How To
Use This Guide
This Gas Mileage Guide gives information on the
relative fuef economy performance of 1978
model year cars/station wagons, and light trucks.
The estimates are expressed in terms of miles
per gallon raeasared by standardized EPA fuel
economy tests. These estimates allow you to
compare the relative fuel economy efficiency of
1978 model year cars; these estimates DO
NOT MEAN that you will get the same mileage In
these cars. The mileage that you will get will
depend to a large degree on where you drive—city
versus country, mountains versus flat terrain,
cold versus mild climate—and your personal driving
habits.
These 1978 models were certified by EPA as
of January 23,1978.
All new car dealers are required to prominently
display and have available copies of this
Guide in their showrooms.
How The Guide Is Organized
To help you compare the fuel economy of similar*
sized vehicles, passenger cars and station
wagons are grouped into classes according to their
interior size, an important measure of vehicle
utility. This means that vehicles that are
approximately the same size inside will be in the
same class. Trucks are grouped by their capacity,
In terms of gross vehicle weight rating.
Car Classes

In each size class, you will find trie following
information for every model type:
Manufacturer and Car Una Names
The manufacturers are listed alphabetically.
Under each manufacturer, the car lines are listed
alphabetically.
Put I Economy and Fuel Cost Estimates
City fuel economy reflects trips for local errands,
driving to work, and general stop-and-go driving in
urban and suburban areas. Highway fuel
economy reflects non-stop driving on rural roads at
a speed averaging about 50 mph. The combined
fuel economy estimate is a weighted average of city
and highway estimates. It assumes slightly over
half city and under half highway driving, which is
about the average U.S. driving pattern, according
to the Federal Highway Administration.
All values reflect the performance of a well-
maintained car in warm weather driving on dry
level roads after the car has been broken in.
-------
The fuel cost is based on the combined mpg and
estimates what you would pay for fuel in 1 year if
you drive 15,000 miles and pay 70 cents per
gallon for gasoline (or 60 cents per gallon for diesel
fuel). Check the Fuel Cost Chart for additional
information on relative yearly fuel costs at different
prices per gallon.
Vehicle Description
Each line in the Guide shows an engine-
transmission combination available within the listed
car line identified by the following designation:
Engine Size—Listed by cubic inch displacement
(CID), liters (L), or cubic centimeters (CC).
Number of Cylinders or Rotors—Differentiates
between 4, 5, 6, 8, and 12 cylinder engines or 1
and 2 rotors.
Engine Type—When engine size and number
of cylinders are not an adequate description of an
engine, the following engine type designations
will also be given:
TURBO Turbocharged engine
DIESEL Diesel engine
ROTARY Rotary engine
CAT, NO CAT Used to indicate catalyst usage when both
oxidation catalyst and noncatalyst versions of
an engine are available.
3WAYCAT An advanced catalyst with a feedback control
system
GM-CHEV Engine produced by GM-Chevrolet Motor
Division or GM of Canada
GM-OLDS Engine produced by GM-Oldsmobile Division
GM-BUICK Engine produced by GM-Butck Motor Division
GM-CAD Engine produced by GM-Cadiilac Motor
Division using a short block assembly and
cylinder head from Oldsmobile Division of
General Motors
W ENG Used to identify the engine block type. The
M ENG engine block type installed in your vehicle will
be determined by the manufacturer.
CVCC Compound vortex control combustion engine
(stratified charge).
Check with your dealer and check the fuel
economy label prior to purchase for information on
the exact engine with which these vehicles will
be equipped.
Transmission—"A" for automatic and "M" for
manual.
Fuel System—"Fl" for fuel injection or the
number of barrels in the carburetor.
Interior Volume Index—The interior volume
index is listed for each body style: 2-door (2-DR),
4
-------
4-door (4-DR), and hatchback (HTBK). The Interior
Volume Index is one way of estimating the space
in a car. It is based on four measurements—head
room, hip room, leg room, and shoulder room-
tor the front and rear seats, as well as trunk
capacity. The Interior Volume Index is given as
two numbers (in cubic feet). The first is an estimate
of the size of the passenger compartment; the
second, the size of the trunk or, in station wagons
and hatchbacks, the cargo space behind the
second seat.
Factors That Affect
Fuel Economy
The fuel economy numbers in this Guide are
based on carefully controlled tests performed on
well-maintained vehicles. No standardized test of
this type can ever represent each person's
individual driving.
Surveys have shown that over half of all drivers
report that their average fuel economy is within 2
mpg of the EPA estimate. However, approximately
10 percent report mileage that is more than 5
mpg below the EPA combined estimate for their
model car. In buying a new car, you should
recognize that the EPA estimates cannot predict
the mileage you will obtain. Instead, the EPA
estimates provide a way to compare the relative
fuel economy performance of different models
when they are driven under the same conditions.
There are many factors that can affect your car's
fuel economy and cause the fuel economy to differ
from that listed in this Guide. One is that even
two cars of the same model, identically equipped,
may vary in fuel economy by as much as plus or
minus 10 percent (2 mpg on a 20 combined mpg
car) due to production variability. Also, any
differences between the test conditions and the
condition of your vehicle, your driving habits, and
the weather, road, and traffic conditions under
which you drive will result in a different fuel
economy from that listed for your car. The following
paragraphs explain how some of these factors
affect fuel economy.
