Mercedes EQS 2022 Review – We Put Merc's Posh EV Through The Toughest Limo Test
The Mercedes EQS 2022 is reviewed as a luxurious electric saloon, aiming to be the ultimate chauffeur-driven experience. While praised for its spaciou... mores interior, advanced technology (including the optional £8,000 hyper screen), and quiet cabin, the review highlights several drawbacks. Notably, the absence of a heated steering wheel on a £122,000 vehicle is deemed astonishingly poor value. Build quality issues with loose switches and a slightly disappointing ride on broken surfaces are also mentioned. The reviewer found the driving experience surprisingly agile and nimble, likening it to a large Mini, which deviates from the expected ultra-smooth limo feel. Despite these criticisms, the rear passenger experience was rated highly (9/10) for comfort and amenities, while the front driving experience received a 7.5/10, suggesting it's fun but not the ultimate relaxed cruiser anticipated. less

The Electrifying.com review pits the Kia EV6 against the Volkswagen ID.4, evaluating them as family electric cars. While the ID.4 is praised for its p... moreracticality, spaciousness, and comfortable, sensible driving experience, it's ultimately deemed competent but uninspiring, with the reviewer noting that a Skoda Enyaq offers similar benefits for less money. The Kia EV6, despite its more polarizing design and slightly less practical interior, is highlighted for its superior performance, engaging driving dynamics, faster charging capabilities, and better efficiency.

In this in-depth comparison, the Kia EV6 GT Line S and the Tesla Model 3 Long Range go head-to-head. While the EV6 garners significant interest with i... morets striking design and practical interior features like ample storage and heated seats, it falls short in driving dynamics and perceived build quality in some areas.

In this comprehensive EV crossover shootout, the Tesla Model Y, Kia EV6, and Hyundai Ioniq 5 are put to the test. The Tesla Model Y, despite its delay... moreed UK arrival, emerges as the victor, primarily due to its superior efficiency, practicality, and range, even with a smaller battery. Its driving dynamics are praised as a more practical, yet still engaging, version of the Model 3, and the established Supercharger network remains a significant advantage. However, the Model Y's interior is noted for its extreme minimalism, which may divide opinion. The Kia EV6 is highlighted for its engaging driving experience, offering a sporty feel that rivals the Tesla, and a well-balanced interior that strikes a middle ground between the other two. The Hyundai Ioniq 5, while praised for its unique retro-futuristic styling and exceptionally spacious and comfortable interior, is deemed more about serenity than outright performance, making it a more relaxed, albeit less dynamically involving, choice. Ultimately, the Model Y's combination of efficiency, practicality, and performance, coupled with the charging infrastructure, makes it the most well-rounded option, though the decision comes down to prioritizing practicality and efficiency over unique styling and driving engagement. less

This comparative test pits the MG5 Long Range, Volkswagen ID.3 Pro, and Hyundai Kona Electric against each other to determine real-world efficiency an... mored value for money. While the MG5 offers the lowest purchase price per mile of range on paper (WLTP), the real-world test reveals a different story.

Porsche Everrati 911 Review – Sacrilege or Supercar Saviour?
This review explores the Everrati 911, a 964-generation Porsche 911 converted to electric power. The hosts initially express skepticism, viewing the c... moreonversion as potential sacrilege. However, after driving the car, their opinions shift significantly. Key highlights include the car's surprising ability to retain the feel of a classic 911, its impressive 500bhp performance, and the clever engineering that keeps its weight comparable to the original. The reversible nature of the conversion, allowing the original engine to be kept and reinstalled, is a major plus. While acknowledging it's not a true 964, the reviewers find it to be a compelling, characterful, and impressive electric vehicle in its own right. The main drawback is the high base price of £250,000, positioning it as a niche, high-end product. The claimed range is 150 miles. less
New Hyundai Kona Electric vs Kia e-Niro – Two Sisters, Only One Winner
The Hyundai Kona Electric and Kia e-Niro, sister cars sharing identical underpinnings, are revisited as popular choices in the EV market. Both feature... more a 64kWh battery delivering 201bhp and impressive real-world range, with the Kona slightly edging out the e-Niro on WLTP figures (300 vs 282 miles). Real-world testing confirms over 250 miles even in winter. Charging is identical, with a 7.7kW AC capability. The primary differentiator lies in practicality and styling. The e-Niro offers superior boot space (451L vs 361L) and rear passenger room, making it the more practical family choice. The Kona, while slightly shorter and perceived as marginally more engaging to drive, features a more divisive exterior design. Interior quality is good on both, though the Kona's cabin feels more modern. Key differences include the e-Niro's standard heat pump and longer warranty (5-year unlimited vs Hyundai's 7-year/100k miles). Ultimately, the choice hinges on prioritizing space and practicality (e-Niro) versus slightly sharper styling and driving dynamics (Kona). less

