23. Toyota Prius
It almost goes without saying that the eco-friendly Prius offers exceptional fuel economy. It can go more than 50 miles on one gallon of gas, which Consumer Reports says is “among the best mileage for a car that doesn’t have to be plugged in.”
The 2020 model scores high marks with Consumer Reports not only for reliability but also for owner satisfaction. J.D. Power also notes this gas-electric hybrid has an exceptional resale value and one of the main benefits of owning a Prius is the driving experience. The 2020 model delivers on its promise of a quiet, comfortable ride, with improved braking and handling. Its modern look and updated interior finishes make the 2020 Prius a completely appealing vehicle.
