It’s time for another awesome EV range test!
We’ve pulled together six of the latest & greatest all-electric cars to drive them straight North from London to see just how accurate their claimed ranges are. But we won't be stopping when the range hits 0... We'll keep driving them until they come to a complete standstill, to see just what happens!
So what do we have in the line-up? Well, we’ve gone for range-topping editions of all cars, apart from the first car Mat’s in - the Mustang Mach-E. Sadly, we could only get our hands on the entry-level version for this video. However, everything else in the line-up is top-of-the-range! And what a line-up it is...
Audi Q4 e-tron
Skoda Enyaq
BMW iX3
Hyundai IONIQ 5
Kia EV6
So which do you think will go the furthest? You’ll have to keep watching to find out!

Thanks
The Kia is actually pretty close to a good real world range.
10 years ago i would have laughed at the idea of buying a kia or hyundai. nowdays they are among my first choices. well done korea!
Agreed. Some of the best looking cars right now too.
Really?
really reliable cars! Although i still think they look a bit cheapo myself
@@dinohermann1887 yea they can go cry in the corner waiting for their mother and then go to her and cry
@@UKGBManny and the interiors are too cheap for me. Hard plastic in the front on a £45-50,000 car in the Hyundai?!?!
Kia sure has come a very long way in terms of quality, style and reliability
Yes i agree
LMAO what are you talking about, they are garbage and still the butt of jokes... they have had MAJOR recalls for the last 10 years and law suits... their EV just had major recalls do to fires.. so get real... they are trash!!
@@allentoyokawa9068 yes i know they are still trash but they are better tha n what they where
@@allentoyokawa9068 they are probably better then most Ford cars.
@@allentoyokawa9068 any automakers without recalls you can think of??? Did you think Lexus were shit trash when they had major recalls a decade ago with brakes not working properly that ended up killing several people? 😆 🤣 😂
Don't be butthurt Japan is losing out in electric vehicle market... 😆 🤣 😂
I think that Hyundai is awesome looking and I reckon that Kia really stands out, but not so much in red. The interior in both the Hyundai and especially the Kia are miles ahead of so many other electric cars. I absolutely hate the vertical tablet type screens, and the Kia having physical controls for climate control is a must
Personally I think the Hyundai looks like something a kid would have drawn back in the 90's or very early 2000 if asked what cars in the future would look like. The "digital" design he talked about in the video just looks dated to me, and in a few years it will just look even more out of touch with good design.
But then that might just be me showing my age. But I do think that a sign of good design is if something still looks relevant in a decade or two, and designs like the Hyundai tends to age badly.
But the inside is pretty nice looking, though I can only talk about what I saw. Physical controls will always be better than touch screens. It's all about the tactile feedback. You don't have to take your eyes off the road as you can feel the controls. Levers and sliders for things like climate controls are a good design that allows you to feel what the settings are. Again, any design that allows the driver to keep the eyes on the road is to be preferred.
Touch screens are good for navigation and possibly radio and phone use, but the problem is that the interface is changing depending on the module that's up front so you have to take your eyes off the road to see what it currently is showing. The buttons and controls also move depending on the active module and there is no way you can feel for them but you more or less have to watch that screen when manipulating the controls.
@@blahorgaslisk7763 Hyundai Ionic 5 is an reincarnation of 70s Hyundai Pony with modern touch. It's the retro look with modern tech...
I agree
as a zoomer I think the i5 looks the coolest. Second place going to the ev6. it's probably what the cyber truck should be
If ionic 5 is look like kid drawn in the 90's , how about tesla cybertruck...? Drawn by the babies...?
The fact that the film crew spent their whole day making this into a 43 minute video is incredible. You are much appreciated.

I've never watched a 44 minute car review before; only Matt of all the auto youtubers can be entertaining enough for me to last that long! This was a massive effort from everyone involved and it's much appreciated.
I skipped the useless banter to the last of the video to get the results. Skilled RUclipsr here.
@@captinbeyond I enjoyed the banter and skipping to the end is hardly a 'skill'.
@@sammyt3514 If someone is not interested in what the interior looks like, or the features that comes on it, then why bother. Most of those who clicked on here came to find out how far they actually go and not that it has Android/Apple car play or watching him circle the block for days on end.
@@captinbeyond I am interested in what the interiors look like, so not sure what you're harping on about.

