Best Mileage Petrol Cars In India 2020

As people know as diesel cars are known to offer a really high mileage, it doesn’t always make sense to buy them. Buying a petrol model over its diesel version has its own advantages. Anyone whose monthly running is lower than, say, 2,000 kms should prefer a petrol-powered car over its diesel-sipping variant. Also, the gap between the fuel efficiency offered by petrol and diesel engines is fast reducing. On top of it, petrol cars are cheaper to buy and maintain than their diesel versions. Here is a list of 5 best mileage petrol cars that are on sale in India.
