Yep I finally upgraded my 2003 Renault Kangoo for a station wagon that's bigger, carries more, probably heavier (don't actually know) but uses much less fuel. It has a tiny 1L ecoboost engine that still packs a punch when needed and barely uses any more fuel than our much smaller hybrid hatchback with the way I drive it, which admittedly I do drive in a particularly fuel conscious manner.
