Hybrid vehicles come in many forms, from cars, pickup trucks, SUVs, MPVs, and even sports cars. Some models focus on fuel economy, while others use a combination of gasoline and electricity to significantly improve performance. Faced with so many hybrid models on the market, it is not easy to distinguish which ones are just "not bad" and which ones are truly "outstanding". This is why we conduct comprehensive testing of almost all hybrid models.
The ranking of Car and Driver is derived from the large number of professional instrument test data we conduct on hundreds of models every year, as well as the intuitive experience gained by our senior editors in actual driving. We select the best hybrid car based on approximately 200 data points, which cover acceleration performance, handling, comfort, cargo space, fuel efficiency, cost performance and driving pleasure. We have a rigorous and serious attitude towards rankings because we want you to have a comprehensive understanding of every car you care about.
