Hybrid vehicles come in many forms, ranging 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. 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 excellent. Because of this, we have conducted a comprehensive test and evaluation of almost every hybrid vehicle.
The ranking of Car and Driver is derived from the large-scale instrument test data we conduct on hundreds of vehicle models every year, as well as the intuitive experience gained by a professional editorial team during actual road driving. We ranked the best hybrid cars based on approximately 200 data points, covering acceleration, handling, comfort, cargo space, fuel efficiency, cost performance and driving pleasure. We take rankings very seriously because we want you to have a comprehensive understanding of every car you are interested in.
