Other Choices:

The 2008 Lexus GS 450h is a class in itself. There are no competitors that are hybrids and emphasize performance; the Honda Accord Hybrid was the only other one, but it was discontinued after 2007. The Camry Hybrid and Altima Hybrid are the closest competitors, perhaps, but they're both about half the price of the GS 450h and don't provide anything close to the driving experience. Each of them, however, returns mileage in the 30s. The Mercedes E320 Bluetec might also be considered a competitor by some accounts; it has an attractive, luxurious interior that's roomier than that of the GS, and its torquey turbodiesel engine provides surprisingly good acceleration and conservative EPA highway estimates of 23 mpg city, 32 mpg highway.
