Toyota hybrids, like Priuses, if they can fit into your lifestyle/driving needs, can be a good solution. Its also a car you can as an amateur, easily change out the battery pack on your own and make an old prius new, without breaking the bank.

Prius is one of the ugliest cars ever made.

I read where people were opening up the battery packs and measuring each of the individual cells and only replacing the bad ones. It sounds like a few bad ones can be replaced for relatively low cost and stretch the battery’s life.
