Most Fuel Efficient Trucks: Duramax Diesel GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Colorado

November 12, 2015 By Alexandra Sydor

The diesel-powered models of the Chevrolet Colorado and the GMC Canyon received an EPA rating of 31 miles per gallon on the highway. This makes the diesel Colorado and diesel Canyon the most fuel efficient trucks compared to any big, small, gasoline or diesel trucks sold in the United States.

This puts the two GM vehicles ranked ahead of the Toyota Tacoma, Nissan Frontier and Ford F150.

The second most fuel efficient pickup is the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel, which is rated at 26 miles per gallon on the highway.

2016-gmc-canyonGM plans to add available diesel engines to its other vehicles. According to Mark Reuss, GM’s product development chief, Chevrolet will launch the diesel Chevy Cruze for the 2017 model year.
