Best Hybrid AWD SUVs

Hybrid vehicles come in many forms, from cars, pickup trucks, SUVs, MPVs to sports cars. Some focus on energy conservation, while others significantly improve performance through a combination of oil and electricity. Faced with so many hybrid models, it is not easy to distinguish which ones are just performing well and which ones are truly outstanding. Because of this, we have conducted comprehensive and rigorous testing on almost all hybrid models.

The ranking of Car and Driver is based on two major sources: one is the measured instrument data of hundreds of vehicles every year, and the other is the subjective feelings formed by our professional editorial team during actual driving. We ranked the best hybrid models based on approximately 200 data points, covering aspects such as acceleration, handling, comfort, storage space, fuel economy, cost performance and driving pleasure. We attach great importance to rankings because we want you to know the models you are interested in.