@@sammyt3514 Thanks for giving me the right to move on. Sorry that my comments melted your snowflake wings
I own an EV6 and I'm glad to see that it doesn't lock up like a Tesla when it is out of battery. (ex. Doors locked, charging door locked, unable to push/move vehicle) Thanks for the info!
I'm also glad to see that there are other manufactures that don't lock up as well.
Not true cause when you fold down Tesla seats in back there’s something that opens teslas charging port
And you can put Tesla in towing mode which you can push the car
Why would the peripheral systems in _any_ EV lose function when the traction battery is depleted? Accessories and power monitoring should be run off the 12 volt lead-acid battery, right? And that shouldn't be drained by the motor at all.
@@BogeyTheBear Just making sure, but you do know they add manual latches and other "fail-safe" mechanisms, right? I own an EV, and they have them. Including Tesla.
Of course, unless you're being sarcastic, then......Haha! and Kudos to you! 🤣👍
Yeah, you can unlock doors manually. But what about the charging port? And, again, why would such locks be powered by the high-voltage driving battery and not the 12 volt accessory battery that every EV runs their infotainment and window motors on?
That Hyundai is selling in boatloads here in Norway where electric car sales is 80% of the market. Hyundai did a lot of things right here, getting Delta HF Integrale vibes from it personally...
what's the most popular car in norway in terms of price, range, and such ? wouldnt cold reduce the range terribly ? especially when running the heater and such
I like this type of range testing using the highway route, since electric cars get the worst efficiency in the highway, not in the usual town roads where they can use regen braking often and the motor not being stressed out as much
ruclips.net/video/FcxyuBGpCmw/видео.html
Carwow should upload this for the future.
Depending on if you have a gear box Audi or twin motors tuned for different speeds tesla
HVAC use is even more of a factor in eating range. Figure 20-30% range loss in cold weather.

kia and hyundai have had the biggest glow-ups of any car brands in the 21st century
Yea I got the newest Kia Ceed GT MY22 and noone knows its a kia until the see the badge 🤣
My wife was insisting on that we get a KIA hybrid for her. I was less than excited, but it turns out it's quite brilliant. I really, really enjoy driving it.
Wdym
but their ICE cars are not that reliable
@ Is that why they give a 7 year warranty?
Great video! I have run my 2019 Ioniq with a small 28 kwh battery out so I knew the feelings/emotions you were experiencing. There are methods to gain range such as eco mode and cutting the extra power eaters like heater, accessories and lights (daylight) so I can imagine 10 or more additional miles might be quite possible
Be interesting to test them again in a couple of years time see if their batteries have gone down much. Just about every rechargeable thing I've ever bought suffers from battery loss. Are cars any different? I doubt it.
Yep, the batteries will deplete over time. If you look for 1 gen Leafs or other 10+ yo evs on the used market they are sitting at around 50-80% battery capacity depending on how they were used.
@@spletest8977 if that's reflected in their value, fair enough. I'm not sure it is yet.
But petrol cars degrade with use too.
Hyundai and KIA really did an amazing job with their first true EV. I absolutely love the design of Ioniq 5 and the EV6 definitely growing on me. Definitely my dream ev
There was the kona before i have a 64kwh one brillant car
Kona and Ioniq were (are) efficiency Grandmasters..
I love Žilina i live nearby i see they factory make good cars
Out of all of these I prefer the look of the Hyundai, which is amazing because I never thought I'd ever prefer a Hyundai over a BMW, Audi or Skoda.
But there is a third car build on the same architecture as the Ioniq 5 and the EV6. The Genesis GV-60 and it is coming to Europe soon, hopefully.
I love this kind of test by Carwow. Wish they upload this in the future as well.

