8 Hybrid Cars And SUVs That Are Surprisingly Fun To Drive

Hybrid cars do not get the recognition they deserve for being fun to drive. People write them off as being a boring car that only hipsters ride around in. True, they are not designed to do any major off-roading. But the hybrid battery can store energy normally lost while braking to give it an extra fun boost while accelerating. Do not pass up the chance to whip through the city with one of these eight hybrid cars and SUVs that are surprisingly fun to drive.

The 2016 Lexus CT 200h is one of the more stylish hybrids available, which makes it more fun to drive than a Prius. It is the perfect car for those looking to save on gas while still enjoying a luxurious interior. Although the engine only puts out 134 horsepower, the F Sport package contains wheel and suspension upgrades that perk things up a bit. It is entertaining on curvy mountain roads and has impressive momentum that easily transfers over to city driving.

2016 Ford Fusion Hybrid

The 2016 Ford Fusion Hybrid is more engaging than other hybrids in its class, making it fun and somewhat of a challenge to drive. It gets an estimated forty-two miles per gallon in combined city and highway mileage, so there is no need to stop off for gas on road trips. Notable standard features include a backup camera, automatic air conditioning, an electronic stability system, and a 2.0 four-cylinder gas and electric motor with 188 combined horsepower.
