From AutoEV. We’ve always loved the Ĺ koda Enyaq. A gloriously practical, well-built, decent to drive, spacious family EV. Yet with the arrival of the new, less expensive, but only slightly smaller Elroq, you’d be forgiven for thinking what is the point of buying the bigger car now? Well, to make sure that you do continue…
From AutoEV. The new Kia EV3 is a superb car. In fact, we named it our Best Compact Family EV of 2024 in our recent awards. But were we blinded by the expensive range-topping model full of extras and luxury trimmings? In other words, is the basic Air trim, the least expensive of the range,…
From AutoEV. Join us as we crown the winners, and the losers, of the EV world in the AutoEV Awards 2024. This is our fourth year of these awards and as always, all the cars we tested over the past 12 months have come under close scrutiny to be in with a chance of winning…
From AutoEV. The new Renault 5 has been a long time coming. Since we first poured over the concept, we have been itching to get behind the wheel. But if you look at the figures, it’s only delivering a fairly average set of stats. So why I this car so important, and why do we…
From AutoEV. So Bryan has a new car that has replaced his previous BMW iX2, itself a controversial choice. How will this one fair? In this introduction video (which is very late!) he introduces us to it and reflects on his first impressions from when he first reviewed it and admits that just maybe, he…
From AutoEV. We’ve always felt a little bit sorry for Vauxhall. They always seem to try their hardest, but ultimately fail to deliver the it comes to the crunch. Average battery sizes, average styling, average to drive, yet priced way above average. So what chance does their new SUV flagship, the Grandland have? On another…
From AutoEV. With all the attention focussed towards the large EV9 and the new EV3, you’d have been forgiven if you had thought Kia had forgotten about the car that started the change of image for them, the sensational EV6. So its had a little update with new styling, bigger battery and revised charging times.…
From AutoEV. We saw the new Ĺ koda Elroq back in the summer, and even managed a quick drive in a prototype car. But since then we have driven the Kia EV3 and MINI Aceman as well as having a good poke around the new Renault 4. So can the Czech firm’s more sensible approach to…
From AutoEV. We love the Cupra brand, and we were genuinely excited when we were invited to drive the new Born a few years back. And whilst we did like it, we failed to fall in love with it. It was a good car, just not the great one we felt it needed to be…
From AutoEV. Porsche have launched another electric car, but this time it is intended to replace (eventually) an existing model, unlike the Taycan which was a new car altogether. But replacing their second best-selling car with a fully electric SUV is bold move, and one where Porsche are, wisely, taking no risks. The Macan is…
From AutoEV. Another new entrant into the UK’s new car market is Skywell, and their first offering seems to be what everyone is after, a family-sized, all-electric SUV. But does the new BE11 really offer something special to make you choose this over a Renault, Kia or Volkswagen? As always, the way to find out…
From AutoEV. Finally we get one of the most anticipated electric cars we have been waiting for here in the UK – the Dacia Spring. Not only because of its low price, but also because this is car that we think could turn a lot of people onto electric mobility as it’s just a normal,…
From AutoEV. The MINI brand has been busy – they have effectively launched an entirely new range of cars over the past year or so, with the small Cooper hatchback and large Countryman SUV – well now we have this, the one in the middle; the new MINI Aceman. It’s an electric only crossover that…
From AutoEV. There are only a handful of brands that harvest the passion from their owners like Alfa Romeo do. Time and time again, the company has launched seductive models, luring the next Alfisti into the showrooms, yet ultimately only to disappoint them. Cars, some good, others not so, have come and gone but the…
From AutoEV. Have we gone mad??? Are we really doing twin test between the new MG Cyberster and the Porsche Boxster? EV versus icon? Well if anyone can do sports cars, it has to be said, these two manufacturers certainly have quit the repertoire between them. But can the new power generation win over the…
From AutoEV. Kia’s new EV3 is possibly their most important new model yet. Whilst the stylish EV6 enthralled us with its sleek looks and the large EV9 gave us bold practicality, the smallest EV3 has to be the big seller. We knew it looked good, had lots of space on offer and offered a potentially…
From AutoEV. Bryan’s time with his BMW iX2 has now come to en end. It’s fair to say that this was a controversial replacement for his previous Renault Megane E-Tech (which he loved), so how has the past 6 months and 3,500 miles been with the car? In his final report on life with the…
From AutoEV. Last year, Bryan drove his long term Renault Megane E-Tech from the south of Scotland to the south of England to show how easy it was to do a trip like that in an electric car using the public charging network. In this video, he recreates the trip in his BMW iX2 just…
From AutoEV. Tired of big, heavy, inefficient, SUVs? Want something a little bit smaller with a bit of character, but still need loads of space? Say hello to the Inster from Hyundai, a small, all electric, A-segment city car with the interior from the Tardis. Its stylish, with incredible packaging and well equipped, and its…
From AutoEV. It seems hardly a week goes past without another new electric car from China entering the UK market – and here is another, the Omoda E5. Its a C-sector crossover designed to compete with cars such a step Nissan Qashqai, Renault Scenic and the like, but, its maker claims, with the price tag…
From AutoEV. What follows the 5? The 4 of course! After just offering the Zoe for 10 years, Renault have properly stepped up a gear when it comes to their new range of electric cars. After the brilliant Megane hatchback, there was the family orientated Scenic, another brilliant offering. Then they turned the clock back…
From AutoEV. Whenever we see a concept car, a lot of what we are told is taken with a pinch of salt. Much of what is in the design or engineering never makes production and the final showroom car is a much watered-down version. But with the Alpine brand, we have more confidence that what…
From AutoEV. Crossovers, SUVs and big heavy electric cars in general. Hardly a day goes by when we are seeing another large, inefficient, heavy EV being launched. But Renault have starting downsizing. First the new 5, the soon to be launched Renault 4 and now they have given us a glimpse of their next retro-futuristic…
