Yahoo Autos These Are the Best Hybrid SUVs on Sale Right Now
Just because you want an SUV doesn't mean you'll have to settle for something with lackluster fuel economy. There are dozens of sport utility vehicles for sale right now with hybrid drivetrain options, allowing buyers to save at the pump while getting the space and capability they need. These are our favorite hybrid SUVs.
2024 BMW XM
Price: $159,995
EPA-estimated fuel economy: 73 MPGe combined
The BMW XM is the first model from the company's M performance sub-brand to use hybrid tech. Under the hood sits a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V-8 paired to an electric motor, making a combined 644 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque (or 738 hp and 738 lb-ft on the XM Label). While the garish design is loud and cartoonish, the well-appointed, unique interior and breakneck speed should quell complaints from potential buyers.

2024 BMW X5 xDrive50e
Price: $73,495
EPA-estimated fuel economy: 58 MPGe combined
Weirdly enough, BMW's best all-around products right now are its SUVs. That's doubly true for the hybrid version of the X5, the xDrive50e. It pairs a turbocharged inline-six with a single electric motor for an impressive 483 hp. Factor in the handsome design and slick, modern cabin—both refreshed with new lighting and screens—and you have yourself a winner on all fronts.
Here's our review of the X5 Hybrid
2023 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid and RAV4 Prime
Price: $33,075 (Hybrid); $44,440 (Prime)
EPA-estimated fuel economy: 39 MPG combined (Hybrid); 94 MPGe combined (Prime)
The Toyota RAV4 is far from an enthusiast car, but the more powerful Hybrid is the best RAV4 to drive and the only model that offers the XSE trim with sport-tuned dampers and steering. Not only does it handle better, the RAV4 Hybrid gets up to 41 mpg in the city. The plug-in hybrid variant, the RAV4 Prime, makes a combined 302 hp and up to 42 miles of electric driving thanks to an inline-four and two electric motors, allowing for a 0-60 sprint in the mid-5-second range—quick enough to out-sprint some entry-level sports cars. Sounds like a fun time to us.
2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid
Price: $35,400
EPA-estimated fuel economy: 40/37 MPG combined (FWD/AWD)
The Honda CR-V got a revamp for the 2023 model year, with new looks and a brand-new interior that we love. The hybrid model is the pick of the range, with 204 hp and a combined fuel rating of upt o 40 mpg. As far as "normal" crossovers go, you can't get much better than this.

2024 Toyota Sequoia
Price: $62,870
EPA-estimated fuel economy: 22/20 MPG combined (RWD/4WD)
The Sequoia's only available drivetrain is Toyota's iForce MAX system, which combines a 3.4-liter twin-turbo V-6 with an electric motor between the engine and the 10-speed transmission. There's 437 hp and 583 lb-ft of torque, which is plenty for hauling the kids and their gear to soccer practice. It's also enough to sprint to 60 mph in just 5.6 seconds.

2024 Mazda CX-90 PHEV
Price: $51,320
EPA-estimated fuel economy: 56 MPGe combined
While the plug-in hybrid version of the Mazda CX-90 might not have the straight-six, we still prefer it over the mild-hybrid model. It pairs an inline-four engine to an electric motor and a 17.8-kWh battery pack for 323 horses, plus 26 miles of all-electric range—enough to avoid using gasoline during an average commute.
2024 Volvo XC90 Recharge
Price: $73,195
EPA-estimated fuel economy: 58 MPGe combined
The Volvo XC90 has been on sale for a long time, but we haven't stopped loving it. The Recharge-branded hybrid model is a particularly attractive trim, delivering 455 hp thanks to a turbo-four and an electric motor. The XC90 Recharge is legitimately quick, able to sprint to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds, enough to smoke real performance cars in a straight line.

2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe
Price: $52,590
EPA-estimated fuel economy: 49 MPGe combined
A hybridized Jeep Wrangler sounds like a weird proposition, but in practice, it's the highlight of the range. The 4xe PHEV makes an impressive 375 hp, and thanks to a 17-kWh onboard battery, can go up to 25 miles on purely electric power. Not bad considering the SUV's blocky, anti-aerodynamic shape.
2024 Porsche Cayenne E-Hybrid
Price: $93,350
EPA-estimated fuel economy: 25 MPG combined (est.)
The Cayenne has been given a big refresh for 2024, and the best choice for daily driving remains the E-Hybrid model. It combines the base Cayenne's turbocharged V-6 with an electric motor and a 20.6-kWh battery for 463 total horses, which is respectable for a Porsche.

2024 Land Rover Range Rover P550e
Price: $142,575
EPA-estimated fuel economy: 40 MPGe combined (est.)
The plug-in hybrid version of the 2024 Range Rover also happens to be the second most powerful trim available, just behind the top-tier SV model. While other big-power trims use a BMW-derived V-8, the P550e uses a straight-six combined to an electric motor for a combined 542 hp.
