Best diesel hybrid cars of 2024
Diesel hybrid cars are a rare breed - they always have been. In theory, they represent the best of both worlds, especially plug-in hybrids, which offer a good few miles of zero-emission motoring as well as cracking fuel economy with a discharged battery.
The complexity and extra cost of a diesel engine, though, plus the general market shift away from diesel cars and relatively incremental gains over a petrol hybrid car means these remain a little-explored niche. More common are mild hybrid diesels, which use just a tiny bit of electrification - basically a beefed-up engine stop/start system - to improve efficiency and reduce emissions.
Regardless of their rarity, many diesel hybrids are really rather good, so our expert reviews team has rounded up the best ones on sale - both mild and plug-in. As our detailed reviews cover the full gamut of engine options, these aren't necessarily in Wowscore order.
