Ranking of hybrid cars - how they compare
league table of hybrid cars are hard to find.
First, is that many hybrids on the market to compare. And secondly, are available in different sizes and shapes, ranging from hybrid cars is very difficult.
How do you rate classification, for example, a small Toyota Prius, a luxury sedan Lexus LS compared to a full size Chevy Silverado? Unlike its hybrid cars, which have little in common.
However, it is importantCompare before you buy. Therefore, love is always a challenge, here is my ranking of hybrid cars which helped me a lot when shopping.
First, take a look at hybrid cars sold in the first six months of 2006. According to edmunds.com, the range as follows:
Toyota Prius - 48,156 units
Toyota Highlander Hybrid - 18 127 units
Honda Civic Hybrid - 15 755 units
Lexus RX 400h - 11,193 units
Ford Escape Hybrid - 10 190 units
Toyota Camry* Hybrid - 7,386 units
Honda Accord Hybrid - 3,245 units
Mercury Mariner Hybrid - 1461 units
Lexus GS 450h - 525 units
10. Honda Insight - 489 units
* (The Toyota Camry Hybrid was released again in May 2006, but sales in May and June were exceeded only by the Prius.)
It 's easy to see that Toyota hybrids are the best sellers. Prius and Highlander, for example, accounted for 50% of total U.S. hybrid. When you add in the futureThe figures of the new Camry is to increase this share, and Toyota dominate clearly.
The Honda Insight was introduced in 2000 for the first time, sales of Honda hybrid cars have grown by over 2,000%. In 2005, more than 205,000 vehicles sold, as we have seen about 250,000 sold in 2006.
Hybrids still only 1% of the total market for American cars, but most experts predict that will change quickly. It 's easy to see why. For economic, environmental andFor political reasons, more and more people are looking for economy cars. And the top ten fuel efficient cars were the first three cars Green. They were:
Honda Insight - 60 mpg city and 66 mpg highway
Toyota Prius - 60 mpg city and 51 mpg highway