@@AlexBakker Hi fellow old subscriber.
It's a little bit too much Mat's centrical. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love Mat but with that many cars he should have some sidekicks :)
@@alunesh12345 no wonder you have 'shit' in your name. You talk a lot of it.
That was awesome and useful! Big appreciation for Matt and all the team.
Loved this video thanks! I’ve got an Ioniq 5 on order and I’m okay with the results you got. Think I may have added the heat pump as an option too so hopefully it’ll perform a bit like the Kia?!? Anyway, we chose the car because of our three leggy teenagers. Space in the back is a must for us and the Hyundai wins every time. Keep this great content coming!
The Kia also has a bigger battery than the Ioniq 5 currently. Ioniq 5 has 72kwh while the EV6 has a 77kwh pack.
Additionally I noticed that the Kia was in regen mode 2, whilst the ioniq was in mode 1 (less aggressive) according to the dashboard shots.
In Canada, the Ioniq gets a 77 kwh battery pack as well.
Regen doesn't matter on highway
@riba2233 it does tho. Depending on traffic, you often have to break when there is a slow down or someone cuts you off. A mile here and there regened, and it adds up to a handful.
@@Iamallwaysright1 yeah but that is not really "highway driving" if you stop so often, gets closer to city driving
I’m personally not a fan of Hyundai but I was having my car serviced and walked into all the dealerships there. I really have to give Hyundai credit. They really stepped up the game. Putting pressure on the luxury cars brands. I didn’t expect to see the luxury and quality of the cars. Hyundai really showed my how complacent the other big car brands are getting. They really stepped their game up. I don’t think I would jump ship to them just yet. But they definitely got me interested.
Both Hyundai and Kia have or had the old reputation of being crap but in the last decade they have really upped their game, They eclipsed everything no German or Japanesse by 2015 and now they are in the same league more or less. The Germans and Japanesse are too reliant on loyalty which is their weakness and it makes them complacent like you said.

Their EV technology is one of the best on the market. Especially if you choose to go electric, worth considering them. We've driven a Hyundai in arctic conditions for three winters and no matter how cold, it just works.
@@franki7 oh congratulations! Once I retire my Genesis coupe 2.0T i want the GV80 as my suv and the GV60 as my daily since I'm gonna be living in Toronto I don't need a gasoline car.
Great video, as always! Though you could improve it a little if you'd show a chart with all the current stats (mi/kwh, etc.) each time Matt asks around
Absolutely loved this video 😍 Super honest, objective and informative. I currently own a Kia Optima PHEV SW and I’ve really fallen a bit in love with the modern Kia brand. So much so that I might soon upgrade to an EV6 LR RWD Upgrade. What was the weather like during the test? Winter weather in Scandinavia tends to drastically reduce range, and different brands might handle this differently. Keep up these fantastic videos 😊👍
Shutout for the editor that had to put together this video with all those small clips. I imagine it was a pain to edit it :) Well done. Also, well done KIA and Hyundai. Who wouldve thought a couple years ago that those 2 companies will be the new big bois in the car world.
They aren't "the new big bois in the car world". Guess who didn't have one of their cars in this test? Yes, the number1 EV maker..still, Tesla!
@@Mr1Tanker Tesla are a tiny manufacturer compared to all of these, calm down
@@ericedge2929 Not as far as EV's go.... breath in through your nose, and out through your mouth. smh
I never thought i would enjoy a range test video this much. Keep it up.
The fact that the Skoda reserved enough power to maneuver to a charging station (I think) seems to deserve special mention yes? The rest appeared to strand their drivers
👎
1h of maneuvering seems a bit excessive tho xD
Ist would be nice, if you convert everything in metric units for the rest of the world. So km of range and kWh/100km. Just display the numbers with units in the video, when you talking about it

Great Britain test. I have always had BMW, Audi and Mercs. I now own a Kia EV6 GT line s, all wheel drive. It is a really fantastic premium feeling car and is great value for money. Well done Kia.
I have a questions hope you can help me. How fast is the charging once you reach 80%
Thank you for your spending time with this video… you and your team awesome 👍👍👍
Great video! The Kia and Hyundai should have been in Eco mode though. That disconnects the front motor from the drivetrain which greatly improves efficiency for long distance driving pretty noticeably in the AWD models. So that means the Kia and Hyundai both probably would have gone another 20 or so miles if they had used Eco Mode.
The bmw did seriously good for a non traditional EV, I would love to see how the iX and i4 compare.
Yup, that's a pretty impressive feat from bmw.
They are good judging from reviews. Especially the i4
@@TsLeng yeah, range looks good and it’s £10,000 cheaper than the BMW iX3.

@@solefreak2 why don’t you get like a Dacia then?
@@OnTheRailwayOfficial I would if they done an electric model with this kind of range!
@@solefreak2 Most of these cars are their first dedicated EV models. So they have to spent more on R&D, because of that they some how try to cover their cost. That’s why EVs are bit expensive.
Amazing endurance test . Full of useful informations. Thank you MAT.
Thanks another great video and love the real world range tests well done 👍
It's very interesting how close some of these came to their US rated range. Audi missed by 4 miles, Ford by 2 miles (assuming this was a 2021 before the software patch to allow more usable battery).
It's also interesting the mixture of measures of kilowatt, hours, miles.

