Sneak Peek - Hyundai Ioniq 6N - Another N-credible Performance EV from Hyundai?

The Hyundai Ioniq 6N is presented as the highly anticipated successor to the acclaimed Ioniq 5N, aiming to further elevate Hyundai's performance ... moreEV credentials. The reviewer highlights the car's aggressive, N-specific styling, including a prominent rear wing and aerodynamic enhancements, noting it's a departure from the standard Ioniq 6's more understated design. Practicality is maintained with 401L of boot space and generous rear seating, consistent with the Ioniq 6. The interior features supportive bucket seats (manual for weight saving) and a driver-focused cockpit with extensive button controls and dual 12.3-inch displays. Key performance features discussed include the N Grin Boost, N Shift (virtual gear shifts with sound simulation), N Battery preconditioning, and advanced N Drift Optimizer with adjustable angles and wheel slip. While official performance figures and pricing remain undisclosed ahead of its Goodwood reveal, the reviewer estimates a 0-60 mph time under 3.5 seconds, powered by 641 horsepower from dual motors. The estimated range is around 469 km (291 miles) from its 84 kWh battery, with 10-80% charging in 18 minutes via a 350 kW charger. The reviewer expresses high confidence in Hyundai's N division to deliver another exceptional driver's car, comparing it favorably to rivals like the Tesla Model 3 Performance and BMW i4 M50, and anticipates it will be a 'masterpiece' and a 'winner'. less

Sneak Peek - Kia EV5 - All the Details of Kia's Next Big Blockbuster!

The Kia EV5 is presented as a significant contender in the C-segment SUV market, aiming to capture buyers looking for a practical, stylish, and techno... morelogically advanced electric vehicle. The reviewer highlights its design, which blends Kia's signature "Opposites United" language with a more traditional two-box SUV silhouette, reminiscent of a shrunken EV9. Practicality is a major focus, with praise for the 566L boot space (expandable to over 600L with the floor lowered), the flat-folding rear seats, and ample interior storage solutions, including a clever sliding drawer. The interior features a familiar Kia layout with three screens, including a central 5.3-inch climate control display and support for features like ChatGPT. While the reviewer notes the single motor, 214 hp RWD configuration at launch, they anticipate future dual-motor and performance variants. The predicted range is up to 329 miles (WLTP), with 130 kW charging capability. The reviewer concludes that if Kia can deliver on pricing, equipment, and the driving experience, the EV5 has the potential to be another blockbuster, especially given its positioning as the electric equivalent to the best-selling Sportage in the UK market. less

New Genesis Electrified GV70 - Why This Is Better Than Any Of Its Rivals

The Genesis Electrified GV70 receives a significant facelift for 2025, aiming to bolster its appeal in the competitive luxury electric SUV segment. Wh... moreile exterior styling sees only subtle refinements, the interior is dramatically enhanced with a new 27-inch OLED display and improved materials, earning it praise as potentially the best interior in its class. The larger 84 kWh battery offers a WLTP range of up to 298 miles, with real-world testing suggesting efficiency improvements over the previous model. Performance remains strong, but the reviewer emphasizes that the GV70's true strengths lie in its exceptional comfort, refinement, and quietness, surpassing even more expensive rivals like the Range Rover. Downsides include a somewhat vague steering feel and a boot that, despite adequate volume, lacks practicality due to its shallow depth and the placement of the charging cables. The controversial "virtual gear shift" technology, while technically impressive, is deemed unnecessary for this model's luxury focus. Despite a price increase, the enhanced features and Genesis's comprehensive 5-year warranty and service package are seen as offering good value. less

Alfa Romeo Junior Veloce - The Small Alfa With A Big Problem...

