You haven't been inside a loaded Cruze or Focus then...they're really, really nice. Nicer than BMWs or Mercedes from ten years ago

It depends on your idea of "luxury"

I'm simply pointing out that a hybrid isn't always the best solution for freeway commuting and there are several new cars that get fantastic freeway mileage

It's back to the idea of paying $37K for a little hatchback to "save" all kinds of fuel costs, then when you put a pencil to it, you only save a couple hundred bucks a year. Might as well drive what you want. You couldn't spend $37K on a 2013 Altima 2.5SL if you tried..... one with EVERY option (as much "luxury" as the Lexus) is under $31K.
