    This looks good but ID7 said it has 390 miles of range soooo…

      Always take 15-30% away from a claimed WLTP range

    From £46k eh? They’ll be £15k in a few years time. 👍

    Plenty of room in that Centre console, Nicola for sneaky snacks

    Quite like the look of that , might be something to look at if we downsize from our enyaq in the future .

    Feels a little pricey when Kia is smashing it at the minute but the range if proven is tempting

    The heat pump is an optional extra on fords website if you try and spec one up

      Correct. Is not standard with the Select or the Premium.

    A lot of people say it’s good for skis not curtain poles 😆

      Skis AND curtain poles. And not necessarily at the same time! 😂

    Was going to get the Mustang Mach E but I think I’m now sold on this

    Since I drive a Mach-E every day, I don’t actually forget about it. 🙂

      How’ve you found the mach E? Good? Great? Bad? Hearing mixed things myself and I’m looking at a few EVs

    Given that Ford’s taken so long, they really needed to knock it out the park. Instead we’ve got a 6/10.

    I’ve just visited Norway and there were absolutely loads of Mach-Es

      I see quite a few here in the UK too. They don’t do it for me. Should have looked more like an actual Mustang but definitely not that few and far between!

    Great review Nicola, you keep it simple, the centre console will store you handbag and wine on your way to the party, 😂, this is a nice Suv as they go nowadays, i would still prefer a RWD saloon over an SUV, here in Canada even with the extreme winters i don not need AWD in the winter, i just buy good snow tires and have never really had any issues over 45 years of driving , all these new vehicles ICE or BEV have traction control to help you in adverse conditions, Long range battery and the base powertrain is all I’d want so i could still get maximum range, I am still partial to the I.D. 3 and 4, having driven them both here, they have the best value for the price, don’t want FWD, just me, Ford’s track record here in N.A. has been sketchy although the Mach-E has done well its just our winters are extreme here ,regularly -25 celsius plus windchill so it really reduces range on your EV, as much in the extremes as 40% from a full charge, even if your only driving 60 miles/daily ,so 300 miles of true range turns out to be 180 miles , a tough call to make 👍

    At least here in Finland you can get the equivalent of an ID.4 GTX for about 11 000 € less than the actual ID.4 GTX. The base version is cheaper as well, but Ford seems to have wanted to throw you the performance model on the cheap.

    Seems decent, but also somewhat uninspiring. Not a bad buy though, except that I so badly associate that badge with early 90’s Escorts

    Where’s the efiesta equivelant or efocus. That’s what’s lacking rather than a car that sits in the same bracket as their only other ev
