Thinking of swapping my X5 for a hybrid...

Hi, I've got an X5 Sport (reg 08DXXXXX), mileage c 90km, one owner (x-demo I bought in 2008 when I lived in London and imported it to Ireland when I moved home in late 2010). I'm interested in selling (trade-in or cash) and getting a smaller, possibly hybrid car (I don't drive that much now and the car is mainly used in the city/Dublin bringing kids to school, activities, etc).

Our answer:

Hello Shane,

The X5 is probably worth €19,000 to €20,000, although as a trade-in it’ll be more like €16,500-€17,500. If you want a smaller, hybrid car, there are a huge amount available to you nowadays, but you could do a lot worse than the Hyundai Ioniq, which has not one but three different types of electrified drivetrain available to you: the regular Hybrid, the Plug-in Hybrid and then the full Electric.
