Family-friendly Clean Pass hybrid car?
My car lease expires next month and I’d like to start looking for a hybrid that qualifies for the Clean Pass program (for HOV lane purposes).
Anyone recommend a great hybrid car that qualifies AND is spacious enough for my 8 and 10 year old boys AND fit weekly grocery shopping in the trunk?
Thanks!
PS - This is the current clean pass list:

Not a Hybrid, but full Electric. It is so roomy and because the technology can't be beat, a Chevy Bolt EV. DH has it, and we love it. It's huge! We fit 3 across the back seat. It costs a little under $2.00 a day to charge
We had a Chevy Volt before the bolt

We have a Chevy Volt. It's great as a secondary car. I have a 4 and 2 year old in the back seat in car seats. The trunk is a hatchback and was one of the few clean pass cars that could fit a side by side double stroller.
I was going to consider a Kia Niro for my next car but I don't have a real need for the clean pass anymore.

My BF has a Hybrid Camry. Its a few yrs old and not a clean pass. But its a great car and roomy. He's consdiered getring a new one but is putting it off for now.
He was mechanic at Toyota for years. Will only go with Toyotas now so he may be biased
ETS: And I feel like 90% of UBER cars in NYC are Toyota Hybrids. I think that says a lot about the car.

Re: Family-friendly Clean Pass hybrid car?
my brother is a mechnaic...he swears by toyota prius models -- not sure if they're clean pass (didn't check the link) but I have the original 2002 model and aside from tires, brakes, and oil changes, it hasn't needed anything done to it. I'm now just over 200,000 miles and he says I have some years to go on it. He has had prius' since 2005 and will only buy toyota - also have a highlander hybrid
