6. 2015 Toyota Avalon Hybrid

Starting price: $36,660

The 2015 Toyota Avalon Hybrid is one of the most affordable and safe large family cars on the market today. The car is rated as having an above average interior and has an extremely smooth drive. The car sees a 40 MPG equivalent for gas mileage out of a 2.5 liter four-cylinder engine that is mated with an electric motor and is rated at 200 horsepower. The Avalon Hybrid has a CVT transmission, and the car merges the best elements from the Camry Hybrid and the Lexus ES 300h. Those looking to save costs find the hybrid version of the Avalon more attractive than the gasoline powered version since it sees more than 16 MPG a gallon better gas mileage, and the company is planning to upgrade the overall design of the vehicle in future model versions.
