BEST HYBRID SEDANS FOR UNDER $35,000
Techlife News|June 15, 2024
More than ever, buying a hybrid vehicle makes a lot of sense. The latest models are just as powerful ― in some cases, more powerful ― as related gas-only models and have such small price premiums that it's easy to start saving money while reducing your vehicle-based carbon emissions. But what to choose, especially when you're on a tight budget? Consider a hybrid sedan. Compared to an SUV, they typically get better mileage and have a lower starting price. Experts highlight six of the top new hybrid sedans on sale today for under $35,000. They are ordered below by price including the destination charge.
BEST HYBRID SEDANS FOR UNDER $35,000

2024 HYUNDAI ELANTRA HYBRID

Looking for great value? The 2024 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid has the lowest price tag in this category while also piling on a five-year/60,000-mile basic, 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty. Toyota and Honda can't beat that. This hybrid version of Hyundai's small sedan also boasts up to an EPA-estimated 54 mpg combined and comes nicely equipped with many helpful technology features. The main drawback is a lack of power: The 139-horsepower hybrid engine makes passing or accelerating up to highway speeds a bit belabored.

Base starting price: $27,400

2024 TOYOTA PRIUS

The 2024 Toyota Prius is the top-rated hybrid sedan for good reason. Easily identified by its sleek new profile, the latest Prius gets up to an EPA-estimated 57 mpg combined. It's also a lot more powerful than the Elantra Hybrid — it makes up to 196 horsepower - and can be equipped with all-wheel drive to help enhance traction in wintery weather conditions. The Prius has a hatchback-style trunk that makes loading cargo easy. However, the actual cargo area is a little small, and the Prius' rear seat isn't as roomy as the Elantra's.

Base starting price: $29,045

2025 TOYOTA CAMRY
