Newbie here. I'm considering purchasing a 2017 C-Max Hybrid. My dilemma is should I get the straight hybrid or hybrid energi. I'm leaning more towards the Energi model because I live in a small town (10K pop) and nothing is far away. This means that the car rarely reaches normal operating temps especially in the winter. I think the Energi model would work best in this scenario. Thoughts? I've noticed a few new Energi models and lots of barely used 2017 models. The depreciation on these cars seems pretty dramatic!! Was 2017 the last model year? We currently drive a 2012 Kia Soul that has been an excellent vehicle but on long drives it's quite tiring. I believe the C-Max would serve us better in that mode.
