Hybrid vs full EV

Hi guys, sorry bit of a long question but here goes:

I’m In the market for a new car. My budget is max £25,000 and I’m looking at getting a second hand car.

My round trip to work is 60 miles which I do 5 times a week and I’ll have a 550 mile round trip once a month to visit family.

I have the ability to charge at home so an EV would save me a lot of money in fuel costs

I’ve mainly been looking at getting a polestar 2 82kWh (409 mile range) or a petrol plug in hybrid with a battery range of 70ish miles.

Main pros I can see for an EV is the lower cost of charging while the main pro I see for a plug in hybrid is the ability to not have to stop for too long/ worry about range on my longer trips.

TLDR: long range EV (300+ real world miles) or plug in hybrid with 70mile+ battery range
