Compar'Car estimates (a depreciation model applied to the new price), not market valuations: an individual car may differ.

Which powertrain should you choose?

  • Mild hybrid 48 V: a small fuel saving, but driving very close to a conventional petrol or diesel car.
  • Diesel: mainly worthwhile for high annual mileage; check the traffic restrictions (low-emission zones) where you live.
  • Plug-in hybrid: electric for short daily trips, petrol for long journeys, as long as you charge it regularly to get the benefit.
