Judged strictly by their price in relation to their EPA fuel economy, the 2010 Toyota Prius (below) costs $4,030 more than the 2010 Honda Insight (above) and would require 26.2 years of driving to recover its "premium" over the price of the Insight. | September 18, 2009

You s/d also calculate the resale value to aid in the comparison. I don't know how hybrids have done in the resale market but diesel Volkswagen cars generally have resale values superior to that of gasoline versions of the same models.