@@GarethRules He probably meant the mix of Metric and Imperial units.
@@ringyring ah fair enough, that's just the way we do it over here and we all got used to it
Yeah the EPA does better range estimates
2021 has been a good year for Kia and Hyundai and in some ways both companies might even takeover the car industry
Not until they can make an engine that doesn't blow up every 50k miles.
People keep sucking Hyundai and Kia's dicks but they're just throwing money at cars here. They retool their production line every other year for their cars and never seen to get it quite good enough. They must be spending fuckloads of money and not be making much in return.

EV6 seems quite impressive. 91% of the achieved range is fantastic. It beat the Tesla model 3 LR in range (273 mi to 270 mi) if we compare last year test albeit weather conditions were different. It also looks like the buffer below 0% charge is better with this Kia.
Weather is very a significant factor.
@@kjelle5350 look at the hot weather one with the small evs some of them EXCEEDED rated range at 30C

With the 19" tires the Kia EV6 range would have been extended for about 25 miles. You made a good job 👍
easy now 😅
@@Maskinmester-DK You keep quiet.
Amazing how Hyundai, Kia and Skoda change this years, how they cars go some steps Up and can fight with the tradicional brands and with some "luxury" brands
Ye bro
Especially Korean brands have come a long way. 10 or 15 years I ago I would not have considered to buy one at all, but nowadays they do sell some very good value cars.
Skodas are a good choice if you want a cheaper alternative to "German" cars.
They definitely compete on price too ! Haha
Because it's the same underneath. All EV's are using basically the same electric motor and the same kind of battery pack. Every manufacturer sources these.
None of them make the parts themselves. Hard to get that wrong.
That's also what makes these EV's absolutely boring crap. It's all the same, and features get locked/unlocked based on how much you pay, even though they can all do the same thing.
Electric drivetrains are a great equaliser.
Followup idea: Do a city driving version of this. I would love to see how they do with a stop and go city environment or at least mixed conditions.
I think they would be doing the test for a couple of days.
Ev cars are great in town.
I only have an ebike right now but the winter temperatures have halved its range.
Cold weather range is the best method of testing imo.
Street drive isn’t too bad since it does Charged itself during braking.
@@Byu50 Yeah that's part of what I'm wondering about the street route. How much the braking regen will have an affect on the range.
This is so helpful! Looking for an EV and this research is invaluable!
I appreciate this test very much. I like the Kia EV6 the most and have ordered mine a while back.
Out of curiosity, what made you go for the EV6? There's so many decent choices in a similar price range these days.
@@Kevin-hp5fk I've seen both ioniq 5 and EV6 and imo the price/quality of these cars is the best right now (V2L, 800V, nice exteriors and interiors with good options, space,...). We ordered an ioniq 5 but for me EV6 is evenly nice
@@Kevin-hp5fk the EV6 has the RIMAC 800 Volt architecture with fast loading. EVs from VAG (Skoda, VW, Audi etc.) seemed to be less value for money. Lastly, the Kia E-Niro performed really well in all categories some years back. I hoped for the same with the EV6.
I’m surprised it wasn’t the BMW to go first, especially with Mat flooring it multiple times to hear the sound it makes 😄
Speed changes have very little effect on consumption with electric cars, unlike they do with gas ones. That's because most of the energy that's put in when accelerating is recovered when slowing down. Only the energy needed to maintain the selected speed counts fully.
Brilliant bit of video!! Well done.
Really enjoyed the video...learned a lot!
These videos are starting to be a nice tradition. Keep up the good work.
From that group I’d definitely go with the Kia EV6. It’s such a great option. And looks sweet!
Once again, very nice video 😊
Cheapest too!
Ioniq 5 👌
I would say is the worst of them. Ioniq 5 more spacious and comfortable, enyaq bigger trunk and Q4 more sportier and luxurious 👍
@@Jstars200 it does have some insane body roll though, because of not having adaptive suspension (the Hyundai)
Ev6 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I always liked the KIA Especially the GT which will have north of 500+HP with good range. And this test video almost sold me on it being the runner up against the cyber truck.
Brilliant idea for a vid, always thought why no one has done the same test before :).
Considering BMW a petrol powered platform and managed to do as good as the electric. It be interesting to see how a full electric platform from them. That’s if you are willing to pay the electric car uplift

