^{1. BMW 330e}

^....The thing that makes the 330e so special is that, aside from a shallower boot, it's much like any other 3 Series, meaning great fun to drive. There's simply nothing in the way it handles to suggest you're carrying around enough batteries for 36 miles of zero-emission motoring. What's more, every material feels suitably expensive, the infotainment system is a cinch to use and there’s a decent amount of space in the back. The 330e is a truly great car.

• ^{Brilliant fun to drive}
• ^{Class-leading infotainment system}
• ^{Great range of engines}

5. Hyundai Ioniq

...The 2019 Hyundai Ioniq comes in three options, traditional hybrid (electric and petrol motor combined), a plug-in hybrid (longer electric driving range) and there’s even a 100% electric version too, it’s trying to do a lot in one model, but is it as good as the competition?

The standard model comes with pretty much every feature you could want including a reversing camera, DAB radio, Apple CarPlay and even wireless charging for your phone.

Advantages:

• Faster than a Toyota Prius
• Good looking, regular styled family hatchback
• Aerodynamic design maximises economy

6. Mini Cooper Plug-In Hybrid

...Countryman is actually the largest MINI you can buy, but it’s still compact for an SUV. The hybrid model will do 26 miles on electricity alone and it’s a plugin so you can charge on the go.

But is it as fun as a normal MINI? Well, simply – yes it is. It comes with all the compact style and retro chic you’d expect, and it looks great.

Where this car falls down is with the way it displays information, unlike most hybrids the MINI shows very little about what the car’s hybrid engine is doing.

Useful stuff like EV range remaining or power being used is only accessible via a menu which can be a bit fiddly to operate on the move.

The Countryman drives well, like most MINIs, it’s got a real sporty feel and it’s a lot of fun to drive thanks to all that power. The interior is charming, with better, sturdier materials than many of its rivals.

Real world economy comes to around 56.6mpg, which isn’t great considering its rivals.

Overall, you’ll enjoy spending time with your MINI, it’s also surprisingly spacious in the back – so the kids will be fine. The boot is deep and roomy too. Bonus.

Advantages:

• Great handling with a sporty feel
• Classic, high quality MINI design and feel

7. Kia Niro

...The Kia Niro is a petrol / electric hybrid hatchback to rival the Toyota Prius and the Hyundai Ionic. On first impression it’s much more conventional in its looks when compared with its other hybrid counterparts.

As standard it gets a 4 star EuroNCAP safety rating but the additional ‘driver assistance pack’ adds autonomous braking and adaptive cruise control for just £350.

The back seats are roomy and will easily fit tall people (unlike some smaller hybrid models suchas the Prius which can feel cramped for lengthier humans).

In terms of storage, the boot is comparatively big too, with additional storage in the lower section. It’s basically perfect for a small family.

Advantages:

• Drives like a regular small SUV, you can’t notice it’s a hybrid
• Good design, regular-styling
• Spacious interior with lots of features
• Comes with an industry leading 7 year warranty

9. Ford Fusion Hybrid
