed testing and certification.
The top-performing non-electric vehicles in each category of the 2025 Vehicle Fuel Economy Guide are shown below:
Passenger cars: Honda FIT A522H1502 1498c.c. A1 5D hybrid gasoline passenger car, manufactured by HONDA TAIWAN MOTOR CO., LTD., achieved the best performance with a fuel economy of 26.9 km/L.
Commercial vehicles: TUCSON NX4H-C, 1598c.c. A6 5D hybrid gasoline commercial vehicle, manufactured by Sanyang Motor Co., Ltd., achieved the best performance with a fuel economy of 21.1 km/L.
Motorcycles: HONDA SUPER CUB 109.5c.c. M4, imported by LI LIN MOTORCYCLE CO., LTD., achieved a fuel economy of 96.5 km/L.
According to the Energy Administration, to maximize energy-saving and carbon-reduction performance, it is important not only to carefully choose energy-efficient vehicles but also to maintain good driving habits and perform regular vehicle maintenance, such as reducing vehicle load, accelerating and decelerating smoothly, maintaining proper tire pressure, and avoiding prolonged idling, which are all effective practices for improving fuel economy. Additionally, making greater use of public transportation such as the MRT and buses can also help reduce fuel expenses and energy consumption, while also contributing to climate change mitigation.
The Energy Administration also clarified that the energy efficiency test values published in the 2025 Vehicle Fuel Economy Guide were measured under standardized laboratory conditions. In real-world driving, fuel economy may be affected by various factors such as weather, road and traffic conditions, use of air conditioning, and individual driving habits. Therefore, the actual driving distance per liter of gasoline (or diesel) or per kilowatt-hour of electricity may be lower than the values shown in the Guide, and the public is advised to use the information as a reference.
The 2025 Chinese version of the Vehicle Fuel Economy Guide has been published on the Energy Administration's official website (https://www.moeaea.gov.tw). The public is welcome to download the guide. You can also visit the following website (https://EA03.moeaea.gov.tw/e0416/) for fuel economy information on specific vehicle models and refer to the "General Inquiry" section or the "EV Energy Efficiency Inquiry" page.
