I'm due to change my car in january yay. I have tested several but not sure on petrol, diesel, hybrid or full electric.
Ideas and benefits please.
 
Hybrids are at their best when being driven in urban settings. They conserves fuel and also produce less CO2 emissions ( the legislation has just been changed, tax free for zero emissions). You’ll spend less money on the fuel too. The main disadvantages are higher maintenance costs….Also it takes a few hours for charging each day.
If you travel abroad very often, I’d say diesel is good also, as a second option, because not all the European countries are prepared yet for the electric cars. Personally I’d like a Mazda CX-5 SUV or a BMV 3 Series.
 
I don't know about where you live, but we're not equipped for fully electric vehicles in my area, so I have no opinion on those.

Hybrid is probably the best choice if you're buying a vehicle based solely on its mileage numbers. Is that the reason you're changing cars? If not, maybe direct your focus elsewhere. I think someone from the UK is probably better qualified to respond. My 2 cents feels a little light.
 
Ive got a lucky budget and looking at the porsche cayenne hybrid diesal electric, bonus is company car tax is almost half what I'm paying at the moment, had my heart set on a jaguar f pace till i tested the cayenne now confused.
Thought about the teslas but range suffers. Want something different and not the regular rep mobile.

If you intend on electric then I personally don't see the point in full electric. Hybrid is the way to go.

And of the two of them cars, based purely on looks, I'd be all over that Jag. Not a fan of the Porsche.

I wouldn't kick either out of bed mind.

Jag man, Jag but being an American probably shapes my opinion. I saw Jag and didn't even blink lol
 
I love the jag nut driving the cayenne think it has the edge 3litre straight 6 diesel with electric only has 27 mile range but recharges as you drive so ideal for stop start driving the jag akso has a 3 litre twin turbo. Looks I love the jag grill but cayenne has the driving edge another ive contemplated is the 630d bmw

Porsche just need to make front more aggressive but with a tax saving told over £520 A month compared to jag its tempting.
 
I work in the trade and just to throw one in there as long as your not a badge snob.
Volvo is releasing a car similar to the f pace which gets better reviews although I have driven the f pace and it's a quality car inside and out.
