2. Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid and Lexus UX 300h (5.6 L/100 km)
The gas-powered Toyota Corolla Cross is a fine little crossover with generous cargo capacity and a dependable engine, but the hybrid variant is definitely worth the premium. It generates an extra 27 horsepower, sprints from 0-100 km/h a full two seconds quicker, operates more smoothly and will save you about 2 L/100 km. The Lexus UX 300h, which is revised for 2025, features the same powertrain.
