A short write-up on each car, one paragraph apiece. We describe them on their own terms rather than picking a winner.
Profile · PHEV (SG2, 2023+)
Plug-in hybrid crossover. Electric WLTP range 65 km; the WLTP figure of 1.0 l/100km applies only with a full battery and short trips. With an empty battery the car drives like a regular hybrid; then count on 5-6 l/100km (owner figure, not measured by us). Braked towing weight 1,300 kg.
Profile · 2.5 PHEV (XA50, facelift)
Plug-in with around 75 km WLTP electric range and 306 hp system power, four-wheel drive via a second e-motor on the rear axle. Strong point is the towing weight of 1,500 kg braked, unusually high for a PHEV; weak point is the high starting price and the fuel use once the battery is empty. Indicative starting price.
