Hybrid cars combine flexible gasoline and clean electric driving into one seamless package, giving drivers the best of both worlds. We've rounded up the greenest (and the meanest) of 2016.

Not content to rest on its laurels, the Prius continues to improve with an EPA-estimated 56 combined mpg.

2016 Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid
This big boy will cruise to the tune of 46 combined mpg and look good doing it.
2017 Chevrolet Volt
