Pricing

With minimal changes for 2022 other than a $100-$700 price increase, a 2021 Accord may be a better buy.

Hyundai’s all-electric, hatchbackish SUV, the Ioniq 5, will hit dealers by year-end with a starting price of $44,875 for the base trim, SE, with a single electric motor and RWD.

The Ariya’s base price is close to but higher than other mainstream EV SUVs like the Ford Mustang Mach-E (43,995) and Volkswagen ID.4 ($41,190), though with more standard estimated range.

Though the new Tundra starts at $37,645 (all prices include destination), up nearly $2,000 from the 2021 model, a 5 mpg overall gain from the new base engine is equally significant.

The base 4x2 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo will start at $39,185 for the 2022 model year, $2,130 more than a comparable 2021 model.

The 2022 Honda Civic Si is expected to arrive before the end of 2021 and starts at $28,315, including a $1,015 destination fee.

Refreshed for 2022, the Jetta sees an updated engine and more standard safety technology, but it comes at a price.

For 2022, there are very few changes to the Toyota Highlander. The most visible is a new Bronze Edition trim level available for the Highlander’s hybrid version.
