    I'm still of the view that a PHEV can work well. A BEV can work equally as well & there's more choice becoming available every day.
    The other option, which no doubt some of the more radical environmentalists would prefer, would be 100% use of public transport or even to suggest you move to a city & rent an apartment & bicycle :pac:.

    The price for the diesel sportline superb is about 45 grand on the website..not sure what model you are pricing at

    I'd want the estate and that's coming in 53 grand. Your well into Enyaq money then. I don't see how a phev competes

    Have a look on done deal..I counted about 10 superb ,diesel and phev on it..some of the phevs are cheaper than the 2 litre diesels..I've always had a diesel, last car was the scout..so when I saw the 2 at identical priced cars sitting in the forecourt..the extras in the phev swung It for me..

    If it's no more expensive.....

    Some depreciation if it's fallen 6k below the price of it's cheaper ice equivalent,?!?

    Yes,I think they were overpriced in the 1st place..250 only Brought into the country last year,I'd say they had to drop the price to sell them..

    The price for the Superb PHEV is pre-grant, take €5k off the listed price.

    Pretty sure it's going down to €2500 from the start of July, some dealers are advertising that you should "head on down now" so they can get you the full €5k.
