Take the number of cars on the market by type.

Find fuel consumption delta between SUV/truck and compact/midsize.

Multiply fuel delta by number of SUV/trucks.

Multiply by average number of miles per year.

That's the total fuel consumption delta.

Fuel price is trickier since there are supply side concerns as well.
