If you've selected the Firestorm wheels with the wider Michelin EV tyres the range will be closer to 280 miles in the summer.

AI note that there is a noticeable lack of posts from the anti-EV crowd.

EV's is a big scam.

Last good Honda Jazz was 2019 Sport, manual, petrol etc.

Hi I am nako

It's a financial no brainer if you can make it work and EVs are great to drive in terms of ease and comfort. I've had my Kia Soul Ev for over 4 years now with no regrets and I've had my share of interesting ICE cars too. Good luck on your EV ownership journey.

Awesome review!! Totally agree with you...its a fun machine every time i get in and drive i start smiling😊. I bought a mk 3 ultra a month ago and got it tuned to 248bhp 468nm and its very sporty for less than 13 grand!! What a car for the money!! Performance is awesome and still getting 50/60 mpg... whats not to love. Well done btw your informative enthusiastic review nailed it!!!

Looks great well done!!!xxx

Nice very Tastefully Done 👍 ? Didn’t need to Cover your Nips? Natural Looks Better 👍 Just Saying! 👍 🤷‍♂️ 🇨🇦 👨‍🌾 Old Guy

JCW is better.

Wish you could get a GT Version with a hard top roof and metal doors.

I still ride my motorcycle for long trips, but all my short trips have been done with my 2011 Nissan Leaf (still on original battery) since I don't care about range (it still gets over 60 miles which is plenty for what I use it for). If you take care of the battery it will last.

I have been driving electric for the past 6 years and I wont get another ICE car, ever!

I’m a self confessed petrol head and switched to an EV6 gt-line S this year and it is great. I can charge at home (PodPoint) and haven’t yet needed a public charger. It’s fast (quicker than my previous car - Macan S), fun, loads of tech, is cheap to charge and works for me and my driving scenario’s these days. It won’t be for everyone, but at a real-world 270-280 miles (300m advertised) range, it works.

Would have been nice if you showed us around your new EV.

Oh no, your driving a fast milk float :-( just lacks soul 😢

quality of the vid is very low :(

Battery, still waiting for you to explain the conspiracy that the government will control my charging. The same government that can’t implement Brexit controls or build a railway from London to Manchester or even handle postal ballots.

Can someone explain to me what happens when hydrogen cars take off which they say charge in 5 minutes,at the moment i charge my electric car at home takes about 6 hours for 50% so will my electric car be worthless?

I'm very happy you have an EV and I haven't and never will.

Dear Bex's Dad, Dude you are utterly full of crap. Your personal range limit is 180 miles per road trip segment (not the Marvel Comic 500 miles fantasy in your mind) this applies to EVERY BLOKE OVER 49 because that 180 miles is as far as any 50+ male bladder can go without a piss break!! Anyone who thinks driving 500 miles without a break is safe driving needs their licence and car keys taking away from them...which will be happening to you sooner rather than later anyway. Who do you think your kidding Pops?! regards hsm

TIP TO ALL: You don't want an APP operated home wall box. Get a ROLEC and have the installer go through a process that will make it simply plug and play with no APP or anything to do. If your installer is not aware of this simply phone ROLEC and they will walk him through the process.

Have no idea why (at least I see it that way) the video is with super poor quality at 360 p. Apart of that those two actually "sits together" in one of my dream garages - great combination for not super expensive fun cars for driving enjoyment.

All types of cars depreciate the moment you drive it out of the showroom, about 20%! Don’t believe juts buy any car today and then sell it straight away. Why? Buying Price is always higher then Reselling Price, bcos you need someone to buy it off you. Once your brand new car leaves the showroom it becomes a 2nd hand car. The 2nd hand car market is the Wild West for used cars. Being in Fact a “Used Car” or “2nd Car” does not usually glow in commanding value. So all cars depreciate big time. If you don’t intend to resell your car soon after driving it off the showroom, then depreciation is not such a concern. Fact of life : everything depreciates! However, the “Useful Life” of your vehicle/asset can be extended over time if it’s properly maintained. In other words some vehicles depreciate faster because it’s been thrashed, neglected, abused etc. Well maintained vehicles do not depreciate as quickly as a neglected vehicle, but all vehicles depreciate about 20% by just leaving a showroom, in general. So long you can accept that fact, go buy a new car and enjoy it. Have fun! I also just bought a brand new Tesla and love it!

I’ve got a corsa e and love it dose enough mileage for me and use cheep tariff at night and great getting the car warm before I get in it 🎉

Good choice Bex. I know there are those out there who say you can’t be a petrol head and drive an EV. Enjoy the money savings and still being able to enjoy driving. We’re 3 years into EV ownership and wouldn’t look back. We still have and SLK for the summer 😎

Un subbing

Another porsche? x

Totally makes sense using an EV but only really works if you can have a home charger to charge cheap off peak, its not worth it if you have to use chargers at car parks etc.

Yup. A practical and sound financial decision for day-to-day life. Just a pity that some people are incapable of accepting your choices and being respectful. We bought an ID.3 standard range before the Born was available. 200 miles range in winter works just fine for our needs and like you say, less than 3 pence a mile in fuel is a no brainer.

I'm not against electric cars but if I ever do go ev it would have to be something more powerful

A quick calculation suggests you are only achieving about 30mpg from your ICE car. This seems incredibly low for a modern engine 🤔

B!tchin' Ride...

i have a ten year old leaf. in the six months ive owned it ive used public charging no more than 5 times. home charge is nearly daily. 8.5 pence per kw over night. oh and as its winter the car warms itself for me before i drive. but today disaster the battery died and car wouldn't start. so new battery bought £35 pounds and fitted with a 10mm spanner. yes this is my second car the other a t4 camper. never will i but ice car again.

So much better elsewhere.

Can Dad really do that many miles without stopping. never mind the battery thats some Bladder control. ps that would be a good vid to make.

Give it 12 months she will be bored and getting something new. Miss the old Becky with Lotus and Porsche cars have been getting worse. All the running costs are base on never using public charging which is not realistic

Tell us about “some of the myths “…. You mean things like EV fires are far more lethal than ICE cars ? Or how about depreciation ? Greatly reduced range in cold weather ? Limited servicing options due to lack of trained mechanics ?

Same home charger as i have . And i have a white enyaq iv 80. Even the door and socket on the car look the same.

Now you and your partner can fight over who has the charger😂

How Much Was the Lease plus your car insurance ?

Motorway @ 70mph you might get 200 miles in winter, 260 in warmer weather.

🤔⚡️😒⛽️😃the reason is not to help climate change then? 😂😂😂

As long as you get a home charger an ev makes more sense as a daily driver.. petrol toy for the weekend. You can still be into cars and have an ev !

Very sound logic, if you can dodge the public charging network and mainly charge at home, you should make some significant savings and have a more practical car too. Still not convinced about the environmental credentials though but it should really help to improve air quality in cities.

You need to read your handbook. You can increase or decrease the cruise control in 5mph increments

Nice! What's the headlights like?

Interested to see how you get on with the cupra born as the wife is considering one. I moved to the enyaq vrs in march and the car has been great!

Hi Bex sounds like a no brainer to me. I am currently looking at swapping my car. Does a Labrador fit into the boot of a Born? Yours sounds well spaced which version did you go for?
