My youngest son and his wife bought a Yaris Cross Hybrid 12 months ago and absolutely love it.What do you think of the Kona v’s the Corolla hybrid for that sort of trip? I’ve been watching the Qfleet auctions, wondering whether I should buy one of the many Corolla hybrids they’re selling, but have only seen Kona electrics come up in one auction so far. At the moment they are still selling for more than I want to pay, given that the price of new EV’s are coming down.
The Xantia can easily cost me $100 in petrol for the 600k round trip to Brisbane, where I currently get any repairs done, much more if I can’t find a cheap petrol station.
They get nearly 1200 kms out of a full tank (36L), and it only needs 91 octane petrol.
