Yugo cars: MPG and fuel economy by model
The EPA has rated 8 vehicles from Yugo across 4 distinct models since 1986. The list below covers every Yugo model with its combined MPG and estimated annual fuel cost, organised by model year so you can see how the lineup has evolved.
Below you will find every Yugo model in the EPA dataset, split into a recent table for the last five model years and a longer table for the rest. Click any model and year to see the full breakdown, including city and highway MPG, tailpipe CO₂ emissions, and the engine and drivetrain specification.
Yugo fuel economy snapshot
Across every Yugo the EPA has ever rated, the most efficient is the 1989 Yugo GV/GVX at 26 combined MPG. That figure includes electric vehicles, which use MPGe rather than a true gallon of fuel.
For the 1990 model year, Yugo's lineup averages 25 combined MPG across 4 models. The lineup is currently all gasoline-powered.
Recent Yugo models
Recent Yugo models from the 1986 model year onward, sorted by year and model. Trims appear separately when the EPA rates them as distinct vehicles (for example, when an all-wheel-drive variant has its own MPG figures).
| Year | Model | Combined MPG | Annual fuel cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990 | GV Plus/GV/Cabrio | 25 MPG | $2,400 |
| 1989 | GV/GVX | 26 MPG | $2,300 |
| 1988 | GV | 26 MPG | $2,300 |
| 1987 | GV/GVX | 26 MPG | $2,300 |
| 1986 | Gy/yugo GVX | 25 MPG | $2,400 |
