Mileage Challenge 5.5: Final Thoughts

KM: “I really want to pick the Jetta TDI here: For driving fun, it stands head and shoulders above the rest. But the prospect of driving another six hours puts almost all the weight on issues like road noise, seating comfort and ride quality. The Prius measures up well, but so does the Milan Hybrid — and it’s more engaging to drive. Guess Mercury runs the table.”
