Negatives – List 3 or more things that you really don’t like about this car?

  • No frunk
  • Digital screens could be bigger
  • Glovebox is small.

 

Surprise us! Tell us something surprising about this car?
The Travel Assist option is brilliant, as a first time user of driving aids, it’s amazing to have a car that practically drives itself on the motorway.

 

What car are you interested in next and why?
Kia Ev6 to replace a BMW 335d. The BMW used to be our main car but now we see it as expensive, noisy and bad for the environment.

 

What home charging unit do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?
ChargedEV Smart PRO – yes I would recommend it. It gives us a lot of flexibility to charge when it’s best for the environment and our wallet (Octopus Go Faster ).

 

What home electricity supplier & tariff do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?
Octopus Go Faster – 5 hours at 5.5p per kWh overnight.

 

What public charging networks do you use? Would you recommend them to others and why?
We’ve used IONITY, Instavolt and Gridserve. BP Polar seems a bit rubbish these days.

Who do you insure your EV with? Would you recommend them to others and why?
We went with the best quote, this year is LV. We have no brand loyalty, the best value is the policy we will choose.
