The major selling point of hybrid cars is the fuel economy, which is expressed in miles per gallon. However, the MPG rating is only an estimate done by the EPA. In reality, the actual MPG varies based on road conditions. The real life fuel efficiency along the highway will most likely resemble the estimated MPG rating. The Toyota Prius, which gets about 50 miles per gallon on the highway, is one of the most efficient hybrid cars. However, most hybrid cars rarely reach their estimated city MPG labels.
