A short write-up on each car, one paragraph apiece. We describe them on their own terms rather than picking a winner.
Profile · Hybrid 2.5 (XV70)
D-segment full-hybrid sedan with 218 hp system power. Strong points are a low real-world consumption and the Toyota hybrid reliability reputation; weak point the limited availability per EU market (Camry supply varies by country) and no braked towing weight (0 kg, not suitable for a trailer).
