A premium that pays off quickly

With a price that's as little as $1,750 more than an equivalent V-6 version of the Avalon, the Hybrid is not just the green choice, but the one that makes the most long-term fiscal sense. Especially if you do most of your driving in the city, you could save more than $1,000 on your fuel budget, easily, in a single year.

In other words, this is the kind of green choice that makes sense even to your less Earth-conscious friends.

See the full review at The Car Connection for many more details, as well as more pictures, and a roundup of the feature set, safety-tech, and interior comforts in the new 2013 Toyota Avalon Hybrid.