The Alfa Romeo Junior Veloce aims to blend the brand's sporty heritage with the growing performance EV crossover segment. Visually, the Veloce im... morepresses with a lower stance and larger wheels, making it a standout compared to its Stellantis siblings. The interior design is stylish, featuring a driver-focused infotainment screen and a unique instrument cluster. The Veloce offers a genuinely fun driving experience, with engaging handling and immediate throttle response in dynamic mode, feeling more like a hot hatch than a crossover. However, the review highlights significant drawbacks. Interior material quality, particularly on the dashboard, is criticized for feeling cheap and showing wear quickly. The electric range is merely average, and the brakes suffer from the typical Stellantis lack of feel. The most substantial issue is the price; even with options, the Veloce is significantly more expensive than key rivals like the Abarth 600E and Mini Aceman JCW, and even the Alpine A290, making it difficult to justify despite its driving dynamics and styling. less

Base Model Battle – Kia EV3, Škoda Elroq, or Volvo EX30?

This comparison review pits the base models of the Kia EV3 Air, Škoda Elroq SE, and Volvo EX30 Plus against each other to determine the best value com... morepact family EV SUV. The Kia EV3 Air impresses with its futuristic styling and a refined, easy-to-live-with driving experience, offering a comfortable ride and good visibility. However, its interior feels a bit too gray, and the boot space, while versatile with a variable floor, is shallower than expected. The Škoda Elroq SE stands out for its practicality, offering the most generous boot space and clever storage solutions, coupled with a premium-feeling interior made from recycled materials. Its driving experience is exceptionally refined and quiet, making it ideal for long journeys. The Volvo EX30 Plus, while the sportiest and most engaging to drive with its quick acceleration and agile handling, suffers from significantly compromised practicality, particularly in boot space and rear passenger room. Its minimalist interior, while stylish, relies heavily on the central touchscreen, which can be distracting. Ultimately, the Škoda Elroq emerges as the most balanced choice for families prioritizing practicality and comfort, while the Kia EV3 offers a strong, stylish alternative with good refinement, and the Volvo EX30 appeals most to driving enthusiasts willing to overlook its spatial limitations. less

Kia EV6 GT - From Zero to Hero

The 2025 Kia EV6 GT has undergone a significant transformation, moving from a car that was merely fast to one that is genuinely engaging and fun to dr... moreive. While the previous GT was criticized for its unsettled ride and lack of driver involvement, the revised model boasts retuned suspension, dampers, and spring rates, along with an electronic limited-slip differential and virtual gear shift technology, mirroring the success of the Hyundai Ioniq 5N. The reviewer highlights the car's ability to flow through corners with improved compliance and grip, making it a true Grand Tourer. The interior receives welcome updates, including electric seats with memory, a reduction in piano black trim, and new textured materials. Performance is boosted to 641 horsepower, with a 0-60 mph time of 3.5 seconds and a top speed of 161 mph. The larger 84 kWh battery offers a WLTP range of 279 miles, and charging is exceptionally fast, with 10-80% in 18 minutes. Despite its performance enhancements, the price has been reduced, making it better value than before. The reviewer struggles to find significant downsides, praising its design, refined driving dynamics, and overall package, suggesting it might be the best EV6 yet. less

BYD Dolphin Surf - Is BYD's Cheapest EV a Real Contender, or Just Washed Up?

The BYD Dolphin Surf enters the budget EV market as a compelling, value-driven option, though it falls short of class-leading polish. The reviewer hig... morehlights its strong standard equipment, reasonable interior space, and the choice of battery sizes as significant advantages, all backed by BYD's excellent warranty. However, the exterior styling is divisive, and the driving dynamics are described as average, with notable pitch and dive, and a suspension setup that feels too soft at the front and firm at the rear. While the interior quality is generally good and better than some cheaper rivals, it doesn't quite match the refinement of competitors like the Renault 5 or Hyundai Ioniq 5. The infotainment screen's usability, particularly for accessing features like brake regeneration, is criticized for being fiddly and unintuitive. Despite these drawbacks, the Dolphin Surf is praised for its ease of driving in urban environments and its excellent value for money, making it a solid, if not outstanding, choice for budget-conscious buyers seeking an easy-to-live-with electric car. less

