Who they are

A short write-up on each car, one paragraph apiece. We describe them on their own terms rather than picking a winner.

Profile · 1.5 TSI (NX, facelift 2024)

Skoda Octavia

Spacious family liftback on the MQB platform. Strong points are the boot (600 l) and the braked towing weight (1,600 kg). The 1.5 TSI with mild-hybrid returns WLTP 5.6 l/100km; owners report 6-7 l/100km in practice (public forums, not measured by us).

Profile · IV (XW50)

Toyota Prius

Fourth-generation Prius (XW50), 1.8 full hybrid with around 122 hp system power. No plug; the hybrid charges itself. WLTP fuel use around 4.2 l/100km. Historical reference, no longer available as a new car since the fifth generation.
