I've had the 225 Hybrid GT for two years. Super car if you have, say, solar panels on the roof and charge from a socket — with a 10–15 km commute you drive on electricity for next to nothing. On the motorway at 140 km/h it uses about 6.0–6.3 l/100 km, superb comfort and quietness — and that stylish look!!!

Skoda Octavia Combi

The Skoda Octavia Combi is the sensible family wagon that somehow turns grocery runs and long trips into a pleasant, unshowy experience — spacious, practical and built like it prefers reliability over flash. With smart touches, clever storage and a cabin that feels grown-up rather than frugal, it’s an easy recommendation for buyers who want maximum utility without sacrificing comfort or style.