Alpine A290 - Fast, Fun, French and Fully Electric; Alpine Creates a Masterpiece

The Alpine A290 is presented as a significant step forward for electric hot hatches, building upon the Renault 5 E-Tech platform. The reviewer highlig... morehts its distinct styling, with unique Alpine design cues like the four-lamp signature and snowflake motifs, setting it apart from its Renault counterpart. Significant engineering changes, including a new aluminum subframe and wider tracks, contribute to its dynamic prowess. The interior is praised for its quality and driver-focused design, though the lack of a cup holder is noted as a drawback. Performance is described as lively and engaging, with a balanced weight distribution (57% front, 43% rear) providing strong front-end grip and a playful rear end, offering a sophisticated yet fun driving experience that rivals like the Mini Cooper SE are said to lack. While the range (under 200 miles predicted from a full charge) and 100 kW charging speed are considered disappointing, the A290 is lauded for its usability, practicality (comparable to the Renault 5's boot space), and overall desirability. The reviewer concludes that Alpine has successfully transformed a good electric car into a spectacular, legendary hot hatch that moves the segment forward. less

Ford Mustang Mach E Rally - A Missed Opportunity, Or Finally a Fun Electric Ford?

The Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally is presented as a rally-inspired performance SUV, building upon the GT trim. While the reviewer praises the styling and ... morethe significant improvements in ride quality and handling over the standard GT, largely due to the retuned suspension and dampers, they highlight several missed opportunities. The reviewer criticizes Ford for not leveraging its motorsport heritage more effectively, particularly by not using the iconic 'RS' badge, despite the inclusion of an 'RS' driving mode. The vehicle's electrical architecture is noted as feeling dated, and charging speeds are considered slow by current standards. Real-world range is estimated to be in the high 200s miles, falling short of WLTP figures. The steering is also criticized for its vagueness. Despite the improvements, the reviewer concludes that the dynamics are not sharp enough for a top-tier performance EV and that the car is ultimately too expensive, especially when compared to rivals like the Hyundai Ioniq 5N. The Rally package itself offers good value, but its application on the expensive GT trim pushes the overall price to a point where it becomes a niche product for die-hard Ford enthusiasts. less

Mini Aceman JCW Versus Abarth 600e: Who Builds the Best Hot EV Crossover?

In this head-to-head comparison, the MINI Aceman JCW and Abarth 600e Scorpionissimo are evaluated as the best hot EV crossovers. The reviewer finds th... moree MINI Aceman JCW's styling divisive but praises its sophisticated and well-engineered chassis, offering a fun, dynamic driving experience reminiscent of a classic hot hatch, particularly in 'go-kart' mode. The interior is lauded for its premium feel and innovative circular OLED display, though the steering wheel is noted as being too thick. The Abarth 600e Scorpionissimo, on the other hand, is celebrated for its aggressive, eye-catching design and sporty character, evoking the spirit of traditional Abarth performance cars. Its driving dynamics are described as very sporty, with excellent supportive seats and a more engaging steering wheel. However, the Abarth's ride is noted as being less refined and more prone to crashing over bumps compared to the MINI, and its interior, while improved over the standard Fiat 600e, doesn't feel as special as the MINI's. In terms of practicality, the Abarth offers slightly more boot space, but the MINI provides better rear-seat accommodation. Usability sees the MINI edge out the Abarth with a slightly longer range. Ultimately, the reviewer leans towards the MINI Aceman JCW for its superior refinement, handling sophistication, and premium interior, despite the Abarth's more overtly sporting appeal and aggressive styling. less

Toyota bZ4X Touring: Toyota's Electric SUV Goes Wild!

