The Toyota Aygo successfully defended its crown as the most economical car on the roads at the 2007 AA/ALD Automotive MPG Marathon. Driving an Aygo 1.0 litre, James Sutherland and Richard Hill from Peak Performance achieved an overall consumption figure of 78.39 mpg. The MPG Marathon, run by Fleet World magazine, involved completing 330 miles from Basingstoke to Torquay over different types of road. The results were judged on the consumption achieved, along with the percentage improvement obtained, in relation to the official consumption figure for each car.
