Off the top of my head i can only think of two practical cars at this point:
a) Civic Hybrid
b) Jetta/Beetle TDI
They're both in the $19k range for the base units and go between 45-50mpg. I know power shouldn't be an issue when it comes to eco-friendly cars but i think it should still be worth discussing a bit.
Between these two i think the Civic would be the most friendly (e.g. gas/electric hybrid) but the TDI definitely has more kick and, if one were to choose the wagon, more practical for a family - it would probably also be better suited to city driving due to the better low-end torque.
If you were to choose, which one would you get/suggest?
Thanks
