Like most company car drivers who are coming to the end of their current lease, combination of company and government incentives the likes of the Passat GTE and 330e are looking attractive on paper, including the yet to be released SKODA Superb iV.

I have a private drive and garage, so charging is not an issue, but my question is to those who already run these cars and do similar mileage to me (22-28k a year), are the figures really stacking up?

Currently drive a Jaguar XF diesel which is sitting at an average of 52mpg but with the tax incentives on these PHEVs it is hard to ignore.

Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks for the replies, really helpful.

I am yet still to decide on what option I take. I have had a good look at the 330e and to be fair the boot size does put me off, so I will wait until I have seen the Touring version.

The Skoda iV also looks a decent proposition although the interior looks quite bland IMO.

The Passat GTE also interesting me at the moment although the 330e makes more sense financially as I get higher fuel allowance with it being a 2.0.

There is a rumour that the Tesla 3 will be making an appearance on our company list shortly, but still not convinced as yet.
