Toyota Prius IV (2016 – 2023)
If you say economical, you say prius. The First One was Already There in 1997 and was then a true curiosity. Toyota Continued to Improve the Concept Continuously, A Typical Japanese Approach. Generation Two Came in 2003, its successor in 2009 and in 2016 it is time for number four, which was immediately added to our fleet as a long-term tester. It surpassed its three predecessors in all respect, also in extremism. Everything for the Lowest Possible consumption. But what is much more important: this is the first prius that is also a bit fun to drive, a part on which the previous three were far from excelling. And then we express ourelves mildly. No, this prius is the first toyota on the tnga platform. That abbreviation stands for Toyota New Global Architecture. What a World of Difference with its predecessors! And of course, it has Become More Economical Again. With a Practical Average or 4.5 L/100 km (1 in 22.2), The Streamlined Toyota shows itself as a True Economy Champion. The figures on the German website Spritmonitor Prove that it can be better, where the first twenty on the list are below 4.0/100 km (1 in 25). A prius IV can certainly be found in this price range, although you then have an examples with a mildey between 150,000 and 210,000. But that is really no problem for a hybrid toyota, because you have also come to the right place in Terms of Reliability. Also good to know: Toyota Gives a Ten-Year Warranty, with a maximum or 200,000 km.
Volkswagen Golf VII 1.0 TSI (2015 – 2020)
The most popular used car in the Netherlands should not be missing here and it does not have to, given its economical character. A great all-rounder with a beautiful interior and design that lasts a long time. All Those Qualities Make the Volkswagen Golf Popular, which translates into Solid Prices. You could go for a plug-in hybrid, but it is technically more complex than the gasoline, more than four hundred hundred and pecespeciate lucrative if you can charge at home. However, we focus our sights on the golf 1.0 tsi. This 1.0-liter Three-Cylinder Replaced the Four-Cylinder 1.2 TSI in 2015. As BlueMotion with 115 HP the most economical of the bunch. Later there were Versions with 85 HP and with 110 HP. In practice, a pleasant, quiet and vibration-free engine with a pleasant amount of torque. The 1.0 TSI is also a supplied in Combination with the 7-speed DSG (not in combination with 85 HP). In practice, An Average of Around 1 in 17 is Achievable, but we also see many drivers who score 1 in 20. The Latter value is Certainly Achievable at a Constant speed of 100 km/h. And if you choose the variant, you have 605 liters of loading space and you have the perfect family as far as we are concerned. At the End of 2016, VW Unveiled the Facelifted Golf, Three Years later Generation 8 was presented.
Toyota Corolla Hybrid (2019 – Present)
For a long time, the hybrid technology remained reserved for the prius, Until Toyota Came Up With the Brilliant Idea of Putting This Ingenious Powertrain Into Other Models As Well. Such as in the Auris and then the Corolla, The World’s Most Produced Car. More Than 54 Million Corolla Buyers Have Already preceded you! And Maybe you think of a toyota corolla as boring and emotionless, the opposite Has Been True Since 2019. then the tide turned and toyota presented a new generation on the tnga platform. ‘No More Boring Cars’ is the credo from that moment on and the brand Succeeds Excellently in this. This sauddenly creates a corolla that steers well, sits well and looks good. It is available as a sedan, hatchback and as touring sports (Wagon station). With the well-known hybrid technology, also in combination with a 2.0-liter engine with a system power or 180 HP. This makes economical driving fun too. What child or consumption are we talking about then? An Average of 5.2 L/100 km (1 in 19.2), but on the website Spritmonitor Wee See More than Ninety Hybrid Corollas That Remain Below 5.0 L/100 km. If you want a corolla of this batch in this price range, it will be one with a mildey of at least 150,000 km. Do not be afraid, it is a toyota and you have a ten-year warranty (max. 200,000 km). In 2022 there is A Facelift, the 1.8 Hybrid Will then 140 HP.
Dacia Sandero Bi -Fuel (2021 – Present)
The Ugly Duckling that Became a Beautiful Swan, That’s How You Could DESCRABE The Evolution of the Dacia Sandero. Okay, that first generation from 2008 was Already a Bit Better to Digest than the Logan (A Sedan) with which the Romanian Brand with French Mother Mother Made Its Return in 2005. In 2021, The Current Sandero Came On The Market and It Does Not Look A Budget Like A Like A Like Look. But its biggest asset is still the price, because for the money of a picanto or aygo you step into a b-segmenter. And the bi-fuel, which is a version on lpg, also remains in the price list. It is cheaper than a sandero on petrol and also has 10 hp extra. It is not surprising that this novalian hatchback Became the best-selling car in Europe in 2024. What Surprises Us Is That Only Half of the Dutch Buyers Opt For The Bi-Fuel, While A Simple Calculation Teaches Us That The TipTers. A Liter or AutoGas is USUALLY A Euro Cheaper Than A Liter or Petrol, which Feels Quite Nice When Refueling. With a liter price or € 0.80 (AS or August 2025), Driving One Hundred Kilometers Costs You Six Euros (Consumption 7.5 L/100 km). The same distance on petrol make you € 11.70 LIGHTER, AT A Liter Price or € 1.80. (6.5 l/100 km). If you drive 10,000 km per year, that saves € 570, while you pay approxroximately € 336 extra in Road Tax. Not a huge difference, but it only Becomes More Lucrative for Those Who Drive More Kilometers. The Sandero is also available as a ruffled stepway, with a bit or an suv look.
Lexus CT200H (2011 – 2021)
As a luxury sub-fire of Toyota, lexus benefits from the hybrid technology that the Japanese have improved over the years. The Powertrain of the Prius and the Auris Found Its Way to the Compact Lexus CT200H, which Debuted in 2010. Importter Louwman Could Not Have Wished For A Better Moment, As The Compact Lexus Qualified for 14% Addition and Was Exempt from mrb. Lexus Saw Its Sales Explode in The Netherlands, with 2012 As the top year: 3,911 units, or which the CT200H accounted for 3,538 units. Since the beginning of 2021, The CT is no longer in our price list, but as a used car it will be there for a while. A fine, luxurious lexus with the petrol consumption of an aygo, that sounds too good to be true. The CT proves that it is Possible, with the Added Advantage that the Technology is as good as flawless and you do not have extremely high maintenance costs. The Ten-Year Warranty (max. 200,000 km) is also REASSURING. What child or consumption are we talking about then? On our own consumption monitor we see an Average or 5.3 l/100 km, which Corresponds Almost Exactly to the 5.4 l/100 km on Spritmonitor, where we incidentally see 77 Participants who Remain Below 5.0 L/100 km. Maybe the Lexus CT200H is not the most spacious in its segment, The Beautiful Interior Knows How to compensate for that. And you can just say that you drive a lexus.
