#3. 2016 Ford Fusion Hybrid

Combined Gas Mileage: 43 mpg
Price: $25,675

Opening up more head and legroom than many of its competitors, the mid-level Ford Fusion ensures comfort for passengers in the front and in the rear. With 12 cubic feet of cargo space, the vehicle fits everything from luggage to camping equipment. Because it’s a hybrid, the Fusion boasts an impressive 43 mpg — a bit less than its direct rival, Chevy’s Malibu, but at an affordable MSRP (under $26K) that more than compensates for the difference.
