Electric/Hybrid Car Advice needed

Post by Inuyasha »

I'm in the market for a new car, thinking about going eco friendly.

Been researching and was liking the Nissan Leaf until I found that it can only got 84 miles on a full charge. Perfect for a commuter car, but say I want to drive it farther out or take my family on a road trip, guess it would not be the right car.

Prius? Chevy Volt? Any of you guys drive any of these? Not in the market for a Tesla.

Fusion? Good fuel economy, much better looks than other cars out there. My dad has a Lexus hybrid if you really want luxury, though given the Tesla comment I imagine you don't want that price range. Anyway, despite the Lexus being a hybrid, my gas powered Toyota gets better mileage.

For me, the cars I'd be thinking about would either be the Tesla (great lines but the big downside is all electric making it literally a non-starter for long trips) and the Fusion.
