For context, the average new vehicle sold in the United States produces approximately 400 grams of CO2 per mile, meaning this XK Convertible has higher-than-average emissions in this regard.
The estimated annual fuel cost for this vehicle is $3,850, based on 15,000 miles of driving per year and current national average fuel prices. Compared to the average new vehicle, you would save $8,500 over a 5-year period.
