Preferably a sedan with a big trunk.

Don't really care where the car is made, although I've heard Japanese cars are generally more fuel-efficient.

That's a new car budget.

I was about to say, even the brand new 2017 Altima SV I was looking at was only 24k before negotiations.

Well I meant $30,000 as like absolute maximum...anything cheaper is definitely better.

I don't know much about cars.

There's plenty in that range, as long as you don't fall for the BMW meme.

Damn, 30 grand can get you a lot of car and to think it'd be wasted on something "fuel-efficient"...oh well, that's the enthusiast in me.

Define "fuel efficiency." Even a Mustang will get you 30 HWY MPGs.

I guess for some context, I'm currently driving a 2014 Mazda 3. Thus I would prefer a car that's considered an upgrade.

If you're already driving an econocar, then the next step is a hybrid.

Are Mazdas really that good? I wanted to drive a different brand.

I am quite interested in hybrids actually.

Any recommendations?

My recommendation is to keep your car.

The ROI on blowing upwards of 30 grand to gain maybe 10 MPGs in nonexistent. The battle of value per dollar for hybrids is usually a losing one.
