The annual ecoENERGY for vehicles Awards, administered by Natural Resources Canada's Office of Energy Efficiency, are presented for the most fuel-efficient vehicles for the current model year.
Winning vehicles are determined by testing that simulates 20 000 kilometres annually (55 percent city, 45 percent highway).
