In the event that high gas prices begin hitting even the wealthy, displacement-loving, power-toting blokes among us, BusinessWeek has compiled a list of the top ten most fuel efficient luxury cars. The list, especially when you include the runners-up, is a diverse showing of both automakers and fuel types, with hybrids and diesels finding a place alongside with their gasoline-powered siblings.
- Mid-size: Mercedes E320 CDI, runner up: Lexus GS300
- SUV: Lexus RX 400h, runner up: Volvo XC/70
- Sub-compact: Acura RSX, runner up: Lexus IS250
- Compact: Audi A4, runner up: Volvo S40
