The latest results cover a mix of SUVs, passenger cars and utes, with 11 of the 21 vehicles tested delivering fuel consumption within 5% of lab test results, while eight exceeded their lab test fuel consumption by 6% or more. Conversely, the AAA found that two vehicles had on-road fuel consumption 10% to 13% lower than their lab results.

Other carmakers in the AAA report were contacted for comment.
