AI Market Summary

Excellent low-emission credentials and strong tax incentive appeal — CO2-based motor tax favours PHEVs; genuine dual-fuel flexibility if you charge regularly.
Price up sharply year-on-year; stock tight (only 3 active listings). Expect to negotiate little — Irish demand for plug-in hybrids outpacing supply.
Battery range degrades noticeably after 2–3 years without consistent charging; dual-clutch transmission prone to judder at low speeds — test drive thoroughly in town.
Verify charging infrastructure access before buying; check onboard charger function and request full service history to confirm charging cycle discipline by previous owner.
NI import saves €5,069 before VRT, but VRT on plug-in hybrids applies on top — confirm final cost with broker; only worthwhile if savings exceed admin and transport costs.
