What small plug-in hybrid would you recommend?
Can you advise as to which in you opinion is the best small PHEV hybrid? I'm not interested in a 'charge on the go' hybrid as a lot of my journeys are short and would not allow sufficient time to charge. I currently drive a BMW 225XE hybrid which is a great car but getting a bit long in the tooth now .

There are a limited number of small PHEVs on the market, but we would suggest looking at the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer and X1, Kia Niro and Peugeot 308, all of which are available as a plug-in hybrid.

Does a plug-in hybrid have any self-charging capability?
My Kia Niro Hybrid returns around 60mpg. Most of my journeys exceed the battery range of a PHEV version. Does a PHEV operate in the same way as my standard hybrid once the electric only range is passed...
Are plug in hybrids worth having? We live in a village and frequently do 20 to 30 miles to access facilities, so would need regular charging unless we just revert to the petrol engine.
