| Economy over the period of mixed driving both laden and unladen was 43 mpg. |
|
| Keep it green but keep it simple with gas-powered cars that rate at or near 40 mpg in highway driving. |
|
| Rear seat space limited, price is steep, if you use all the performance of the car you will drop well below 30 mpg. |
|
| For the record, I drove it 332 miles, including a round trip from Los Angeles to Palm Springs, and got a respectable 51.7 mpg. |
|
| The motorway figure of 47 mpg shows the potential on long runs, so most owners should end up on the right side of 40 mpg. |
|
| Fuel consumption is a good point and most owners should get well on the right side of 30 mpg, even when city driving predominates. |
|
| However, the test vehicle was brand new, and a well run-in engine should average a much more creditable 22 mpg. |

|
| As well as a pifflingly low insurance group, the Be-Up enjoys reduced road tax, 70 mpg, congestion charge exemption and the mechanical simplicity of a knife and fork. |
