With car prices starting at $36,330, the Lexus HS 250h is the most expensive car on our list, but it's also the most luxurious.

The five-seat sedan is powered by a 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine teamed with an electric motor to produce 187 horsepower. It's about 30 percent more fuel efficient than the most efficient gas-only Lexus model and gets an estimated 35 city and 34 highway mpg.

The list of standard features for this car is long and includes dual-zone climate control, push-button start and stop, power moon roof, 10-way power driver's and front passenger's seats, 10 air bags, stability and traction control and a 10-speaker premium audio system with six-disc CD changer, Bluetooth technology, USB and MP3 capabilities. The car also has front-seat head restraints that move upward and forward on crash impact to limit whiplash.
