2010 Nissan Altima Hybrid price $26,780. I kept coming back to the Nissan Altima. I like the idea of a hybrid vehicle as well. The Hybrid Altima seems to be a jack of all trades and master of none. Vehicle cost is actually MUCH lower than those of other new hybrids with Nissan’s dealer and customer incentives (this can be up to $7,500). Fuel economy is great for a mid-sized (close to full-size) car but well below other hybrids (except for the SUV hybrids, of course). The car has amazing power for a hybrid (reportedly even accelerates faster than it’s own non-hybrid counterpart). The standard feature set is amazing as well – keyless ignition, keyless entry, security system, 6-speaker AM/FM/CD Radio, eCVT transmission, etc. Although I have heard some complain about how they don’t want all that stuff – well, they can get another car. Reliability is an issue. Read more…

2010 Honda Civic Hybrid price $23,800 – $27,000. Horsepower: I thought I was getting a car that would save on gas. What I got was a car that was passed by a 13 year old on a Honda spree. Tighter spaces, less horsepower( much slower), less Miles per gallon. Honda used to make the best MPG cars not now. There is no reason to buy the hybrid over the regular civic. The hybrid is way underpowered. The electric motor does not move the car, the gas engine does, so why call it a hybrid. Read more…
