Kia's compact SUV starts at $28,990 for 2027, adds front-drive hybrid trims and a better-equipped X-Line, and keeps a 12.3-inch touchscreen on every version.

Comparison
A $29,700 Camry LE hybrid is EPA-rated at 51 mpg combined and offers AWD. The Accord answers with a roomier back seat, a bigger trunk and Google built-in on its top trim.

Feature
Eight generations and more than a million cars later, Porsche's rear-engine icon has gone hybrid without abandoning the flat-six formula that debuted in Frankfurt in 1963.

Comparison
Both Korean three-row SUVs are new, both earn IIHS Top Safety Pick+ and both offer a 329-hp hybrid. The Telluride wins on cargo room, base price and hybrid towing.

Lexus
Lexus drops the gas-only NX, gives the 450h+ more battery capacity and standard DC fast charging, and retunes the chassis ahead of a launch by the end of 2026.

Toyota
Toyota's lifted sedan moves its XLE, Limited and Nightshade grades to THS 5, rated at 40 mpg combined, while the 340-hp Hybrid MAX Platinum tops the range at $55,190.
