In
today’s competitive auto market countless variables must be
considered when determining which vehicle is right for you. Whereas in
previous years car buyers sought increased body size and interior
space, many of today’s consumers are primarily concerned with
fuel efficiency. While some of this is a reaction to the effect
greenhouse gases have on the environment, for most it boils down to how
much money can be saved at the pump.
Thus, today’s auto market has become obsessed with
mile-per-gallon averages and fuel efficiency standards. But with hybrid
vehicles accounting for a greater percentage of auto sales and electric
vehicles waiting on the horizon, how relevant will MPG averages
continue to be? |

Once the majority of automobiles no longer run on fuel, consumers will
no longer concern themselves with fuel efficiency standards. So
what’s next? As electricity is measured in terms of cents per
kilowatt, future cost efficiency standards must reflect this.
Therefore, cost-per-mile ratings will eventually become the new
standard-bearer. Instead of worrying about how many miles an automobile
can derive from a gallon of gasoline, the new concern will center on
what an automobile’s cost per mile or CPM rating is.
Essentially, consumers will always need a way to gauge how cost
efficient an automobile is, but they will simply use a new equation
with which to determine it. Say goodbye to MPG ratings and prepare for
the age of CPM ratings.
