Who they are

A short write-up on each car, one paragraph apiece. We describe them on their own terms rather than picking a winner.

Profile · Hybrid 1.8 (E210, facelift)

Toyota Corolla

Full-hybrid without a plug. Strong point is a low real-world fuel use in urban traffic; weak point the modest towing weight (750 kg braked) and the cvt noise under hard acceleration. Indicative starting price.

Profile · 2.5 PHEV (XA50, facelift)

Toyota RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid

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.
