Construction 6×2 rigid lorries: which uses the least fuel?
Every model here was simulated by its manufacturer on the EU construction mission, with the payload the regulation sets, and declared to the regulator. Figures are compared only within one reporting year and one payload. A model is ranked when at least ten declared vehicles stand behind its figure.

What the difference is worth
The lowest and highest ranked here are 4.9 l/100 km apart (16.2%). At 120,000 km a year and an assumed £1.40 a litre, that is about 5,880 litres a year, or £8,232.
Where it stops mattering: 8 models here are within 10% of the lowest figure, inside the tolerance of declared figures, so the ranking between them is not a reason to choose one over another. The specification ordered matters too: declared figures for the Volvo FM, 375 kW, 6x2 rigid lorry (2019–2023) alone span 5 l/100 km across its configurations.
The price is an assumption for illustration, not a price we track; use your own. Declared figures compare vehicles with each other on a standard route; they are not what one lorry will use on your roads.

What the difference is worth
The lowest and highest ranked here are 5.5 l/100 km apart (18.2%). At 120,000 km a year and an assumed £1.40 a litre, that is about 6,600 litres a year, or £9,240.
Where it stops mattering: 10 models here are within 10% of the lowest figure, inside the tolerance of declared figures, so the ranking between them is not a reason to choose one over another. The specification ordered matters too: declared figures for the DAF CF 300 FAN alone span 5 l/100 km across its configurations.
The price is an assumption for illustration, not a price we track; use your own. Declared figures compare vehicles with each other on a standard route; they are not what one lorry will use on your roads.
