Non-union is good. Non-union made in the USA is even better.

I've seen worse looking cars. More practice than the crappy Volt and I like the color.

Personally, I find Camry's a coma inducing old ladies car.

How much gas do you have to save to replace the batteries in three to five years. That most likely pushes the price well over 32K.

$16,000 LESS than the Government-subsidized Volt, and a MUCH better car.

Whodathunkit....

(US made, non-union)

The profits still go to Japan.

Way too big and not fun to drive - but well-made, reliable, good in a crash, reasonable maintenance and apparently good mileage. Not my kind of car, but a good car.

The Ford Fusion Hybrid is pretty close to that in mpg and price. Not sure which car is roomier, but I’d suspect it would be the Ford. But it’s partially made in Mexico!

I’ve recently begun doing my research in prep for a new car sometime in the coming year. The Fusion was what I seemed to be headed for but this sounds like it may also be a contender.

“Made in USA”?

Doubtful.

More likely, shipped as bulk imported pre-assembled parts, and bolted together in America.

Just saying.
