Toyota’s 2016 Prius C hybrid subcompact allows those with modest budgets to own a clean, green, reliable machine that can be nicely equipped for around $25,000. Despite its smaller size, the efficient design still leaves lots of interior room for passengers and cargo.
If good fuel economy is more important than a hybrid nametag, fuel-efficient cars such as the Ford Focus SFE, Honda Fit and Chevy Spark are more fun to drive and cost even less than the Prius C. The C is not very powerful and sometimes struggles at higher speeds.
