Overview
Cars like the 2016 Lexus CT 200h Hatchback might not be able to give you the direct benefits one might expect from its hybrid powertrain. However, its usefulness must not be overlooked. The CT 200h Hatchback uses its 1.8L inline-4 engine and a 1.31 kWh battery to produce 134 horsepower and 142 lb-ft of torque. This gives the CT 200h Hatchback a 0-60 of 9.8 seconds. The hybrid engine here is to support the gasoline engine to boost performance and offer slightly better fuel economy than what a single gasoline engine would be capable of. That said, the 2016 CT 200h achieves a combined fuel economy of 42 MPG. As part of the compact hatchback, the CT 200h Hatchback competes with the Toyota Prius Hybrid Hatchback. Buyers can also consider indirect rivals such as Ford C-Max Hybrid Hatchback and the Audi A3 e-Tron Sportback. It offers 2 trims, starting off at an MSRP of $31,250.
