The greenest new car you can buy isn’t a fully electric vehicle — it’s a plug-in hybrid Toyota Prius.
Despite having a gas engine, the Toyota Prius Prime SE is apparently better for the environment than many fully electric vehicles.
That’s according to a new report from the American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy (ACEEE) that ranks 2024 model year cars based on a “green score” that assesses the emissions and pollution of a vehicle. In addition to the emissions from driving the vehicle, the scores also factor in emissions from the production of the vehicle.
