According to a new study by JATO, the economics surrounding the CR-V's hybrid premium have shifted dramatically over a span of five months.
In January, the hybrid premium required an extensive 159,000 miles to break even, but rising gas prices, now exceeding $4.50, have altered this calculation.
The ongoing conflict in Iran appears to be contributing to sustained high fuel costs, further influencing the viability of hybrid vehicles.
