How this list is built
Every line below is read from the list definition that produced the table.
- Classes: every EPA class except special-purpose vehicles.
- Powertrains: Plug-in hybrid.
- Ranked by EPA electric range, highest first.
- One row per model (make and model): the configuration that ranks best in this list is shown, with its trim, engine and drive named in the row.
- Ties are decided on the displayed value (whole MPG or miles, kWh per 100 miles to one decimal, cost rounded to $10): tied models share a rank, then are ordered by a tie-breaker and by name.
- Special-purpose vehicles, such as heavy-duty variants, are excluded.
- Electric vehicles are ranked separately (see the EV rankings): gas, hybrid and diesel MPG is never mixed with MPGe.
- Plug-in hybrids are costed with the EPA utility factor: the share of driving done on electricity.
- Model years MY2022 to MY2026; a year is listed only when at least 10 models qualify.

Are electric cars and plug-in hybrids included?
Not in this list. MPG rankings cover gas, hybrid and diesel models only. Electric cars are ranked in EV range and EV efficiency, and plug-in hybrids in electric range.
What is electric range on a plug-in hybrid?
The distance the car can drive on its battery alone before the gasoline engine helps. After that it drives like a regular hybrid at its gas MPG.
