Hybrids

The 2023 Honda Accord has been heavily updated, and boasts new exterior styling as well as a revamped interior that comes with more tech and a sportier design than before.

While the core shape of the 2024 Kona will carry over from its current iteration, the images that Hyundai released point to a canvas that will be heavily influenced by the Ioniq 5 EV.

Toyota is going after a new, younger buyer with its quicker, more stylish, sexier 2023 Prius, but some curiously missing features, a cramped interior and cheap materials might make that challenging.

Lexus chose to do light updates for the model-year 2023 LS 500 and LS 500h sedans but focused on where it counts, with new technology leading the charge.

With the 2023 Crown, Toyota has tried to combine some of the qualities of both a sedan and an SUV in one vehicle that’s harder to categorize.

Both the hybrid and gas-only 2023 Accord see updated styling, interior improvements and new safety features; however, only hybrid shoppers will find notable engine and tech upgrades.

The 2023 Corolla sedan, hybrid and hatchback all get refreshed exterior styling, updated interior tech and improved safety features, while the Corolla hybrid also adds available all-wheel drive.

The Lexus LC 500 and LC 500h soldier on into the 2023 model year with minimal updates and a modest price increase of $300 for each.

With no changes other than a $255-$405 price bump for 2023 depending on the variant, shoppers can save by going with a 2022 model while it is still available.

The Kia Sorento PHEV returns for the 2023 model year, but Kia has “streamlined” the plug-in hybrid lineup to a single trim.
