The 11 vehicles with the lowest fuel economy were all exotic sports cars or sedans manufactured by Lamborghini, Bentley, Ferrari and Maserati. The Ford F150 pickup was 12th on the list of vehicles with the lowest fuel economy, at 12 mpg in the city.

Dan Becker, a spokesman for the Sierra Club, said the report is incomplete because it doesn't collect figures on some of the largest vehicles on the road. General Motors Corp.'s Hummer H2, for example, weighs 8,600 pounds, which is 100 pounds over the limit for vehicles included in the report.
