The latest new car reviews 

Frequently driving in 40-degree weather with the heat cranked, I averaged an astonishing 47 MPG over a week of mostly highway driving, hilly highway driving at that. That’s genuinely impressive and beats recent Priuses for mileage which benefited from more favorable conditions.

Despite the excellent fuel economy of Toyota’s compact hybrid crossover, the niche it fills (half-full) is simply too narrow to earn a mainstream recommendation.
