I’ve been looking at secondhand XC40 and quite fancy a hybrid as my mileage is low pa.
However the T5 hybrid is a 1.5 cc and £560 pa RFL !!

Do I just go with the 2.0 petrol version ??

Anyone got real world figures ? Servicing costs ?

I do so little mileage that the £500+ tax outweighs any saving of a hybrid for me really.

A 190bhp 2.0 will be more cost effective.

Just to finish this topic off.

Ended up buying a XC60 T5 Inscription.

I’m quite surprised to be honest. 35 on a run it easily achievable around town day to day driving 29 / 30 ish
