As gas prices continue to rise, more people are growing concerned with how much money they&#039;re paying at the pump. Because of this, automakers are improving their fuel economy to meet the needs of consumers.<\/p>\n<p>According to TrueCar.com, the average fuel economy for a new car sold was 23.2 miles per gallon (MPG) in September, increasing from 22 MPG the previous year. The rate stayed the same from the previous month.<\/p>\n<p>Jesse Toprak, the vice president of market intelligence for TrueCar.com reports that automakers such as General Motors, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Toyota\" class=\"dnautolink\">Toyota<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Honda\" class=\"dnautolink\">Honda<\/a> were all behind the surge, as last year saw a lot of consumers turning to small vehicles in order to increase their fuel economy.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, it seems as though American automakers are paying attention to this trend, as they averaged 21.2 MPG this September in comparison to 20.2 MPG from the previous year. It was the South Korean automakers that had the most to offer when it came to fuel economy. According to the news source, the average fuel economy from a South Korean automaker increased from 26.7 MPG to 27.5 MPG in a year&#039;s time.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, people who want a better fuel economy do not always have to buy new. There are a number of used cars that are smaller and offer more miles to gallon than a person&#039;s current vehicle may offer. Individuals may want to consider heading to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\" class=\"dnautolink\">NJ Auto Auction<\/a> to look at some of the used cars available and what kind of fuel economy they have.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>September proved to be another good month for car sales, as it seems as though more Americans are looking to trade in their current vehicle in exchange for a car with a better fuel economy.
