Best Plug-In Hybrid Subcompact SUVs

Car and Driver's rankings are arrived at from the results of our extensive instrumented testing of several hundred vehicles each year and from our expert editors' subjective impressions gained in real-world driving. We've ranked the best plug-in hybrid (PHEV) subcompact SUVs from the luxury and mainstream categories based on roughly 200 data points encompassing acceleration, handling, comfort, cargo space, fuel efficiency, value, and how enjoyable they are to drive. We take rankings seriously because we want you to know everything about the vehicles that you're interested in. The models here all offer plug-in hybrid powertrains, but the listed base prices may not apply to the PHEV configuration.
