A used BMW ActiveHybrid 3 costs between £13,490 for the cheapest variant and £14,995 for the most expensive model.

The used car price of an BMW ActiveHybrid 3 is determined by a number of factors, the most important of which are what year the car is from, engine size and performance, fuel efficiency, mileage together with the trim level of the car.

For instance, a car that is newer and has fewer miles on the clock will typically command a higher price. In the same vein, models at the higher end, replete with luxurious features or more robust engines, generally come with a more substantial price tag than a car from an older model year, with higher mileage and no optional extras.

What equipment packages does the BMW ActiveHybrid 3 offer?

While calculating the cost of a used BMW ActiveHybrid 3, it's key to analyze vehicles having the same engines and equipment. If you don't, you might draw an inaccurate conclusion about which car to buy.

What are the fuel options for the BMW ActiveHybrid 3?

The BMW ActiveHybrid 3 exclusively uses plug-in hybrid as its fuel. We have two cars in the range right now at an average price of £14,242.

We urge you to take your driving habits into account before settling on a specific fuel type. How far do you usually drive in a standard week? Are your trips more often short ones, or do you tend to travel over long distances?

If you primarily drive short distances, electric, plug-in hybrid or petrol is typically a good fit. For longer commutes, a newer electric car is a good alternative - especially with access to charging. For longer daily commutes, a modern electric car is often suitable - especially if you can charge at home or at work. Despite the rise of electric cars, diesel can still be useful for long journeys and lack of charging options. Remember that in some places, high-emission diesel engines are not allowed in urban areas.

Hybrid cars are getting more and more popular

The UK's fondness for hybrid vehicles is attributed to their effective fuel consumption, reduced carbon output relative to conventional cars, and the expanding network of charging points, aligning with the country's environmental goals and tax incentives for greener transportation. The adoption of hybrid vehicles like the BMW ActiveHybrid 3 is essential in the progression towards more green and sustainable transport solutions.

The benefits of buying a used hybrid car

Numerous advantages exist for purchasing a used hybrid car. Benefits such as:

1. Cost savings on purchase: The pricing of used hybrid cars is generally more reasonable than that of new ones. The initial cost being more affordable can widen the accessibility of hybrids to more buyers.

2. Environmental benefits: In terms of emissions, hybrid cars outperform regular petrol and diesel models. Deciding on a used hybrid car reduces environmental consequences in contrast to buying a brand-new car, as the manufacturing process, particularly for the battery, has a carbon footprint.

3. Fuel efficiency: Hybrids are famed for their efficient fuel usage, integrating a petrol engine and an electric motor. The efficiency can result in marked savings in terms of fuel expenses over a prolonged period.

4. Technological features: Even older hybrid models often come with advanced features, equipped for a futuristic driving experience.

5. Government incentives: In the UK, lower road taxation is typically applied to hybrid vehicles, attributed to their lesser CO2 emissions. In certain zones, like central London, hybrid vehicles may be applicable for lesser or no congestion charges, depending on their levels of emissions.