Pure boomer mentality, bmw is falling behind. Now this is their lazy attempt to compete.
90% of claimed range on winter motorways is phenomenal really. Suggests they'd easily exceed claimed range in summer on a combined cycle.
No. Thats not winter. And question is. If you get stuck in a traffic jam for few houres in winter ,like - 10 degree or lower . You in big problems.
@@vasme973 sorry, that is winter. You can literally see deciduois trees with no leaves on them. And these cars car run their heaters for 48 hours. Stop drinking the anti EV cool aid.
@@TheAegisClaw it ain't winter till there's ice on my eyebrows.
@@vasme973 I'd argue this is a problem for both EV's and gas cars, especially since gas cars need their engines running the whole time, while the EV would only use secondary systems (heating, lights, ...).
This is winter btw, in most of the world -10°C is very rare, you'll need to be in the upper northern hemisphere (Canada, Scandinavia and Russia essentially, maybe some parts of upper US) to get these temps on a regular interval.
@@vasme973 EVs are most efficient at low speeds, meaning that EVs have more range than gas cars in a traffic jam. When you stop an EV, you are using no power to run the motor. When you stop a gas car, either the engine continues to idle (using gas) or shuts down (stop/start system) and has to start back up which is really bad for the engine.
Love my EV6, the heat pump technology really does work excellent and this was a great test to prove that. Thank you

A very interesting video Matt as I remembered watching the previous range test video where you finished up in the Tesla that you mentioned. I think I like the looks of the Kia the best but with my practical head on it'd be the Skoda I'd go for given the option.
Thanks Matt and whoever was involved in taking the time to do these in depth range tests, great job! electric cars are still way out of most people budget which is still very annoying 😒
I agree! Fantastic video. This is a fantastic review that is both fascinating and well-written. The only thing I'd like to know is how long it takes each car to come back to 100% after they've ran out. The Audi appears to be taking a conservative approach, with a lower threshold for supplying power to the motors. However, if I were looking for a car in this category, I would most likely choose between the Kia and the Skoda, as both are very-efficient and offer good value for money.
I absolutely love these types of videos!
I really like the styling, handling and ride quality of the Hyundai Ioniq 5 as it's interior design is more futuristic than all tested but I just traded my 2021 Hyundai Sonata N - Line yesterday for the 2022 Kona N until the electrics vehicle are mandatory and Hyundai releases the Ioniq 5 N with the longer range batteries already in work!

