We ranked hybrids from various body styles and classes based on how much fuel economy you get for the money.

While there are more full-size three-row SUVs than ever, few are hybrids, so we put two of them to the test: the Hyundai Palisade Hybrid and Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid.

With two three-row crossovers in Toyota’s lineup, it might be hard to decide between the 2026 Highlander or 2026 Grand Highlander, but the difference comes down to a few key areas.

Along with crash tests, safety features and accommodation of family members and their gear, we consider family-friendly features, car-seat fitment and overall excellence.