The Toyota bZ4X Touring represents a significant step forward for Toyota's electric SUV offering, addressing key criticisms of the original model... more. The reviewer highlights substantial improvements in styling, with the Touring variant adopting a more rugged and appealing SUV aesthetic compared to the standard bZ4X. Interior quality and design have also seen a major upgrade, featuring a more modern dashboard, a larger 14-inch infotainment screen with improved usability, and better materials, moving away from the previous 'grayness' and perceived cheapness. Practicality is a strong suit, boasting a cavernous 600-liter boot and ample rear passenger space. While charging speeds remain at a respectable but not class-leading 150 kW, efficiency is expected to be improved thanks to new motor components. The vehicle offers both front-wheel drive (221 hp) and a more powerful dual-motor all-wheel-drive option (376 hp), with the AWD system featuring Toyota's X-mode for enhanced off-road capability. The reviewer particularly praises the focus on off-road ability and outdoor activities, setting it apart in its segment. Despite a late entry into the market, the bZ4X Touring is positioned as a compelling option for adventure-oriented families, with Toyota's renowned reliability and an excellent 10-year warranty package adding further appeal. less

Sneak Peek - Lexus ES - Lexus Gets Into Its Electric Stride

Lexus makes a significant entry into the electric luxury saloon segment with the new ES350e, showcasing a bold design evolution and a focus on refinem... moreent and comfort. The reviewer highlights the car's substantial growth in size, its sleek, fastback-inspired styling, and the luxurious interior appointments, particularly the ambient lighting and spacious rear seating with an optional ottoman. While Lexus's previous EV efforts have been met with mixed results, the ES350e appears to be a step in the right direction, emphasizing Lexus's core strengths of luxury and quietness over sportiness. However, potential drawbacks include a less-than-class-leading charging speed of 150 kW and a projected range that might fall below 300 miles for the all-wheel-drive variant. The reviewer praises the innovative "hidden switches" and the advanced infotainment system with integrated navigation and charging information. Despite some reservations about charging and range, the overall impression is positive, positioning the ES350e as a compelling option for those prioritizing comfort and luxury in an electric saloon. less

Sneak Peek - Alpine A390 - The Perfect Balance?

The Alpine A390 marks a significant departure for the brand, venturing into the electric crossover segment with a distinct fastback design. The review... moreer highlights its striking styling, heavily influenced by the A110 sports car, and praises its bespoke Alpine identity, differentiating it from re-engineered Renault models. Practicality is addressed with a 532-liter boot, though rear passenger space and the lack of a rear center armrest are noted as minor drawbacks. The interior features a Google-based infotainment system and high-quality materials, including Alcantara and carbon fiber, creating a premium driver-focused environment. Performance is a key focus, with the GTS model boasting 470 hp and 650 Nm of torque from its tri-motor setup, enabling a 0-60 mph time of 3.9 seconds. The advanced torque-vectoring system is expected to enhance handling significantly. With an 89 kWh battery offering an estimated range of up to 344 miles and 190 kW DC charging, the A390 aims for a balance of performance, style, and practicality, positioning itself as a compelling, albeit premium, offering in the competitive EV market. less

Farizon SV - The New Electric Super Van?

The Farizon SV enters the electric commercial vehicle market with a strong, futuristic design and a ground-up EV platform, differentiating it from con... moreverted ICE vans. The reviewer highlights excellent visibility thanks to a large windscreen and forward-positioned A-pillars. Practicality is a key strength, with a spacious load area, low load height, and optional 270° rear door opening. The interior offers a clean, simple layout with a good balance of physical buttons and a touchscreen, plus high standard equipment levels including heated and ventilated seats and a heated steering wheel. The reviewer notes a potential downside in the driving position, finding it slightly awkward with limited steering wheel reach adjustment. Performance is described as adequate with a front-mounted 231 PS motor, though the sport mode's throttle response was found to be overly sharp. Ride quality is decent, with sophisticated front suspension, though rear leaf springs are traditional. Wind noise at higher speeds is noted as slightly more than expected. The van's maneuverability is a standout positive, with an impressively tight turning circle and easy low-speed handling, aided by 360° cameras. Range figures are competitive, with WLTP estimates up to 234 miles for the 83 kWh battery, though real-world figures without payload are noted. Charging is capable up to 140 kW, with 20-80% taking 36 minutes. The reviewer is impressed by Farizon's commitment to owner operators, with a 4-year warranty and overnight parts supply via DHL, backed by the financial stability of Gilly Holdings. Overall, the Farizon SV is presented as a highly competent and well-thought-out electric van, making a very positive first impression in a competitive segment. less