They showed percentage achieved of claimed range.
A big THANK YOU to everyone involved in the making of this amazing video - all drivers but also the people behind the scene!
Based on the prices quoted in the video and the results of the test I compared the range per 1 pound to see which car gives you the "cheapest" range. So here are the results:
UK Price per mile (km)
Kia EV6 - 172.16 GBP/mi (106.98 GBP/km)
Enyaq iV - 174.24 GBP/mi (108.27 GBP/km)
Mustang Mach-e - 179.82 GBP/mi (111.74 GBP/km)
Ioniq 5 - 189.87 GBP/mi (117.98 GBP/km)
BMW iX3 - 237.35 GBP/mi (147.49 GBP/km)
Audi Q4 e-tron - 269.23 GBP/mi (167.29 GBP/km)
This is why the single motor variants are the best bang for your buck- longer range, cheaper prices!
Ioniq 5 will be produced with a 77.4kw battery capacity from this year. The mileage will be almost the same as the EV6.
This was one of the best car video I’ve seen.
Great test! I'd also like to see a breakdown on when each car reached 0%, and when each car went into turtle/limited mode (if different than 0%). It'd let folks get an idea of how much extra capacity each car has.
Love this series, can't wait for more EV's to be tested!
This was quite informative thanks Matt , now heres a tester for you? how about seeing if you can do this very same test? but towing a 4 berth caravan which standard vehicles this size can do without too much strain on them!
Awesome video as usual!
Great stuff from Carwow. Useful real world testing for these 'affordable' mid-sized crossovers
'Affordable' if your last name is Musk or Buffet.
I wish they would test one of the MG EVs as they are more to my price range.
great test, a table with all the stats would have been awesome. its hard to compare all those stats without it.
12:32 - pure Mat Watson moment, hilarious! this is why I watch your videos :)
I would love an in Detail Video about the EV6. Really planning on getting that one next year. And I already fell in love with it. I've never driven anything not german and finally feel like Korea is catching up on us. Might even be beating us in EVs
We need AVERAGE SPEED as well for these tests
Exactly, doubt many people changing from petrol / diesel cars for these would be sitting at 55mph on the motorway as they seemed to in this video
Loved this shootout!!! The 1969 Mustang Mach 1 looked at that Mach E and said, "wait, is than an SUV?" Great video!
Big respect for Kia and Hyundai...
Love the format!
Could you maybe do the same thing with small cars like the Fiat 500e in the future?
Thanks for doing this again! Love seeing what the real world range of these vehicles actually are.
We need good competition. The fact that Hyundai and Kia are able to hold their own in this space is good for us consumers. It puts these other big manufacturers on their toes and find ways to keep prices reasonable.
Nice to see this kind of video. Good luck to you.
Pure touchscreen controls: "I hate not having a physical volume knob."
Screen with volume knob: "This volume knob spoils the screen"
Just can't win can they?!
He just doesn't want big knobs on his screen...
Perhaps one day the technology will exist to place physical volume controls someplace other than the screen.
Noticed that Kia, Niro in the previous test and the EV6 here, reached a creditable 90% of claimed range. This ‘real world’ test blows right through manufacturers claims and provides honest range and efficiency figures.
Unless im wrong....peoples driving habits can vary greatly from drive it like you stole it...to out for a slow Sunday drive....surely that would affect the battery life. Therefore...while these comparisons dont mean alot to me. For all you gearheads...this reminds me of the Top Gear episode where they ran a Toyota Prius and a BMW M3 (e92 v8 engine) to see which one got the best fuel economy. Spoiler alert. While the Prius was being thrashed around the track, the M3 was leisurely strolling behind the Prius to keep up. While i dont remember the exact figures i wanna say the M3 averaged around 30mpg and the Prius was 18mpg 🤣 its worth a watch!
@@JK-js2td Sure, but this is literally a real-world scenario that most people are concerned about: highway/long distance drives. This is 90% of people’s driving habits for the highway, just keep pace with traffic and go as long as you can.
I just finished a 44 min car review video... and I don't even have a license yet! hahaha it was very interesting! Thank you for the nice review!
Great review as always..! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍
This is a great test! Booked a test drive of the Skoda recently so this is a good guide for future. Shame you missed the iD3 4 out. Would have been good to see more of the VAG line up against each other.
@@kurtsveistrup3403 been driving my ID3 Pro Tech for about 5 months, no serious issues, yet
I would get a new phone :-)
The same journey in a petrol BMW x3 would cost around £45. All those EVs have (very) hot-hatch performance, some are approaching supercar acceleration!!.
Charge via home solar panels for free fuel and what's not to love?
10 years ago the Nissan Leaf did 85miles.
Now we have genuine 250-300 mile ranges and rapid charge.
In 5 years we'll have genuine 500 mile range. The improvement is exponential as battery technology improves.
God knows how good EVs will be in another 10 years.
Well tech improved with anything over time. Problem they need to solve is what to do with the batteries once they pass their expiration date. As of right now there's no real recycling program and it's being thrown into the garbage. They need to find a way for cars to be able to be on the road for more than 10 years and be accessible to those with lower income. 2030 or 2035 when ev only sales take place, I hope they will have solved this problem or else there will be a ton of waste
Merc eqa has a massive range. Well over 400. And yes charging is cheap but factor in a battery replacement at some point. Early Teslas are needing these now and the cost is more than the car is worth, shade over 20k!
Might still be close finacially but I haven't looked at it. If it works out just a tac more pence per mile, probably still worth it as fuel and taxes are only ever going to go up.
@@thebrowns5337 That's the one thing that puts me off, is the replacement battery cost. For someone who has bought old used cars (diesel and petrol), this option isn't really viable with battery powered cars as they will need the replacement or you drive with a reduced range. I mean £20k to replace batteries, how much would it cost to replace an engine in an ICE car?
Still have many doubts about winter conditions though. Right now it's -14 degrees of celsius outside. Hyundai and Kia owners are complaining that their new electric cars (these in the test) are not charging properly, they are charing very very slowly and the manufacturers have confirmed this.
Untill the issues with cold conditions have been solved, these "cars" are still toys and not real cars usable for people that need a car for their job for example. Untill then, diesel BMW continues to be the way to go for me.
@@Manakuski Why don't you use a Uranium 235 powered reactor in the car? With a decay rate of 700 million years, I'd say you should be all set.
Love these comparisons! Did miss the Model Y for the ultimate comparison
Well done Matt. I knew you would win!
Love these videos! Keep them coming!
ruclips.net/video/FcxyuBGpCmw/видео.html iii
Keep those coming, Carwow.
Damn, that Hyundai has such a beautiful design, never thought I would it over the cars on this list
Nice video I remember the first one, next time can you please add how long it takes to fully charge each car from 0% to the stats I think that would be helpful hope I’m not asking for too much
Wel done. A super test
