They’re a great way to save at the pump without the drawbacks of owning an electric vehicle.
The Toyota Prius remains the most fuel-efficient hybrid car not he market, rated at 57 mpg in cityAs full-electric vehicle sales have dipped this year, new-car buyers are instead going all in on hybrids and it’s easy to see why. The best of them deliver peppy performance and stellar fuel economy that translates into low operating costs, with their operating range limited only by the amount of gas in the tank.
Unlike conventionally-powered vehicles that generally register the best fuel economy on the highway, hybrids typically get more miles per gallon in city driving, where the electric motor does most of the heavy lifting, aided by the auto stop-start function. While most hybrid cars, trucks and SUVs still carry price premiums over standard-powered models, that gap has been shrinking steadily, with some mainstream models now at comparative levels. For example, the standard Toyota Corolla starts at $22,175, while the hybrid variant starts at $23,625, which is a markup of just $1,450.
The Environmental Protection Agency says owning one of the top-rated hybrids in the list below would save a motorist between $3,000 and $4,250 in fuel costs over a five-year period, compared to the average new vehicle . Motorists living in parts of the country that suffer higher fuel costs can realize even greater savings at the pump by driving a hybrid.
