2020 Karma Revero GT

Overview

The Karma Revero GT sedan takes two seemingly opposed concepts --environmental sustainability and over-the-top luxury -- and blends them in an attractive, unique car. Its plug-in hybrid powertrain can run up to 80 miles without a drop of gas. The solar roof offers extra driving range on sunny days. Karmas are crafted in California, providing a lavish feel with sustainably-sourced materials, minimally colored leathers, and haptic-touch screens. The Karma Revero GT is a 4-seater vehicle that comes in 1 trim levels. The most popular style is the Sedan, which starts at $146,600 and comes with a Plug-In Hybrid 1.5L I3 Turbo engine and Rear Wheel Drive. This Revero GT is estimated to deliver 70 MPG combined.

Pros

  • Powerful and versatile drivetrain accelerates fast
  • Luxurious cabin celebrates sustainable materials
  • One of the rarest and most exclusive new cars

Cons

  • Higher starting price than many luxury vehicles
  • Lacks rivals’ electric range and driver technology
  • Small rear seat for a premium full-size sedan

Overall Assessment

Karma has always forged its own path when it comes to building cars. This has led the California automaker to produce some of the most exciting vehicles on the market. The Karma Revero GT is the latest iteration of the brand’s unique approach. Its emphasis on sustainability shows in its alternative-fuel driving capabilities and carefully-sourced cabin materials. Buyers can configure their Revero GT to their specifications, guaranteeing that their already-rare car is one-of-a-kind. There are some less appealing aspects in Karma’s efforts to be the ultimate eco-luxury car, like the marginal rear seat and cargo room. Some modern electric sedans can beat the Karma’s driving range without a gas engine’s help. But Karma continues its quest of catering to a select audience of people who want a captivating and unique driving experience unlike anything else.

2022 Volvo S60 Recharge

Overview

Volvo has announced it will be moving all of its cars and SUVs to hybrid and electric platforms in the coming years, and the S60 Recharge is at the core of this mission. Volvo takes its sophisticated midsize sedan and gives it a plug-in powertrain that can run on gas or electricity. And with 400 hp on tap, this is a sports sedan for the modern age. The Volvo S60 Recharge is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 4 trim levels. The most popular style is the Inscription, which starts at $51,695 and comes with a Plug-In Hybrid 2.0L I4 S/C and Turbo engine and All Wheel Drive. This S60 Recharge is estimated to deliver 30 MPG combined.

Configure a new car

Pros

  • Cabin materials and craftsmanship
  • Quick acceleration
  • Standard all-wheel drive
  • Great fuel economy

Cons

  • Average electric range
  • Pricey with options added
  • Not as spry as German rivals

Overall Assessment

It may not have the most extended electric range in its class, but the Volvo S60 Recharge is one of the most attractive entrants in the hybrid universe. It takes Volvo’s trusted midsize platform and boosts the fuel economy without hindering performance. All-wheel drive comes standard, as does a suite of safety features. It’s a very comfortable sedan to live with, though Volvo’s secure handling doesn’t translate into real fun like the German competition. But if safety, speed, and style are all of importance to you, the S60 Recharge could be worth the time.

2021 Volvo S60

Overview

Volvo's safety innovations make their way into the spacious and comfortable S60 sedan. While it is not as focused on sporty handling as German competitors, the S60 offers one of the most beautiful interiors in its class, with rich materials and a quiet ride. Fun isn't out of the question; Volvo offers plug-in hybrid engines producing over 400 hp. But the S60 remains best-suited for daily driving bliss, with safety tech for extra peace of mind. The Volvo S60 is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 7 trim levels. The most popular style is the Recharge T8 Plug-in Hybrid R-Design Expression eAWD, which starts at $48,695 and comes with a Plug-In Hybrid 2.0L I4 S/C and Turbo engine and All Wheel Drive. This S60 is estimated to deliver 30 MPG combined.

