Fuel consumption seems to be inversly proportional to engine peerformance on the petrol engined cars. However there are more things to go wrong on a turbo engine so maintenance costs could be higher in the long run.
The diesel engined cars are the 'dark horse' of the range giving adequate performance and good economy.
