To determine which car has the greatest efficiency, we should consider the distance traveled per unit of fuel consumed (in kilometers per liter).

Here are the options analyzed:

  1. 1,200 kg car that travels 20 km per liter of fuel

    • Efficiency: 20 km/l
  2. 1,200 kg car that travels 15 km per liter of fuel

    • Efficiency: 15 km/l
  3. 900 kg car that travels 15 km per liter of fuel

    • Efficiency: 15 km/l
  4. 900 kg car that travels 20 km per liter of fuel

    • Efficiency: 20 km/l

From this analysis, the two cars with the highest distance per liter of fuel are the:

  • 1,200 kg car (20 km/l)
  • 900 kg car (20 km/l)

Since both the first and last options travel 20 km per liter, they are equally the most efficient among the given choices.

Thus, the answer is:

1,200 kg car that travels 20 km per liter of fuel (or the 900 kg car that travels 20 km per liter of fuel).
