I found Toyota Prius to be the best . Firstly it has a good gas mileage . I would say 55-50 per gallon . You will never ever get that unless u drive Tesla. Secondly I drove a lot of gas combustible car but I found hybrid to be more powerful and the pickup is solid. Thirdly u will not hear any noise while driving. This car last for more than 500k miles easily . What else do you want ??
This car is little bit expensive even if u prefer to buy it USED. The resale value of Prius is excellent comparing to other cars . For a 100k miles u should be ready to pay at least 13-14 k easily . Less than 50 k it would be around 17-18 k .
