While at one point I was pretty limited in options when it came to finding a hybrid electric vehicle, today there are many cool vehicles for you to choose from. While all are a step ahead of gasoline engines, some can get better gas mileage, some have better EPA ratings, and some are available at better prices than others. Before you go out and buy a hybrid electric vehicle, you’ll likely want to know a little more about the 2007 hybrid options that are available for you to choose from.
Honda Civic Hybrid
One option you will have when you are ready to choose a hybrid electric vehicle is the Honda Accord Hybrid. You can buy this car starting at $30,000 and it’s a good midsize that will give you plenty of room without being too big. If you go for the hybrid, you’ll have a car that has 253 horsepower, which comes from a V6 engine that has an electric motor to assist it. With this hybrid electric vehicle, you can expect to get around 27 mpg or even slightly better.
Toyota Prius
Another option you can consider when choosing a hybrid electric vehicle is the Toyota Prius. This car has an innovative style that many people love; however, if you need a lot of space, this probably isn’t the car for you. While it seats five, it’s a bit cramped with so many people in the vehicle. The price of the Prius starts at around $22,000, which is a great deal for a hybrid electric vehicle.
Saturn Vue Green Line
The Saturn Vue Green Line is another hybrid electric vehicle you may want to consider. Pricing starts around $22,000 and will probably get between 25 and 28 mpg. The EPA rating is also between 27 and 32, which is excellent. While the Saturn Hybrid hasn’t been around as long as some of the others, it’s still a great option to consider.
Lexus GS450h
If you want luxury in your hybrid electric vehicle, you may want to consider the Lexus GS 450h. One of the highest-rated hybrids for comfort, you’re sure to enjoy the quietness of the vehicle, as well as the many luxurious touches you’ve come to expect from Lexus. You can expect to pay at least $54,000 for this car, and it’ll only get around 22 mpg, too. However, even though the car is expensive, you are still getting an eco-friendly car that also comes with great luxury, so many people may be willing to pay a higher price.