Lotus Eletre - Why This Isn't Lotus's Best EV

The Lotus Eletre R is presented as a "hyper SUV" with immense power (905 hp) and blistering acceleration, capable of 0-60 mph in under 3 sec... moreonds. While its styling is praised for making a large SUV look sporty, and the interior boasts high-quality materials and impressive technology, the Eletre R falls short in key areas. The reviewer notes that the ride is surprisingly less refined and compliant than the E-Mera, feeling a bit "brittle" due to a stiff chassis setup that limits wheel travel. Despite its impressive braking and steering, it doesn't feel as cohesive or luxurious as expected for its segment, nor as dynamically focused as a Lotus should be. The real-world range on the R model is also a concern, dropping significantly from the WLTP estimate. While the Eletre R is undeniably fast and well-built, the reviewer questions if its extreme performance and high price tag are truly necessary or beneficial, suggesting the less powerful S (or 600) model might be a more sensible choice. Ultimately, the Eletre R is seen as a capable but conflicted vehicle, trying to be too many things and not excelling in any single one. less

Lotus Emeya - The Lotus Blossoms

The Lotus Emeya represents a significant and ambitious departure for the brand, moving from lightweight sports cars to a large, all-electric hyper-GT.... more The reviewer highlights its striking, futuristic design and impressive aerodynamic efficiency, noting its substantial size, exceeding even the Porsche Taycan. Inside, the Emeya boasts a high-quality, tech-rich cabin, with a standout infotainment system and a phenomenal KEF audio setup. Practicality is a strong suit, offering more boot space than key rivals and a comfortable, spacious rear seating area, though the driving position is noted as being a bit too high for a traditional GT feel. Performance is strong, with the S model (soon to be 600) offering 603 hp and a 0-60 mph time of 4.1 seconds, while the R (900) is significantly faster. Real-world efficiency was impressive, averaging just under 4 miles per kWh. Charging is exceptionally fast, capable of 10-80% in 18 minutes on a 350 kW charger. While not as sharp as a Taycan, the Emeya excels as a refined, comfortable grand tourer with a superb chassis and excellent refinement, particularly on the motorway. The reviewer's main criticism is the slightly elevated driving position, which detracts from the desired intimate GT feel. less

Renault 4 - And You Thought The Renault 5 Was Good...

The Renault 4 E-Tech is presented as a more practical and grown-up sibling to the Renault 5, targeting a family audience and a broader market segment.... more Reviewers praise its stylish, retro-inspired exterior design, which successfully pays homage to the original without being overly nostalgic. The interior is highlighted for its practicality, spaciousness for its class, and the excellent Google-based infotainment system, which is lauded for its usability and app integration. Specific praise is given to the low load height, the ability to fold the front passenger seat for extended cargo, and the comfortable, supportive seats. However, a significant criticism is the interior's dark ambiance, which can feel claustrophobic, and the lack of a panoramic roof option. While the driving experience is described as refined and comfortable, with responsive steering and a mature feel, the charging speed is noted as a drawback, topping out at 100 kW. Despite these points, the Renault 4 E-Tech is considered a strong contender in its segment, offering a compelling blend of style, practicality, and technology at a competitive price point, potentially even being the best in its class. less

