英菲尼迪M35h 

Infiniti M35h

   英菲尼迪（Infiniti）M35h的起价为57,945美元，它搭载了一台油电混合动力发动机，油耗为每加仑25英里。它的同门兄弟M37的售价为51,945美元。如果算上其它养车费用，混动版的五年拥有成本约为6.3万美元，而汽油版的五年拥有成本为60,250美元。如果只从油耗上看的话，混动版的油耗优势还是很明显的。不过混动版得开上八年之后才能开始为车主省钱。

雷克萨斯RX450h

   The Infiniti M35h sedan starts at $57,945 and comes with a gas-electric hybrid engine that's rated at 25 miles per gallon. Its sibling, the M37 sedan, costs $51,945. Taking into account other costs of ownership, the hybrid costs $63,000 to own for five years, compared with $60,250 for the gasoline-powered sedan. Purely in terms of gasoline saved the hybrid makes sense right away. As a financial matter, eight years of ownership must go by before the hybrid saves money for the owner.

Lexus RX450h

    雷克萨斯品牌凭借它的RX跨界车产品线打出了一个漂亮的本垒打。这个系列的豪华性和动力近年来有了不小的进步，因此也吸引了许多忠实客户。雷克萨斯最近推出了一款名为RX450h的混动车，以吸引那些对高科技和环保感兴趣的消费者。这款车的起价为50,430美元，油耗为每加仑26英里。相比之下，RX350汽油版的价格为44,430美元，油耗为每加仑21英里。RX450h的车主绝对可以相信它的环保性。但是，要等到它的经济性超过汽油版，则是8年以后的事了。

    Toyota's Lexus division hit a big home run with its RX line of crossovers, which have grown more luxurious and powerful over the years and have attracted a loyal customer base. Lexus added a hybrid, the RX450h, to its lineup for those interested in advanced technology and a strong interest in environmental concerns. The hybrid version starts at $50,430 and is rated at 26 miles per gallon. The RX350 gasoline version costs $44,430 and is rated at 21 miles per gallon. The hybrid owner can rightfully claim green credentials with the hybrid; and after eight years of ownership, the hybrid owner may accurately point out that it was a good deal financially, compared with the gasoline versio.
