Used And Economical Cars With 1.4 Engines
Chevrolet Prisma 1.4: Economy With Modern Design
Another model from Chevrolet on the list, the Prisma is the sedan version of the Onix and shares the same mechanical base.
With a naturally aspirated 1.4 engine of up to 106 hp, it combines performance with a design that is still visually appealing.

The Prisma stands out for its excellent highway efficiency: 14.3 km/l on gasoline and 11 km/l on ethanol. In urban cycles, the numbers are more modest: 9.1 km/l (G) and 8 km/l (E).
Chevrolet Cobalt 1.4: Comfort And Economy For Long Trips
Although less remembered, the Chevrolet Cobalt LT or LTZ with a 1.4 naturally aspirated engine is another strong contender among economical cars with 1.4 engines. It delivers up to 102 hp of power with a 5-speed manual transmission.

In urban consumption, it achieves 9.4 km/l with gasoline and 7.2 km/l with ethanol, while on the highway it reaches 12.9 km/l (G) and 9.9 km/l (E). It is a sedan with good interior space and a focus on comfort for trips.
Chevrolet Onix 1.4: The Favorite For Urban Economy
The first-generation Chevrolet Onix (2012 to 2019) is one of the highest-rated economical cars with a 1.4 engine. With LT, LTZ, and Effect versions, it delivers up to 106 hp of power and 13.9 kgfm of torque.

It stands out for urban consumption: 12.4 km/l on gasoline and 8.3 km/l on ethanol. On the highway, the numbers rise to 13.8 km/l (G) and 9.4 km/l (E), making it a great car for everyday use.
Fiat Grand Siena: Space And Economy In The Same Package
Among the economical cars with a 1.4 engine, the Fiat Grand Siena also deserves mention.
The Attractive version offers a more modest performance — with up to 88 hp of power — but provides a good balance between comfort and efficiency.

In terms of consumption, the sedan records 11 km/l (G) and 7.7 km/l (E) in the city, and 13 km/l (G) and 9 km/l (E) on the highway. It is an excellent choice for families seeking interior space and a generous trunk.
Looking Back Is The New Way Forward
With the end of production for naturally aspirated 1.4 engines in Brazil, looking to the past has become a viable — and economical — solution.
All the models mentioned still have a good supply in the used market and deliver a rare combination: mechanical simplicity, affordable maintenance, and, of course, fuel economy.
In times of high gasoline prices, these economical cars remain an intelligent alternative.