Configure a new car

Pros

  • Elegant exterior design
  • Beautiful interior with great seats
  • Impressive standard safety features
  • Blends secure handling with a quiet ride

Cons

  • Not as sporty to drive as rivals
  • Limited cargo capacity

Overall Assessment

Shoppers in the market for a compact luxury car should add the Volvo S60 to their test-drive list. It comes with one of the most comfortable interiors in its class, crafted from high-quality materials and displaying meticulous attention to detail. The seats are very comfortable. Volvo also includes a nice blend of technology and safety features on each level, and a potent plug-in hybrid powertrain is available for those wanting a bit of performance. The S60 feels stable at speed, but it lacks the razor-sharp handling of sports sedans in its class. Despite that, it provides comfortable and safety-focused transportation for the family that is hard to match.

The Swedish brand's full-size luxury car uses minimalist design and high-quality materials to provide comfortable and refined everyday transportation.

2021 Honda Clarity

Overview

In the pursuit of better fuel efficiency, the Honda Clarity is one of the most futuristic choices available. Offered in plug-in hybrid or hydrogen fuel cell variants, the Clarity offers unprecedented versatility. Its unique body styling helps improve gas mileage, while the ride is quiet and comfortable, even at highway speeds. Honda’s trademark refinement and practicality show through in the cabin. Several driver safety aids are standard. The Honda Clarity is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 2 trim levels. The most popular style is the Plug-In Hybrid, which starts at $34,415 and comes with a Plug-In Hybrid 1.5L I4 engine and Front Wheel Drive. This Clarity is estimated to deliver 42 MPG combined.

Configure a new car

Pros

  • Comfortable, user-friendly cabin
  • Excellent electric driving range
  • Standard driver safety features
  • Hyper-efficient hydrogen variant

Cons

  • Fuel cell impacts cargo capacity
  • Unconventional exterior styling
  • Not as sporty to drive as rivals

Overall Assessment

Under its unconventional body styling, the Honda Clarity is a surprisingly practical car. Its available powertrains offer superb efficiency for everyday drivers, with active safety tech to help prevent accidents from occurring. Honda’s signature refinement shines through in a user-friendly cabin. Rear-seat legroom is not enough for tall adults, but the seats are comfortable and soft leather is available. The Clarity competes against electric vehicles that have longer gas-free driving ranges. It can be a challenge tracking down hydrogen refueling stations for the Fuel Cell. Despite those deficits, the Clarity packs a lot of versatility and innovation into an easy-to-use package, backed by Honda’s impressive reputation.

2022 BMW 3 Series

Overview

If you had to buy one car that could do it all, the BMW 3 Series would be an excellent choice. It delivers high levels of performance, refinement, and efficiency in a stylish package. The BMW 3 Series is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 3 trim levels. The most popular style is the 330e Plug-In Hybrid RWD, which starts at $43,945 and comes with a Plug-In Hybrid 2.0L I4 Turbo engine and Rear Wheel Drive. This 3 Series is estimated to deliver 28 MPG combined.

Configure a new car

Pros

  • Refined and athletic chassis
  • Great engines
  • Surprisingly fuel-efficient

Cons

  • Interior lacks pizzazz
  • Some competitors offer better value

Overall Assessment

The BMW 3 Series, now in its seventh generation, has long been the sport sedan standard-bearer. Since its last redesign (for 2019), it has delivered on that reputation in spades, offering not only a delightfully engaging driving experience with best-in-class engines and spirited handling but also adding high levels of refinement and comfort. It used to be that you bought a Mercedes-Benz C-Class for luxury, an Audi A4 for technology, and a BMW 3 Series for performance. But now the 3 Series does it all quite well, though performance is still its strongest suit. With prices ranging from the low-$40,000s for a base 330i to more than $60,000 for a loaded M340i, the 3 Series is certainly not cheap. Newcomers like the all-electric Tesla Model 3 and the Genesis G70 challenge the 3 Series in terms of performance and value. But the 3 Series still provides the complete package: a fun, efficient, and comfortable sedan that's more than the sum of its parts.

