Is there a petrol hybrid estate you would recommend?
I have a diesel Ford Focus. With all the controversy concerning diesels, is there a petrol hybrid estate you would recommend?

The Toyota Corolla Touring Sports with the hybrid powertrain is a brilliant alternative to diesel. Advertised fuel economy is in the region of 50-60mpg and it's very refined. Admittedly, it's not as sharp to drive as the Focus, but it's much better for comfort.
If you cover no more than 100 miles per day and have easy access to a charging point at home or work, then an EV is ideal for you.
