    My vote goes to MG4, what an amazing car!

      Literally can’t understand why it’s wasn’t near the top. ID BUZZ??? NO 1 WHY??

      Agreed. And frankly I don’t know why the BMW iX3 is even in this list. It is a lazy effort by BMW converting an internal combustion car to electric.

    In amongst this line up I understand the choices…. But I would like to see a Top Ten list based around good BEV’s that are available, based on their waiting list. Any vehicle that is NOT available within 6 months should automatically be crossed off the list.

    The best car is around £61000. Great value! Where does the presenter live?

      Value and price are two different things 🙂

      @Niels Sparre  The price is too high for what you are getting, which means not a good VALUE.

    I don’t get the Tesla Model 3 fanboi boast about practicality. It has a boot, not a batchack and thus is fatally flawed. If Herr Musk has released the Model 3 as a hatch ack I could understand the hype.

    I was interested in the MG4 but the dealer network is awful so I have decided to give that a miss. Instead I chose a used ID.3 58kWh. Does everything we want, isn’t a huge bloaty blob and is a lot cheaper to run than an equivalent Golf.

      I wouldn’t say the model 3 is flawed, if you need the extra practicality of a hatch then go for the model y. A 3 with a hatch would be a unbeatable combination for a lot of people though.

    Pretty pointless list since it is largely just most expensive is best.

    Not a single b segment EV got represented here and only 1 C. Who was this list for?

    Surprised to not see the Kia e Niro listed here

      The KIA E Niro is no longer being made. It is now the KIA Niro, I have the new version and can confirm it is an amazing car.

    None of them, at any price, will get me from Peterborough to Gloucester and back, in the real World, without stopping for a charge. Did it this weekend in my RSQ3 and still had over 110 miles left in the tank. A Car magazine multi EV winter range test showed none of the cars got within 100 miles of their WLTP range. The iD Buzz achieved 160 miles on a full charge……..not good for a vehicle marketed as a tourer.

      Why are you driving from Peterborough to Gloucester n back not stopping? Odd hobby

    2. Malph Avatar

      @80Y3R You seriously think I drive there and back without stopping? I go to Gloucester to visit our 2 year old Granddaughter. And there’s no charging facility at my son’s house. An extra hour with my Granddaughter trumps an hour charging or waiting to charge at a freezing cold services….And seriously…..”an odd hobby”!

    I like the Cadillac escalade ESV from 2020 for seeing that it has a Cadillac escalade ESV Electric like the 2020 one day because this is a my favorite Car brand. 😢

      I hope it’s the future, what’s the bonnet for? Screenwash? I mean it’s too big but yeah can’t sell a small one for quite so much.

    I knew this was just Vw advertising when you put a nice looking expensive bus ahead of more reasonably priced metal. The range on that is buzz just doesn’t cut it. Range isn’t everything, but it counts … a lot. I quite like the design but the interior materials just will not hold up to my kids 😂

    You should be talking about there’s Not enough Working public chargers . If we are to believe the report in the Times last week stating there is only 30 ev to a charger and that Failed the target of 300K public chargers by 2020 . Unless you have Home charging then people have charging problems . Coz what you Stated about the Ionic 5 and the Already range improvement probably the Most Important part of an EV ,is best imo wait till 2030 where we will see Any New Batteries Tech etc and How many public chargers . At the moment Tesla is still best EV simply coz they understood there’s No point making a EV without charging points and they took the Brave decision to install chargers them selfs instead of Relying on governments or companies installing them …as we can see .

    MG4 @ £26000 might be cheap for those on a good salary but a family man with 3 kids , mortgage rates going up and everything else going up isn’t an option and most will just buy a reasonably priced petrol/ diesel car as a family car.

      No not cheap but a base Ford Focus is about that new these days.

    The id buzz is overrated/ overpriced and pointless – it’s an outdated mini van that happens to be a ev. And mini van better at half the price

    Blah blah another list of stupid premium cars that barely fit in a parking bay

    Bizarre. I had a Model 3 for 3 years, and now have a Model Y. Loved the 3, but the Y is better in every practical way apart from outright performance and handling which What Car don’t usually care about very much (unlike Evo, TG, Car etc) so no idea why the Y doesn’t even make it into the top 10. It’s the best selling EV and in the top 10 for worldwide sales so that many people cant be wrong. ID Buzz is lipstick on a pig (MEB platform).

    No Jeep Avenger on the “what to look out for” list, given the rave reviews it’s had so far?

    You can still buy houses for the price of these and they’re likely to go up in value rather than way down 😅

    What about the children mining in DR Congo and the pollution we are doing to the world just making the batteries . Now we are hearing about the pollution at the new battery materials mine in the USA?
