‘Best Deals’ For November: The Month Of Hybrids

Posted at 05:14, 2007-Nov-15

IntelliChoice.com has announced the ‘Best Deals’ for cars, trucks and SUVs for the month of November this year. The leading source for automotive ownership cost and value analysis has included six hybrid vehicles for this month’s list and it only means one thing - hybrids are quickly developing and their popularity is rapidly spreading!

“What consumers need to know is that the best deals can change quickly from month to month. There are seven changes on our list of winners from October to November, which is a big number. Gas is a big factor. Rising fuel costs favor fuel efficient vehicles, including hybrids, and there are six on the November list. Among non-hybrid vehicles, the Yukon knocked out the Sequoia. The Yukon beats the Sequoia on the MPG front, so as fuel costs rise, the opportunity arises to overcome the Sequoia’s strong retained value advantage,” says James Bell, the publisher and editor of IntelliChoice.com.

Here are the hybrid vehicles included in this month’s ‘Best Deals’ from IntelliChoice.com:

• Compact Car over $16,000: Honda Civic Hybrid
  
• Midsize Car over $21,000: Toyota Prius
  
• Compact Utility/Crossover: Ford Escape Hybrid 
  
• Midsize Crossover Toyota: Highlander Hybrid
  
• Midsize Car under $21,000: Toyota Prius
  
• Sport Sedan/Wagon over $38,000: Lexus GS Hybrid
