Lexus CT
Here is a hybrid with the reliability of the Toyota Prius and enhanced with a little more elegance. The CT offers a sportier ride, a more luxurious interior and much more equipment than the Prius from which the entire mechanical package is sourced. Unfortunately, luxury carries a toll and the vehicle’s weight is slightly, causing its performance to suffer accordingly. Keep in mind the F Sport package does not add more power as it is mostly esthetic. Barring these details, the CT remains a very nice combination.
