2012 Buick LaCrosse eAssist vs. 2013 Lexus GS450h: How much hybrid do you really need? | Parts and People

(Before It's News)

While there are plenty of hybrid SUVs and family cars on the market, in the world of luxury hybrid sedans, options are limited.  But how luxurious does a hybrid really need to be?  To find out, we compared the $ 36,175 2012 Buick LaCrosse eAssist against the $ 69,754 2013 Lexus GS450h.  One is a near-luxury mild hybrid, and the other a full-luxury parallel hybrid.  In our testing, did financial economy or fuel economy reign supreme?
