  • Some hybrid cars get over 600 miles of driving range.
  • Vehicles with high driving ranges are great for commuting and road trips.
  • One Toyota hybrid has the highest driving range of all hybrid cars.

Hybrid cars are capable of traveling for long distances using as little fuel as possible. Thanks to advancements in hybrid technology, American car buyers have access to some of the most efficient cars ever made. Some of these hybrid cars are capable of traveling for over 600 miles on a single tank of gas.

Though some automakers were earlier to the hybrid game, most major automakers now produce hybrid-only nameplates or hybrid versions of their most popular nameplates. Some brands produce mild-hybrid versions of popular vehicles as well. One hybrid car has the highest range of all, and it's getting plenty of attention in 2025.

Toyota introduced its first-ever mass-produced hybrid car, the Prius, back in 1997. Decades later, hybrid cars, trucks, and SUVs are common in the portfolios of successful automakers. In fact, Toyota has completely axed several gas nameplates in its portfolio, replacing them with hybrid-only models.

Toyota's Camry nameplate is now a hybrid-only midsize car. The Camry is a best-selling nameplate for the company due to its affordability, roomy cabin, and excellent fuel economy. It has been completely redesigned for 2025 with updated styling, better tech, and best-in-class driving range.

The 2025 Toyota Camry achieves a whopping 53 miles per gallon in the city and 50 miles per gallon on the highway. It has a 13.0-gallon tank. The Camry can travel for up to 663 miles on a full tank of gas. In comparison, the Honda Accord, a popular midsize car (that isn't a hybrid), has a driving range of 488 miles on a full tank of gas.

Toyota's midsize hybrid sedan starts at $28,700, which is affordable pricing for its segment. It produces 225 horsepower. All-wheel drive models produce 232 horsepower, but are slightly less efficient.

The 2025 Toyota Camry comes in four different trims: the LE, SE, XLE, and XSE final configuration. Toyota's Camry LE base model comes with plenty of standard features, but drivers can upgrade to upper trims for added features.

The Camry rivals popular midsize sedans like the Honda Accord and Hyundai Sonata. It has superior efficiency thanks to its standard hybrid powertrain. The Camry is also known for its resale value. Toyota's redesigned midsize hybrid sedan is easily one of the best affordable options in its segment for 2025.

Driving range may not seem like an important spec at first glance, but it could save drivers big bucks at the pump. The more driving range a hybrid vehicle has, the fewer times a driver will have to refuel their vehicle. Efficiency is important because fuel-efficient vehicles travel further distances on the same amount of gas than less efficient vehicles.

In an age of rising gas prices and significant inflation, driving range is arguably more important than ever before. Luckily for American drivers, there are plenty of hybrid models on the market that can maximize fuel efficiency and extend range to record highs.
