Hybrid models are the obvious choice if you're
looking for impressive fuel-economy, that's because efficiency comes to mind
first when discussing these vehicles. Usually, family-friendly qualities aren't
an initial thought; but they should be. In fact, two green models from the
new
Toyota lineup we're recently awarded as the 'Best Cars for
Families' by the U.S. News and World Report.
At Mark Miller Toyota, we love
when models from our favorite Japanese automaker receive accolades; arguably
those generating from outside the automobile industry are even sweeter because
they are a composite of public opinion. The 'Best Cars for Families' title by
the U.S. News and World Report is no exception.
Designated as the 'Best' by a comprehensive score
reflecting quality, size and family-friendly features the report addresses the
three characteristics differently. In regards to quality, opinions from
industry critics are weighted, as is safety and reliability. Size is
increasingly tangible, directly reflecting the vehicle's interior space.
Finally, family-features are based on the potential of assisting you and your
loved ones.
So, who are the chosen two from
Toyota?
The legendary Toyota
Prius, the Japanese automaker's first hybrid, is the clear
winner as the 'Best Hatchback for Families'. In regards to family-features, the
advanced heads-up display provides a plethora of information on your windshield
so you can keep your eyes on the road.
The roomy, seven-passenger Toyota
Highlander Hybrid is the leader within the Best Hybrid SUV
category. Understandably receiving high marks for size, this SUV also offers
three-zone climate control to create ideal interior temperatures for your
entire family.
