To identify leaders for each of the 2024 Best Hybrid and Electric Cars award categories, U.S. News evaluated 96 luxury and affordable hybrid, plug-in hybrid and electric cars, SUVs, and trucks. U.S. News considered gas mileage and range data from the EPA, pricing information, and the consensus opinion of the automotive press. The winners have the best combination of quality, efficiency, and value in their segment.

"Kia Sportage Plug-In Hybrid's recognition as U.S. News & World Report's 'Best Plug-In Hybrid SUV' reflects Kia's pursuit of excellence in the areas of innovation, technology, and efficiency," said Steven Center, COO & EVP, Kia America.
