Hybrids combine the convenience of fossil fuel with the appeal of zero-emissions running. Which do we recommend?
The best hybrid cars deftly combine green emission ratings with low running costs, as well as the ability to fill up in mere moments from a pump.
Appealing to private buyers and company car owners alike, the commercial success of hybrids has been quite a thing to witness over the past couple of decades.
Hybrids are popular for several reasons. They can save you money at the petrol pump, and even significantly drive down how much benefit-in-kind (BIK) company car tax you pay.
