Should I buy a petrol or petrol hybrid automatic Toyota RAV4?
I use my Toyota RAV4, 2.0-litre diesel manual for volunteer ambulance driving and do approximately 12,000 miles per year, plus 3-4,000 private mileage. I am considering changing to an automatic but would appreciate your advice on whether to opt for the 2.2-litre diesel, 2.0-litre petrol or the petrol hybrid. Any suggestions?

The hybrid with 4WD (cheaper ones are 2WD) best, then the 2.0 i Valvematic Multidrive S 4WD. Forget the growly old diesel 4WD with its slurry old autobox.
Our Fuel Cost Calculator shows you which will be the best choice for you.
Compare the running costs of petrol, diesel and electric cars to make the right choice for you.
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.
