AS far as the Civic Hybrid goes, my 05 got worse mileage than the
equivalent "regular" civic on the highway. That plus its miserable
tight interior and slow pickup convinced me to trade it in for a
Malibu(SS Maxx). With a light foot, I can get well over 24 mpg on the
highway with the advantage of having the power to get out tight
situations when the need arises.

I'd say that is a huge factor. Remember when having an alligator on your
shirt was mandatory? That crowd had graduated to cars.

I never wore one of those alligator shirts. I don't know that I would be
getting 55 MPG in the other hybrids.
