Hybrid/EV car reviews

Not the EV we’d recommend, but if you like the way it looks and battery-power suits your lifestyle then by all means

The CX-60 is a likeable SUV with a great interior and easy-to-use tech, but the plug-in powertrain still needs work

The BYD Atto 3 drives decently, and depressing though it is to say, in this class 'decent' is as good as it gets

Not cheap, and not a conventional SUV, but a thoroughly capable family wagon

A high-tech showcase of everything BMW can do. Whether we want BMW to be doing this is another matter

Crossovers are family transit pods. And judged through that lens, the ID.4 is right on target

An extremely competent, well-built example of an EV SUV, but apart from those looks, there's no stand-out USP

The BMW i3 is the best small premium EV out there. Or it will be until production ends for good

It looks familiar, goes like a muscle car and it’s full of brilliant practical touches

It's quite hard to convince ourselves this HEV really exists. But vehicles this fun don't come along very often

Proof that electric planes really will happen. A beautifully serene way to travel

Renault mends the bits that needed mending and leaves the bits that didn’t. A big step forwards

If sheer refinement is what matters to you in a luxury car, this is the new champion. The EQS fuses Merc’s old school lux with new-age propulsion

It’s big, it’s spacious, it’s comfortable, but van-like looks and a limited 143-mile range may prove too much of a turn off for some

A coupe-ified SUV that isn't massively less practical than the car on which it's based. But you still want the SUV

The culmination of decades of work for Toyota, but it's for very specialist cases and hydrogen cheerleaders only

Bored of your tired ol' Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV? Welcome to the new Toyo-zuki successor

Seat's take on the VW Up & Skoda Citigo is a damn good EV. Though of the three, it's not the one we'd have

Almost everything we like about the Up, but unpretentiously electric. Could be the ideal first EV

It's one of the cheapest electric cars you can buy. And, happily, a good one too

A clever bit of engineering wrapped up in a tedious package
