Answer:

closer to 22 mpg

Fuel-efficiency is the ability of a car to extract energy from fuel.The more the energy the car can extract from fuel, the greater fuel-efficiency the car has.Heavier vehicles require more energy to move because inertia and rolling resistance is high, leading to high fuel consumption.Reducing weight improves vehicle's efficiency.
