hybrid

Regarding the Chery Tiggo 9, some sources say that it would have two electric motors on the front axle and one on the rear axle, plus the internal combustion engine. Others only mention two electric motors plus one internal combustion engine. What is the truth?

Might you know if the new model 2026 Toyota RAV4 will be available as a hybrid? Or will it only be available in Ireland as a plug-in hybrid?

Thank you for your time.

Hi,

Just wondering what are the top 5/10 second-hand hybrids that you'd would recommend buying on the Irish market? I would love to buy a full electric car, but where I live, no can do. I have up to €35,000 to spend.

What hybrid car would you recommend for a budget of €30k and a minimum year of 2024? Preferably an SUV or a premium car.

Has the new Toyota Aygo X overcome the 12-volt battery problem of the Yaris which goes flat if you only do short journeys? This is a nightmare for low-mileage users.

Hi,

I'm stuck on a decision to buy full EV or hybrid. It comes down to fuel costs. I'm hoping to find the best hybrid to compare to EV if you can help. My price range is €23k new or nearly new.

Thanks

In relation to the MG HS PHEV, can you drive solely in electric mode at speeds say of 100km/h? Will it then switch to petrol mode when the battery has depleted?

Hi,

We have a 2020 BMW 330e for past 2.5 years and have had issues such as: 12-volt battery had to be replaced, shudder in front brakes, both wing mirror electrics failed... Looking at replacing now for around €40k mark. Not mad on SUVs but if needs must and not committed to full electric yet.

Up to what speed is the new Citroen C3 Aircross hybrid driven by electric motor only?

I bought a Nissan Juke 1.6 automatic petrol hybrid recently. I do a lot of town driving. In town I thought it would be driving mostly on the battery. This doesn't seem to be the case. Can you please advise as to how I can monitor this and any suggestions how I can improve its efficiency?

Thanks
