5 Used Luxury Models to Save You Money

Value is an important factor when it comes to buying a used car. In other words, getting a used vehicle that saves you money on gas can be a true blessing, especially considering how difficult it can be to find a good used car, SUV, or truck in this era of post-COVID inventory shortages. Check out the following vehicles, compare their mileage ratings, and keep them in mind as you visit your local used car dealers.

Lexus CT 200h

Hybrids are a good way to go if you’re looking to save money on gas. That’s why the 2014-16 Lexus CT 200h is one of the best values in the used luxury car marketplace thanks to a combined fuel economy of 42 mpg. It lacks some of the power and tech you’ll find on later- model used cars, but it’s hard to beat that fuel economy, especially at a price range of from $16,000 to $25,000.

2014 Acura ILX Hybrid

The 2014 Acura ILX Hybrid is not only a winner when it comes to fuel economy — it’s also a sporty sedan with luxurious materials and an engine powerful enough to give you that fun, racy feel. It’s also a comfortable car to drive or ride in, with enough legroom for everyone. Don’t overlook its combined 38 mpg and an estimated used car price tag of from $18,000 to $24,000.

2017 Cadillac ATS

Nothing says luxury quite like a Cadillac. The 2017 Cadillac ATS offers plenty of sumptuous luxury and a healthy fuel economy rating of 20 city/30 hwy (RWD model). As a Cadillac, its 2.0-liter turbo V6 engine generates more than enough horsepower for your daily commute, and a more-than-acceptable fuel efficiency capable of saving you plenty at the pump.

2015 Audi Q5

The 2015 Audi Q5 is an extraordinary vehicle with plenty of power, luxury features and little conveniences that make driving an Audi such a memorable experience. You’ll love its console-based navigation, power liftgate, wealth of tech features, and smooth ride thanks to an all-wheel drivetrain built for comfort and performance. And, of course, its 24 city/31 hwy EPA-rated mileage will save you money.

2015 Volvo XC60

The 2015 Volvo XC60 is one of the legendary carmaker’s most dynamic and value-conscious editions in recent years. Its 2.0-liter turbocharged engine is paired with either a FWD or AWD powertrain; either way, the Volvo XC 60 is versatile, an ideal choice for outdoor weekend adventures or shuttling your kid’s soccer team to big games. And its 24 city/31 hwy fuel efficiency figures will save you money.

The performance of the cars on this list depends on a lot of factors, from used car condition and driving habits to preventive maintenance. But this collection of luxury sedans and hybrid models has a collective history of dependable performance on the road as well as at the pump.
