MPG is what matters most to me, I have tested Elantra 2023 hybrid I liked how it looked, the interior, and insane 53 MPG though I have read that the engine may catch on fire if parked inside so there's a recall! Most reviews say Elantra, civic, and mazda 3 are the top picks. I'll take all considerations, thank you.

Yeah Prius or a civic would be your best bet

I can look up reviews but I joined here for insight or indepth advice on why one car is better than another

#

is this something that makes Elantras automatic no buy?

I thought you said gas mileage is the most important factor.

#

Best priced hybrid you can get is the Corolla

If you break it down to these 4 choices, you have this (might be a little inaccurate, just going off google) ;

Integra - $32-34K USD msrp

  • 200HP from a 1.5L engine
  • 30/37 mpg - 33mpg
  • 12.4 Gallon gas tank

Civic - $24-29K USD msrp

  • 180HP from a 2.0L
  • 37/40 mpg - 40mpg
  • 12.4 gallon gas tank

Accord - $28-31K USD msrp

  • 192HP from a 1.5L engine
  • 46/41 mpg - 44mpg
  • 14.8 gallon gas tank

Corolla hybrid - $24-26K USD msrp

  • 96HP from a 1.8L engine
  • 53/46 mpg - 50mpg
  • 11.4 gallon gas tank

Corolla hybrid you get the most bang for your buck for. of course these cars all have different engines and trims and this is just one from each but regardless the rolly sounds like a good choice and you'll have tons of money leftover. Plus the styling on the corolla is sick TCC_gigachad

#

If you wanna save money when buying a car, and then save more with gas, corolla is the option to pick

#

Hybrids also have the cool acceleration boost afaik

my neighbor has a corolla and it looks sick. Toyota really outdid themselves with the design, if you can snag one in white, black, or red those are prob the best colors on it

#

I really want a corolla hatch. I plan to slam it on its nuts destroying the reliability aspect of the car but still very cool cars

If Toyota turned this concept into reality, everybody would go crazy 😳

ebon jasper
#

have you seen the black prius concept lmao

#

"bullying works"

#

The prius is so cheap i can just imagine they'd sell that for like less then $35K

Gotta figure out who just got hired in the design department and give him a raise

They have had rod bearing and oil lubrication issues with their engines since the dawn of time. Why you may ask? Because they build their cars as cheap as possible lol.
