    Your Vehicle Year:
    2006 Prius
    Best fuel economy
    Toyota Prius
    Source: EPA

    According to EPA estimates, the Toyota Prius is the most fuel-efficient vehicle sold in the U.S. The Prius also happens to be a comfortable and practical family car.

    You probably won't get the EPA-rated mileage of 60 in the city and 51 on the highway, but you probably wouldn't get the EPA-rated mileage in any other vehicle, either. (And, no, those EPA mileage ratings are not backwards.)

    With production finally starting to keep up with demand, the Prius is now available without a long waiting list. Don't expect to get one for less than sticker, though.

    You can actually get one for below MSRP.

    Kinda old news.

    Looks like the Camry got a nod as best selling car last year, with a mention to the hybrid option.
    Since it's from Edmunds, I sort of expected them to spread misinformation about the hybrid drivetrain, and they delivered.

    It's fairly easy to accelerate up to 40mph on electric power alone, if you've got a fairly level stretch of road, and a high state of charge on the battery... and you have a soft foot.
