What small plug-in hybrid would you recommend?

Can you advise as to which in you opinion is the best small PHEV hybrid? I'm not interested in a 'charge on the go' hybrid as a lot of my journeys are short and would not allow sufficient time to charge. I currently drive a BMW 225XE hybrid which is a great car but getting a bit long in the tooth now .

There are a limited number of small PHEVs on the market, but we would suggest looking at the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer and X1, Kia Niro and Peugeot 308, all of which are available as a plug-in hybrid.

Are plug in hybrids worth having? We live in a village and frequently do 20 to 30 miles to access facilities, so would need regular charging unless we just revert to the petrol engine.

Are PHEVs expensive to run and maintain?

I haven't seen any discussion on maintenance costs for PHEV. Presumably, it must be quite expensive since you are maintaining an EV plus an ICE?
