Searching for a vehicle that’s kind to the planet and your finances? Hybrids provide impressive fuel efficiency and fewer emissions. Purchasing a used hybrid allows you to reap these advantages at a fraction of the cost of a new car.

2021–2023 Honda Accord Hybrid – Midsize Sedan

The Honda Accord Hybrid combines classic Honda reliability with the latest hybrid technology. Known for its spacious and user-friendly interior, this midsize sedan offers exceptional fuel economy without sacrificing comfort or functionality. It delivers an impressive fuel economy of 44–51 mpg city/highway combined and a driving range of up to 614 miles on a full tank. The Touring trim includes advanced features such as adaptive suspension, heated rear seats, Wi-Fi capabilities, and a head-up display. In terms of safety, the Accord Hybrid earns top scores from both IIHS and NHTSA.

Opting for a used vehicle is a fantastic decision, as it still holds impressive crash safety scores and boasts features that make everyday driving more enjoyable, delivering dependable and efficient performance. Expect the price for a used model to be around $20,000.

2021–2023 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid – Small SUV

The Toyota RAV4 Hybrid is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a fuel-efficient SUV. With standard all-wheel drive (AWD) and better fuel economy than the gas model, it’s ideal for used hybrid buyers. It delivers 40 mpg combined and a range of up to 580 miles. The spacious interior offers plenty of room for passengers and cargo, perfect for road trips.

The XLE Premium trim stands out with features like a power moonroof, power liftgate, and faux leather seats. Buying used makes the RAV4 Hybrid even more appealing, combining comfort, capability, and efficiency. Mid-level trims like the XLE Premium offer great value, while the Limited trim adds luxury with perks like an 11-speaker JBL audio system. Used models typically range from $30,000 to $38,000.

2023 Toyota Prius – OG Eco Star

The Toyota Prius has been a hybrid icon since its debut, and the 2023 redesign improves its eco-friendly legacy with sleek looks and advanced fuel efficiency.

There’s also the Prius Prime plug-in hybrid, which provides up to 25 miles of electric range.

Buying a gently used 2023 Prius can save $1,000–$2,000 while still offering the latest styling and technology. Used prices range from $23,000 to $29,000. With its versatile liftback design, the Prius is perfect for carrying groceries, gear, or anything else you need.

2023 Ford Maverick – Hybrid Pickup Truck

Who said hybrids can’t haul? The 2023 Ford Maverick is a great choice for anyone seeking a compact, fuel-efficient pickup. With 37 mpg combined and a range of 511 miles, it’s perfect for lighter truck tasks. The tech-forward Lariat trim adds features like a B&O sound system, leather seats, and Ford Co-Pilot360 driver assistance.

The Maverick offers impressive utility for its size at an affordable price, with used models ranging from $26,000 to $40,000. If you’re after a hybrid with pickup versatility, the Maverick deserves a look.

2023 Kia Niro – Compact yet Efficient Crossover

If fuel economy is your priority, the Kia Niro is a great pick. This compact crossover offers excellent gas mileage, plenty of space, and a budget-friendly alternative to the Prius.

With up to 53 mpg combined and a driving range of 588 miles, it’s efficient and practical. The EX trim stands out with dual 10.25-inch screens, wireless smartphone integration, and adaptive cruise control. The plug-in hybrid version adds 26 miles of all-electric range.