2021 Audi A8

Overview

A full-size luxury sedan built to carry four people in total comfort, the Audi A8 brings together all of the German automaker's expertise in one machine. Crafting its cabin from high-quality materials, the A8 remains quiet at speed, riding on an auto-leveling air suspension. Passengers sitting in the back have limo-like space and available power-reclining and massage. It is still sporty like an Audi, with turbocharged engines and all-wheel-drive. The Audi A8 is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 2 trim levels. The most popular style is the Plug-In Hybrid L, which starts at $96,945 and comes with a Plug-In Hybrid 3.0L V6 Turbo engine and All Wheel Drive. This A8 is estimated to deliver 21 MPG in the city and 27 MPG on the highway.

Configure a new car

Pros

  • Quiet cabin packed with luxury
  • Excellent rear-seat legroom
  • Impressive standard technology
  • Secure and sporty to drive

Cons

  • Some rivals look more exclusive
  • Plug-in hybrid's short electric range
  • Limited trunk space

Overall Assessment

Taking a more understated approach than its showier competitors, the Audi A8 is an ultra-luxury sedan for those who want sophisticated style and classic comfort. It comes standard with a generous list of standard features, some of which are hard to find in other cars. The leather-lined cabin is exceptionally quiet, bolstering the car's smooth ride and effortless power. The A8 is surprisingly fun to drive, too, with agile handling and a rally-derived all-wheel-drive system. But this is a car meant for traveling around town and on the highway, coddling passengers with plush seats and top-shelf materials. Audi also does technology better than almost anyone, though some competitors look glitzier and more expensive. Yet, this understated quality is what separates the Audi from other high-end cars, providing passengers with all of the amenities they could want in a civilized package built to handle daily life.

2022 BMW 5 Series

Overview

The BMW 5 Series brings competence and confidence to your daily drive while delivering infotainment technology superior to many of its peers. It is spirited and yet luxurious, business class in a sedan package. The BMW 5 Series is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 4 trim levels. The most popular style is the 530e Plug-In Hybrid RWD, which starts at $56,545 and comes with a Plug-In Hybrid 2.0L I4 Turbo engine and Rear Wheel Drive. This 5 Series is estimated to deliver 25 MPG combined.

Configure a new car

Pros

  • Powerful range of engines
  • Agile, yet still comfortable on the highway
  • Top-notch infotainment system

Cons

  • Not as sporty as some of its competitors
  • Rear seats are not comfortable for taller passengers

Overall Assessment

Combining a spacious interior, loads of technology, and solid performance, the BMW 5 Series is a midsize luxury sedan that does everything well. It's not quite as sporty as it used to be, but it's still an athletic car that can be driven quickly with little effort. A range of engines means you can choose from an efficient four-cylinder, plug-in hybrid, or a turbocharged V8. Rear-wheel drive is still the standard, but all-wheel drive is also an option for dealing with cold-weather climates.

Continual improvement to BMW's iDrive infotainment system has resulted in a system that's intuitive to use and more helpful than you might expect. Although Detroit got out of the luxury-sedan business a few years back, the 5 Series still has plenty of viable competition. Whether it's the luxury-meets-performance Mercedes-Benz E-Class, techno-filled Audi A6, racy and stylish [Jaguar XF](/jaguar/xf /), or the Scandinavian cool of the Volvo S90, there are plenty of choices in the premium midsize-sedan segment.

2022 BMW 7 Series

Overview

The BMW 7-series is the largest and most pampering sedan in the German luxury brand’s lineup. It trades in the enthusiastic speed and handling of smaller BMW cars for a soft, quiet ride and smooth powertrain choices, including hybrid and V12 options.

The BMW 7 Series is a 5-seater vehicle that comes in 5 trim levels. The most popular style is the 745e xDrive Plug-In Hybrid, which starts at $96,895 and comes with a Plug-In Hybrid 3.0L I6 Turbo engine and All Wheel Drive.
