Infographics have really taken off in popularity over the last few years. The word is short for information graphics, which serve to condense a lot of information into an image or series of images that convey a specific message.
We recently caught wind of this insightful infographic from the folks at shopautoweek.com and just had to share it with you. Check out the most fuel-efficient cars and trucks of 2012. The list is broken down by vehicle segment – from two-seaters to SUVs. Do any on the list surprise you?

Thanks, CelloMom. You make a good point about the fuel-sipping options on a global perspective versus what’s sold here in the U.S. The infographic was produced by a US-based company so that explains the title.