Sneak Peek - Kia PV5 - Kia Means Business

The Kia PV5 marks Kia's ambitious entry into the light commercial vehicle (LCV) market, leveraging their established expertise in electric vehicl... morees to create a versatile and practical van. The reviewer highlights Kia's success in translating their design language to a commercial platform, noting distinctive features like the star map lighting and digital tiger nose. A key strength is the PV5's modularity and adaptability, with Kia offering various body conversions directly, a departure from traditional industry practices. The low load height (419mm) is repeatedly praised as class-leading and a significant practical advantage for loading. Interior design balances car-like comfort with commercial functionality, featuring separate driver and infotainment displays running Android Automotive OS. Practicality is further enhanced by ample storage, optional twin sliding doors, and the availability of passenger and wheelchair-accessible variants. While specific pricing is not confirmed, an estimated starting point below £30,000 (excluding VAT) before grants positions it as highly competitive, especially against rivals like the VW ID. Buzz Cargo. The PV5 is presented as a potential disruptor, backed by Kia's strong reputation and a 7-year/100,000-mile warranty. less

Lexus RZ300e - The Best Electric Lexus? I Took It To Cornwall To Find Out!

The Lexus RZ 300e represents a significant improvement over its predecessor, the RZ 450e, addressing key criticisms regarding efficiency and range. Wh... moreile the 450e was a disappointment with poor efficiency and a woeful range, the 300e, despite retaining the same battery, delivers a much more competitive real-world performance. The reviewer highlights that the 300e achieves its claimed WLTP range of 297 miles, with actual driving yielding over 4 miles per kWh, a substantial leap from the 450e. Positives include Lexus's signature refinement, comfort, and build quality, a sharp and attractive design, and a well-appointed interior that feels premium, especially with the optional tan leather. The practicality, including boot space and rear-seat room, is deemed sufficient for families. Negatives are minor, with the steering noted as vague and the brake pedal feel slightly odd, though these are overshadowed by the car's strengths. The reviewer strongly recommends the 300e over the 450e, citing better range, lower cost, and a more appropriate performance level for a luxury-focused SUV. The pricing is considered competitive, and the 10-year warranty (with dealer servicing) is a significant ownership benefit. less

Goodbye to my Genesis Electrified GV70 - Will I miss it?

After a six-month, 3,500-mile ownership period, the reviewer bids a fond farewell to the Genesis Electrified GV70, admitting initial skepticism was mi... moresplaced. The car is praised for its exceptional refinement, smooth ride quality aided by a camera-scanning suspension, and a remarkably quiet cabin thanks to acoustic glass. The interior quality is highlighted, with particular appreciation for the tactile feel of materials, the damped wireless charger cover, and the premium rotary controllers. The reviewer also commends the comfortable Nappa leather seats, especially the massaging function, and the well-integrated ambient lighting. Practicality is deemed acceptable, though the boot's shallow depth is noted as a minor drawback for larger items like wheelchairs. The reviewer is particularly impressed by the 800-volt architecture enabling rapid charging (10-80% in 18 minutes), which mitigates concerns about the real-world range of around 235 miles. The main criticism is the steering, described as vague and lacking precision, which detracts from its potential as a spirited driver's car. Despite the high price point (nearly £80,000 as tested), the reviewer concludes the car offers significant value, especially on the used market, and expresses a strong personal and familial attachment, making its departure a sad occasion. less

Mercedes EQV300 - Oh Dear, How Times Have Changed For This Big Electric Benz

The Mercedes-Benz EQV300, once a commendable electric MPV, now struggles to keep pace in a rapidly evolving EV market. While it retains its strengths ... morein passenger comfort, spaciousness, and a user-friendly MBUX infotainment system, significant drawbacks overshadow its premium aspirations. The reviewer highlights the van-like driving experience, which feels less refined than competitors like the Volkswagen ID. Buzz. Critically, the EQV300 suffers from a poor real-world range (struggling to exceed 200 miles even in milder conditions), slow charging speeds (45 minutes for a 10-80% charge), and a high price tag exceeding £90,000. The manual seat adjustment on such an expensive vehicle is a notable disappointment. While it excels as a vehicle to be driven in, its value proposition as a private purchase is questionable, with better-equipped and more efficient alternatives like the Kia EV9 and ID. Buzz offering a more compelling package for families or businesses. less

Cupra Tavascan - The Skoda Enyaq's Stylish Cousin. Is It The Better Choice?

