Best Fuel-Efficient Cars for Your Eid Homecoming Trip

Driving home for Eid can be a cost-effective choice, especially when traveling with family or friends. By sharing expenses, you can cut down on transportation costs while enjoying a more comfortable and flexible journey.

To make your mudik homecoming trip even more budget-friendly, choosing a fuel-efficient car is key. Fuel consumption plays a big role in travel expenses, so selecting the right vehicle can help you save even more.

TRAC’s Top Picks for Fuel-Efficient Cars This Eid

Avanza & Xenia: The Reliable “Twin” MPVs for Long Trips

The Toyota Avanza and Daihatsu Xenia are often called “twins” because they share the same platform, engine options, and overall design, thus offering reliability and fuel efficiency in a practical package.

Developed jointly by Toyota and Daihatsu, these two MPVs have been top choices for families seeking a balance of comfort, affordability, and efficiency.

With their efficient 1.3L and 1.5L engines, both models deliver fuel consumption of approximately 14-18 km per liter on long-distance drives.

Designed to accommodate up to seven passengers, they are perfect for homecoming trips with family, ensuring a smooth and cost-effective journey.

Calya & Sigra: Budget-Friendly LCGC Picks for Your Homecoming Trip

The Toyota Calya and Daihatsu Sigra are part of the Low-Cost Green Car (LCGC) category, making them popular choices for fuel-conscious travelers.

With an efficient 1.2L engine, these cars can achieve 17-20 km per liter on toll roads, offering impressive mileage without breaking the bank.

Beyond fuel efficiency, both models provide a surprisingly spacious cabin for an LCGC vehicle, ensuring a comfortable ride even on long-distance trips.

However, since these cars have relatively small engines, it’s important to take extra precautions when driving long distances.

To keep your Eid homecoming smooth, economical, and safe, don’t forget to check out TRAC’s essential tips for long trips with an LCGC car.

Ayla & Agya: Perfect for Budget-Friendly Homecoming to Nearby Cities

If you’re planning a short-distance homecoming or traveling to a nearby city to celebrate Eid with family, the Daihatsu Ayla and Toyota Agya are excellent choices.

These compact cars are powered by either a 1.0L or 1.2L engine, delivering impressive fuel efficiency, reaching up to 20-22 km per liter on toll roads when driving at a steady speed.

Thanks to their small dimensions, Ayla and Agya are easy to navigate through narrow streets and crowded roads, typical of urban areas during the Eid travel rush. It’s no surprise that these models are also among the top choices for daily commuting.

Mu-X: Power Meets Efficiency

For those who need a powerful yet fuel-efficient vehicle, the Isuzu Mu-X is a solid choice. This rugged SUV is primarily available with a 1.9L diesel engine, though a 3.0L variant is also offered.

Despite its high power output and elevated ground clearance, the Mu-X delivers 12-14 km per liter, making it remarkably efficient for its class.

With a 4x4 option, it’s an excellent pick for travelers heading to challenging terrains or hilly areas during their homecoming journey.

Innova Zenix: Maximum Comfort with a Spacious Cabin

The Toyota Innova has long been a favorite for homecoming trips, known for its exceptional comfort and spacious interior. The Innova Zenix Hybrid takes efficiency to the next level, achieving 18-20 km per liter thanks to its hybrid technology.

Even the non-hybrid Innova Zenix performs impressively, with a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine delivering 12 km per liter in mixed driving conditions and up to 16 km per liter on toll roads.

No matter the variant, the Innova is packed with features designed to enhance long-distance travel, from plush suspension to an airy, comfortable cabin. It’s no wonder that Innova rentals are always in high demand for Eid homecoming trips!
