Several local markets have covered the report both on and offline.

Even when the price of gas was falling recently, the interest in cars with better mileage was not. A recent study by the Good Housing Institute tested 11 models of cars head to head. Part of the minimum criteria was that the cars claimed mileage greater than 30 miles per gallon and be able to seat four people comfortably.

Hybrid cars were excluded from the study, which just became available online through the Good Housekeeping Institute. You may also hear about the study on the news tonight, and several local markets are summarizing the report on their site, though few are linking back to the original online copy.

The top four cars within the scope of their test were:

• Toyota’s Yaris
• Toyota’s Corolla
• Kia’s Rio, and,
• The Nissan Versa.

Some of the details printed online are not available in the version on newstands, according to the Good Housekeeping Institute’s article.
