Downsizing from Citroen Picasso, recommendations needed

We acted on your advice when we bought our Citroen Picasso and have been very happy with it, but 175000 miles later it needs replacing.

We're looking for almost new, where comfort, space, reliability and fuel consumption are our key needs, but are also interested in the benefits of hybrid vehicles.