This video pits the standard Audi e-tron GT against the Porsche Taycan 4S, highlighting their shared underpinnings and technology while exploring thei... morer distinct driving characters and interior philosophies. Both cars, positioned as more 'savvy' and cost-conscious versions of their performance siblings, offer impressive acceleration (0-62 mph in around 4 seconds) and competitive WLTP ranges of approximately 285 miles, translating to a real-world range of 220-230 miles. Their 800-volt architecture enables rapid charging, reaching 80% in about 20 minutes on a 350kW charger. The primary divergence lies in their driving dynamics and cabin experiences. The Taycan 4S is lauded for its sharp, responsive, and precise handling, feeling like a true sports car despite its weight. The e-tron GT, while still quick and capable, offers a slightly softer, more relaxed, and comfortable GT-like experience. Interior-wise, Porsche's cabin is praised for its slick graphics and intuitive layout, though its extensive options list can inflate the price significantly. Audi's interior is equally well-made, featuring a configurable virtual cockpit and physical climate controls, but also carries a substantial options list. Ultimately, the review suggests the Taycan offers a more engaging, albeit pricier, sporty drive, while the e-tron GT provides a more comfortable and relaxed grand tourer experience, making the choice dependent on personal preference and budget. less
Hyundai Ioniq 5 2021 Review
The Hyundai Ioniq 5 is presented as a revolutionary electric vehicle, built on a dedicated EV platform with a striking, retro-inspired design that is ... moresure to divide opinion. The reviewer highlights its spacious and adaptable interior, featuring a flat floor, a movable center console, and high-quality materials, many of which are recycled. The dual 12.3-inch screens and physical climate controls are praised for their intuitiveness and user-friendliness. Key strengths include its exceptionally fast 800V charging capability, capable of reaching 80% in under 20 minutes, and impressive refinement, rivaling premium German brands. The reviewer notes the dual-motor, AWD version offers potent acceleration (300 hp, 5.2s 0-60) and a claimed range of up to 268 miles, though initial real-world efficiency was slightly disappointing at 3.2 miles/kWh. While the driving experience is described as comfortable and quiet, it's noted as more 'limousine-like' than sporty, with some body roll. The reviewer expresses a slight concern that the distinctive styling might not age well, but ultimately concludes that the Ioniq 5's blend of innovative tech, practicality, and rapid charging makes it a compelling, albeit quirky, proposition. less
Mercedes EQA 2021 Review – Is The Baby EQ The Best Electric Benz?
The Mercedes EQA 2021 is reviewed as a practical, if not bespoke, entry into the electric vehicle market. While it leverages the existing GLA platform... more, it offers a premium Mercedes interior experience with dual 10-inch screens and high-quality materials, feeling more expensive than its competitors. Positives include a comfortable and quiet ride, good soundproofing, and a refined driving experience. The 66.5 kWh battery offers a usable WLTP range of 263 miles, and charging is efficient, with 10-80% possible in 30 minutes on a rapid charger. However, the EQA faces criticism for its compromised interior packaging, leading to an uncomfortable seating position for taller drivers and a surprisingly small 340-liter boot. The lack of a front trunk (frunk) is also noted. Performance from the single-motor, front-wheel-drive EQA250 is described as adequate but not exhilarating, especially given its over two-ton weight. The reviewers highlight that while it may not be the most efficient or dynamically superior EV, it excels as a comfortable, classy, and convenient Mercedes for those looking to transition to electric mobility. less

The Electrifying.com comparison pits the Volvo XC40 P8 Recharge against the Jaguar I-PACE, highlighting their distinct approaches to the premium elect... moreric SUV segment. The I-PACE, a pioneer in the EV space, is praised for its bespoke electric platform, sleek design, sporty handling, and advanced Pivi Pro infotainment system. Its larger battery offers superior range (292 miles WLTP), and its driving dynamics, including torque vectoring and sharp steering, are lauded as class-leading. However, its higher starting price and a slightly less practical interior for families are noted drawbacks. The Volvo XC40 P8 Recharge, while sharing its powertrain with the Polestar 2, is commended for its practicality, thoughtful interior tech that remains under the radar, and a more accessible price point (starting around £53,000). It offers a comfortable, calm driving experience and a more upright, accessible driving position. Its main disadvantages are a smaller boot, a less engaging driving experience compared to the I-PACE, and a smaller battery leading to less range (257 miles WLTP). Ultimately, the choice hinges on priorities: the I-PACE for driving purists and tech enthusiasts, and the XC40 for practicality-focused buyers seeking better value. less

The Kia Soul EV stands out with its unique, boxy-yet-sporty design and a comfortable, long-range offering, though its interior is noted as feeling slightly dated. The Citroen e-C4 prioritizes comfort with its memory foam seats and supple ride, but its shorter range (217 miles WLTP) and higher price point make it less compelling compared to the others. The Volkswagen ID.3, a bespoke EV, impresses with its spacious interior, good handling, and a feeling of being a true electric car, despite some perceived compromises in interior quality and a conservative exterior design. Ultimately, the reviewers are torn, with one favoring the fun factor and distinctiveness of the Soul, while the other leans towards the ID.3 for its modern, purpose-built EV nature, despite its grey exterior. less

The reviewer highlights the Mac... moreh-E's premium feel, stylish design with Mustang cues, and comfortable ride, particularly appreciating the "whisper" drive mode for its relaxed driving experience. The "First Edition" model, with its extended range battery and AWD, is noted for its impressive grip and acceleration. However, the reviewer finds the steering somewhat numb and the car feels bulky on UK roads. The Tesla Model 3 is praised for its sorted product feel, sporty driving dynamics, and minimalist interior, though the lack of a driver's display is a drawback. The Model 3's value proposition, especially in performance trims, is emphasized.

The MINI Electric is lauded ... morefor its superior driving dynamics, quick acceleration (0-62mph in 7.3s), and engaging handling, making it the "joyous car" and "best to drive." However, its 145-mile range is considered marginal by some, and its styling is deemed "too common" by one reviewer.

While it steers well and feels light, its acceleration is the slowest. Ultimately, the MINI wins on driving pleasure and style for some, the Fiat 500e offers the best balance of range, value, and style, and the Mazda MX-30 appeals to those prioritizing practicality. less