The Cupra Tavascan emerges as a surprisingly compelling option within the MEB platform family, offering a distinct character that sets it apart from i... morets siblings. The reviewer praises its striking, sporty design, both inside and out, highlighting the innovative use of sustainable materials and the well-executed interior styling, which manages to feel special despite shared components. Practicality is deemed sufficient for family needs, with good boot space and comfortable rear seating. On the driving front, while the single-motor version might lack outright performance for the Cupra badge, engaging the 'Cupra' driving mode significantly sharpens the car's dynamics, offering a more engaging and planted experience. The reviewer notes the chassis balance and steering response are commendable, though the car's weight is noticeable when pushed hard. Criticisms include the odd brake pedal feel and the premium pricing, especially for higher trims. Despite these points, the Tavascan is lauded as a well-rounded, characterful electric SUV that justifies its existence and stands out as a strong contender, potentially the best on the MEB platform until further comparison. less

Audi S6 E-tron Avant - Does Audi's Latest Performance Estate Uphold The Promise?

The Audi S6 e-tron Avant is presented as a significant step forward for Audi's electric performance estate cars, aiming to blend sportiness with ... morepracticality. The reviewer highlights Audi's historical strength in fast estate cars and positions this model as a potential return to form after some underwhelming electric offerings. Key positives include its relentless acceleration, described as a "tidal wave," and its comfortable, luxurious ride, especially with the standard air suspension. The design is generally praised for its stylish, aggressive estate look, though the front grille area and virtual mirrors are noted as less successful elements. The interior receives mixed reviews; while the graphics are crisp and clear, the overall dashboard design is considered a bit too large and less aesthetically pleasing than before. The touch-sensitive steering wheel buttons are a particular point of criticism. Practicality is decent, with a usable boot space and a functional interior, though it falls short of the BMW i5 Touring in load capacity. Charging is a strong point, with 10-80% in just 21 minutes thanks to 800-volt architecture. However, the reviewer emphasizes that this is a luxury car with performance, not a sharp driver's tool like a Porsche Taycan, and its weight is noticeable in tighter corners. Despite some design and interior quality quibbles, the S6 e-tron Avant is ultimately lauded as a "phenomenally good car" and a "proper jack of all trades," marking a significant improvement over previous Audi EVs. less

Xpeng G6 - Has the New Benchmark Arrived Out of Nowhere?

The Xpeng G6 emerges as a compelling contender in the medium-sized electric SUV market, aiming to challenge established players like the Tesla Model Y... more. The reviewer praises its stylish, modern design, which avoids anonymity, and highlights the spacious and airy interior, enhanced by a large glass roof. Practicality is a mixed bag; while boot space is decent, its shallow height limits the usability of larger items. The interior technology is extensive, with a responsive infotainment system supporting third-party apps like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, though the sheer volume of customizable settings can be overwhelming. The G6 boasts impressive real-world range, exceeding WLTP estimates, and benefits from 800V architecture for rapid charging. However, the driving experience is the G6's main drawback. The reviewer criticizes the unsettled, 'chattery' suspension and seats that lack support, leading to a feeling of not being 'in' the car, particularly during spirited driving or over bumps. The steering is described as vague and lacking communication. Despite these dynamic shortcomings, the G6 offers strong value for money, especially when compared to its rivals, making it a noteworthy option for buyers prioritizing tech, range, and design over outright driving dynamics. less
