With its 53-mile range, the Chevrolet Volt remains tops among plug-in extended-range electrics.
Shoppers are likely to also take a look at the Toyota Prius and Prius Prime, the latter of which offers up less electric-only range—albeit with a "look at me" shape that may appeal to style-conscious eco-drivers.
The Hyundai Sonata Plug-In Hybrid and Ford Fusion Energi take a more conventional approach than the Volt.
They're not as high-tech, but they also perform normal car duties just a little better thanks to their roomier interiors and larger trunks, not to mention shapes that don't stand out from the crowd at all.
