Biggest discounts on our best hybrids
BMW 3 Series 330e
Save up to £1736
Verdict: The 3 Series leads the charge in the premium executive car class. Its primary appeal is in the way it drives, but its engines, standard equipment list and infotainment system are first rate as well. The firm ride on M Sport models is just about the only thing we can grumble about in this near-flawless executive car. Read more: BMW 3 Series review
BMW X5 xDrive45e
Save up to £5350
Verdict: The X5 is a smooth and classy luxury SUV but it's not as practical as its best rivals and relatively expensive to buy. Opt for the xDrive45e, though, and you are buying one of the most impressive plug-in hybrids around, combining all the best points of the standard X5 with a substantial real-world electric range.

Ford Kuga PHEV
Save up to £2292
Verdict: Measured against other plug-in-hybrid large SUVs the Kuga is a very competitive proposition. The relatively long electric driving range is a bonus, while the car is decently large, practical and good to drive, albeit a shade behind the very best in the class. Read more: Ford Kuga review
Honda CR-V Hybrid
Save up to £2890
Verdict: The CR-V hybrid is huge inside and its practicality boosted by neat tricks such as rear seats that fold up.

Skoda Superb iV

Toyota RAV4
Save up to £1817
Verdict: Yes, the RAV4 is a little pricier to buy than some other large SUVs, but you should make that back down the line through its strong resale values.

Toyota Yaris Hybrid
Save up to £231

Other standout features include Toyota's fabled reliability. Read more: Toyota Yaris review
Volkswagen Passat GTE
Save up to £5732
Verdict: The Passat GTE is spacious and refined, with an impressive hybrid system that makes the most of the electric battery.
