20 Cars That Spend More Time at Gas Stations Than on the Road

Some automakers seem to think fuel is endless. They’ve designed cars that chug gas like it’s happy hour, and there’s no tomorrow. Here are 20 cars that are the poster kids for fuel wastage. If you own one, each drive might feel more like a donation to your nearest gas station.
Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport

A monstrous 1,500-horsepower engine is designed to break records for speed as well as fuel waste. With a fuel economy of just 9 to 10 mpg (city and highway combined), the Chiron Pur Sport is here to remind you that you’re always putting performance ahead of economy.
Bugatti Veyron

Another Bugatti fuel waster is the Veyron, which also gives a miserable 8 to 10 mpg combined. So, when you’re chasing top speeds, around 250 mph, in this car, the W16 engine guzzles gas, especially around town, as if it were refueling for a NASA mission.
Bentley Continental GT

GT’s 6.0-liter W12 engine goes 0-60 mph in just 3.6 seconds. However, with only 15 mpg combined, fuel efficiency isn’t its strong suit. Expect the handcrafted interior, advanced suspension, and all-wheel drive to burn through fuel as quickly as you enjoy the premium experience.
2024 Nissan Armada

People can tow up to 8,500 pounds with this 2024 model, but its 15 to 16 mpg fuel economy makes it a gas guzzler. A panoramic moonroof, a 4WD system, and an intuitive infotainment system are among the top suits of this Armada, and the lowest is the fuel economy.
Chevrolet Camaro ZL1

The Chevrolet Camaro has magnetic ride control, a performance-tuned suspension, and a unique front grille—all traits of a track-ready car. Unfortunately, all that power comes at the price of fuel efficiency. The ZL1 only delivers 16 mpg on both city and highway roads.
Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk

Powered by a 707-horsepower supercharged V8, the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk is a performance powerhouse. The tradeoff? A mere 13 mpg everywhere. When you’re cruising with that much muscle, prepare to spend a lot more time at the pump than on the road.
Dodge Durango SRT

A 14 mpg combined fuel economy is a tough pill to swallow, even if the car has a towing capacity of 8,700 pounds. Dodge really decided to dodge the eco-friendly aspects here. Do you need those Brembo brakes and an SRT drive mode when you need to think twice before hitting the road?
Ferrari 812 Superfast

This Ferrari holds the title of “Most Super Superfast Supercar.” If you own one, you may also win the title of “Most Gass-Guzzling Driver in a Supercar.” Sadly, its fuel efficiency is a joke compared to its achievements, with only 12 mpg combined.
Toyota Sequoia

If you’re in the market for an SUV that can haul everything and everyone, expect to sacrifice fuel savings in the process. The Toyota Sequoia is ideal for heavy towing and large, wealthy families. Its 15 mpg combined fuel economy reflects its size and weight.
Rolls-Royce Ghost

The Ghost’s 14 mpg seems decent for a luxury sedan, but don’t expect a green lifestyle from a $300,000 car with a V12 engine. Lavish rides—smooth, quiet, and powerful—come with a hefty price at the pump. That’s why Rolls-Royce didn’t include an eco-friendly mode.
Rolls-Royce Wraith

The next inefficient Rolls-Royce model is the Wraith, which is also about luxury and performance, with no concerns about fuel usage. This grand tourer delivers a smooth, refined driving experience, but at the expense of your wallet—14 mpg combined.
Infiniti QX80

For those who want a luxurious SUV with space for the family, the Infiniti QX80 is fine. Also, be ready to fill up often because this one doesn’t prioritize frugality, either. Providing ample power for both comfort and capability. The QX80 delivers just 14 mpg combined.
Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR

While you’re off-roading in this Rover, just know that your fuel efficiency will likely be left behind on the trail. The car only manages 17 mpg on every road. It’s built for rugged adventures and high-speed fun, but fuel economy? Not so much.
Ford Mustang GT

The Ford Mustang GT stands out with its iconic aggressive design and fuel-wasting capabilities. As you enjoy selectable drive modes and a Tremec 6-speed manual transmission, don’t expect it to go beyond 16 mpg when you’re chasing thrills on any road.
Mercedes-AMG GLA45

Want to bask in the glory of a Mercedes? If you are all about performance first, money second, and Earth third, the Mercedes-AMG GLA45 is here to give you around 20 mpg combined—best for reaching the nearest gas station, rocketing from 0-60 mph in 4.3 seconds.
The Maserati Levante

Levante proves that the Italian style doesn’t do well with fuel efficiency since it achieves only 18 mpg, and real-world mileage can vary even more. It promises a smooth ride by gliding over rough terrain with air suspension. So, the car is a stunning SUV, just not a green one.
Porsche Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid

People might think that hybrid tech would help, but the Turbo S E-Hybrid only gets around 22 mpg on different terrains. Moreover, it drops significantly in performance modes. You’ll also accelerate your fuel costs every time you switch to Sport Plus.
Chevrolet Suburban RST

Want to haul your kids, dog, and a week’s worth of groceries? No problem. But when you’re filling up the 31-gallon tank, you’ll wish Chevy had prioritized miles per gallon, too. Even if it is designed as a mobile mansion on wheels, the car can achieve only 16 mpg.
Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat

The Hellcat is one of the most powerful muscle cars on the road. With this ride, the only thing that burns faster than rubber is the cash in your wallet. Why? The 15 mpg is the reason. So, if you’re worried about efficiency, you might want to look elsewhere.
Lamborghini Aventador

The winner of multiple “Car of the Year” awards is the worst fuel saver. Make sure you have enough money to fill the Lambo’s tank every hour because the Aventator will shock you with just 10 mpg—it doesn’t matter which road you take.
