Toyota Prius
2 of 12 from Photos: The Least dirty dozen
Toyota's iconic, egg-shaped hybrid is a familiar sight on the roads today. While the honeymoon period of long waiting lists and massive dealer markups may be ending, the Prius continues to be a hit thanks to its sophisticated parallel hybrid power system and excellent gas mileage. The Prius is rated as an advanced technology partial zero emissions vehicle (AT-PZEV), thanks to its ability to run on either its 500-volt battery pack or its 1.5-liter gasoline engine. If you drive carefully in the city, the EPA reckons you can squeeze 60mpg out of it.
