We looked at EV but there’s even less charging points in Spain than there are in the U.K., especially down here in southeast Spain. We bought a Kia Niro hybrid. Lovely car… well, at least I loved it. Mrs W only drove it twice. Great mileage but not as good as I’d hoped.

We switched to a Toyota Yaris hybrid in early October. We’re hitting around 80mpg for our local runs - it runs purely on electric up to about 40mph. Mpg drops to low 60’s for motorway runs.
