A six letter word for.....

[phuber]

This will teach me not to do the crossword puzzle in pen. Today's LA Times, one across "Honda Insight eg;". Hint, the answer is NOT "hybrid" !

[gilbertguy]

Hmmmm, I had to look up the actual meaning of "eg":
"E.g." means "for example" and comes from the Latin expression exempli gratia.

So, I would have gone with Hybrid but I'm guessing I'd be wrong also? What else could it be? "Efficient" has to many letters!

Won't spoil it for those after by disclosing but if really stumped and need a peak:
"Pretty sure there's a big clue from this challenge."