5
-------
Temperature
Summer temperatures (over 70° F.) are better for
fuel economy than winter temperatures. At 20° F.,
for example, there can be an approximate 8-
percent fuel economy loss compared to the
combined mpg number in this Guide. For a 20-
mpg (combined) vehicle, this is about 1.5 mpg.
Wind
Wind can increase or decrease fuel economy.
Examples for a car that normally gets 20 mpg
(combined) are:
18 mph tailwind-*about 12-percent gain in fuel
economy (2.4 mpg).
18 mph crosswind-vabout 1-percent loss in
fuel economy (0.2 mpg).
18 mph headwind-»about 10-percent loss in
fuel economy (2 mpg).
Precipitation
Rain or snow, and the wet roads that result, can
cause an approximate 10-percent loss in fuel
economy (2 mpg for a 20-mpg vehicle).
Road Condition
Rough or loose road surfaces (such as sand or
gravel) can also cause a fuel economy loss
ranging between 10 and 30 percent (or 2 to 6 mpg
for a 20-mpg vehicle). Cars use more fuel on hilly
roads than flat roads. The fuel saved in going
downhill does not equal the extra fuel used going
uphill. Mountain driving causes an even greater fuel
economy penalty.
How You Drive
An engine that is already warmed up (such as
one that was used in the last 4 hours) requires less
fuel to reach its most efficient operating condition
than a "cold" engine (such as one in a car parked
overnight).
Trip length also affects fuel economy. Shorter trips
(under 5 miles) do not allow the engine to reach
6
-------
its best operating condition, whereas longer trips
allow the peak operating temperature and engine
condition to be obtained. This does not mean that
you can save fuel by increasing the length of your
short trips. It does mean that by combining
numerous short trips into a single, longer trip you
can save fuel by reducing the total miles driven as
well as taking advantage of your vehicle's
warmed-up condition.
Smooth, even driving improves fuel economy
performance; therefore, try to avoid sudden stops
and starts. By anticipating stop lights and
intersections, you can slow down gradually. Also,
avoid rapid accelerations. On the highway, you
will improve your fuel economy by driving at or
below the 55-mph speed limit.
Your Vehicle's Condition
The condition of your vehicle is important, too, for
fuel economy reasons:
• Maintain your vehicle according to the
manufacturer's specifications. On the
average, a tuned-up vehicle gets approximately
3 to 9 percent better fuel economy than one
that has not been properly maintained.
• Keep the tires inflated to the proper pressure.
Underinflated tires can cause a fuel economy
loss.

Fuel Economy Tests
The city and highway fuel economy values in this
Guide come from tests conducted or approved by
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
These tests are performed on vehicles submitted
by the auto industry to EPA to demonstrate
compliance with the requirements of the Clean Air
Act and the Energy Policy and Conservation Act.
Each vehicle is tested under precisely controlled
7
-------
conditions by professional drivers in a laboratory
on a dynamometer. The dynamometer is a machine
that permits exact simulation of the vehicle's
operation under various driving conditions.
Temperature is controlled in the laboratory in a
range of 68" to 86° F. in order to provide the same
temperature conditions for all vehicles.
City Test
This test simulates a 7.5-mile, stop-and-go trip
with a speed range of 0 to 56 mph, and an average
speed of 20 mph. The trip takes 23 minutes and
has 18 stops. Eighteen percent of the trip is spent
idling, such as would be expected in the city at
traffic lights or in rush-hour traffic. Two kinds of
engine starts are used. One is a cold start, which
is similar to starting a car in the morning after it has
been parked all night. The other is a hot start,
which is similar to starting a vehicle after having
parked it for a short time while shopping. The
information from this test is then combined to
represent the fuel economy of that vehicle during
a realistic mixture of hot and cold starts during
urban driving conditions.
Highway Test
This test simulates a 10-mile, non-stop trip that
begins with the vehicle warmed up. The trip has an
average speed of about 50 mph and lasts 13
minutes. The speed during the test ranges from 0
to 60 mph. If your highway driving speed
averages faster than the test's average of 50
mph, you should expect to achieve poorer
fuel economy than the highway fuel economy
estimate in this Guide—about 10 to 15 percent
less for every 10 mph above 50 mph.
Fuel Economy Labels
All 1978 passenger automobiles and light trucks
are required to have gas mileage labels if they have
gross vehicle weights of 6000 pounds or less.
There are two types of labels. The one that will
appear on most vehicles is the General Label.
The fuel economy numbers on these labels are the
8
-------
same as those that appear in this "Gas Mileage
Guide" and are based on an average of fuel
economy test results for similar versions of a
given model.
The Specific Label (which will be clearly marked
"Specific Label") will have additional information
about that vehicle's characteristics and will have
fuel economy estimates that relate to a specific
individual vehicle within the model line.
Because of this, the Specific Label in some cases
will have fuel economy estimates that are
different from the General Label values in the "Gas
Mileage Guide."
Also, the estimates on a Specific Label may not fall
into the range of fuel economy estimates listed
for its class. This is because a specific model may
be more fuel efficient than the average for the
model type.
Fuel Costs, In Dollars, Per 15,000 Miles
Example: If you pay an average of 65 cents per
gallon and your car gets 12 mpg, your fuel cost for
15,000 miles of driving is $813. If you own a car
that gets 20 mpg, your annual fuel cost for 15,000
miles at 70 cents per gallon is $525.
