When I chose this car it was after thoroughly researching the options I had to find something that provided fuel economy but with more luxury details and a lower price than most Hybrids available. This car definitely fit those requirements with the skyactiv engine I get amazing mileage when commuting 70 miles a day to and from work. At the same time I did not want to give up the luxury features, look and feel I was used to which was a big problem I was having with many of the hybrid car options available.
