The 5 cheapest hybrids: all priced below €25,000

Discover the cheapest hybrid cars on the market. We analyse their price, consumption, interior space and many other features.

Hybrid cars are currently the most popular electrified option. Their high cost makes them, on some occasions, out of reach for most people. But it should not be forgotten that there are also some hybrid models for every budget. Here are the 5 cheapest hybrid cars you can buy in Spain:

1. Lexus CT 200h: from €24,900

• Price: from €24,900
• Official consumption: 3.6 litres / 100 km

The Lexus CT 200h is the most premium car on this list and the cheapest model in Lexus. It is a compact that measures 4.35 metres in length. In its most affordable version, it has 15-inch wheels and a 1.8-litre hybrid engine (petrol/electric) that produces 136 CV of power. The Lexus CT 200h is a really attractive hybrid when we consider its consumption (3.6 litres/100 km) and its current price (€24,900). The value for money of this car is very good.

2. Toyota C-HR: from €24,850

• Price: from €24,850 (currently with a €2,450 discount)
• Consumption: 3.8 litres/100 km

The Toyota C-HR is one of the best-selling ECO-label cars in our country. Its striking design and advanced technology make it one of the most sought-after hybrid crossovers on the market. The car incorporates the same 1.8-litre hybrid propulsion system as the Toyota Prius, an engine that in the C-HR produces 122 CV of power. The chassis of this crossover offers a lower centre of gravity than the Toyota Prius, which gives it slightly improved driving dynamics, although it should not be forgotten that this is a car that offers its best version in the city, where it shows great ride comfort. The Toyota C-HR is 3 cm longer (4.33 metres) than the Toyota Auris and almost 8 centimetres taller, a slight advantage in terms of interior space. The car is currently on promotion with a €2,450 discount and its starting price is €24,850.

3. Hyundai IONIQ HEV: from €20,975

• Price: €20,975 if you finance the purchase (€25,175 if you pay in cash)
• Consumption: 3.4 litres/100 km

The Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid is a compact saloon that offers the consumption of a city car: 3.4 litres/100 km. The car offers a great balance of performance and efficiency thanks to its 1.6-litre petrol engine which, with the assistance of an electric motor, is capable of producing 141 CV of power. This car comes as standard with a dual-clutch automatic gearbox (one of the most efficient and fastest on the market). It is available from €20,975 if you choose to finance the purchase with the brand. Otherwise, the car has a starting price of €25,175.

The Hyundai Ioniq is also available in a plug-in hybrid version (PHEV) and an electric (EV) version. Both variants cost around €30,000 (if you finance the purchase).

4. KIA Niro HEV — from €19,900

• Price: from €19,900 if you finance the purchase (€26,175 if you pay in cash)
• Consumption: 3.8 litres/100 km

The Kia Niro is one of the most recommendable hybrid SUVs on the market. It measures 4.35 metres in length and 1.54 metres in height, the largest on this list alongside the Lexus CT 200h. The Kia Niro shares its platform, engine and gearbox with the Hyundai Ioniq: its 1.6-litre hybrid powertrain produces 141 CV of power. Its consumption is slightly higher than that of an Ioniq HEV due to its greater weight: 3.8 litres/100 km. The Kia Niro stands out for its wide standard equipment (quite technological) and for its good interior space: the boot has a capacity of 401 litres (an Auris offers 360 litres, for example). The car is currently available with a €6,275 discount if you finance the purchase.

5. Toyota Auris Hybrid: from €19,350

• Price: €19,350 (currently on promotion). €23,340 without discount.
• Consumption: 3.6 litres/100 km

The Toyota Auris Hybrid and the Lexus CT 200h share the same 136 CV hybrid propulsion system. The Japanese compact also offers dimensions similar to those of its premium sibling: it measures 4.30 metres in length. In 2017 it was the best-selling hybrid car in Spain, and this year it is on course to repeat the feat. The car is currently available with a €4,000 discount that brings its starting price to €19,350 in the Business trim.

BONUS: Toyota Yaris Hybrid: from €15,950

• Price: from €15,950 (currently on promotion)
• Consumption: 3.3 litres/100 km

The Toyota Yaris Hybrid is the cheapest hybrid car you can currently buy in Spain. The Japanese city car has a length of 3.95 metres and stands out for its good manoeuvrability in the city, as well as for offering great advantages when parking in small spaces. Its 1.5-litre hybrid engine (petrol/electric) produces a combined power of 101 CV, and its consumption is unbeatable: 3.3 litres/100 km. For a vehicle with compact dimensions, its interior space is more than respectable: its boot has a capacity of 286 litres. The car is currently on promotion from €15,950, a €4,000 discount on the original price.
