Electric hybrid adds cost, but boosts fuel efficiency, smooths power ... When Jeep launched the Grand Cherokee 30 years ago it was among the first luxury sport-utility vehicles on the market that still was affordable (not a Rover) and capable of off-roading. Jeep continues to make its Grand Cherokee as off-road worthy as anything, including... Continue Reading →
Tip-top Tundra a giant luxury pickup with a touch of hybrid help ... By definition Toyota can’t top its latest Tundra, dubbed the Capstone CrewMax, and it certainly would be difficult.

Camry Hybrid may just be the perfect family sedan ...

Ford's hybrid F-150 SuperCrew is all the pickup a person can use ... Driving the new Ford F-150 SuperCrew Lariat was like déjà vu all over again. Doesn’t happen often, but I got to test drive the new hybrid version of Ford’s most popular (in fact North America’s most popular) vehicle for a second time... Continue Reading →
Hybrid power, interior comfort and awesome MPG = winner! Hard as it may be to believe, Toyota’s ground-breaking hybrid, the Prius, has been around for 25 years.

Hybrid Sorento a family hauler with a smaller carbon footprint ... Families looking for economy, but needing people-hauling ability, and whose social consciousness nags them about cutting their carbon footprint, should be dancing a conga line toward Kia dealers for a Sorento Hybrid.
