You’re a smart little SUV. The e-2008 has a range of only 328km, its single motor offers just 100kW/260Nm, has 100kW maximum charging, and the rear seat and boot space are sized better for a retired couple than our family of four. Day 3 – Home charging 2024 Peugeot e-2008 GT. Most competition is stronger on paper.

Toyota’s debut EV is firmly middle-of-the-road in terms of price, size, range, performance, charge speed and features. A better-equipped all-wheel-drive’s $74,900 plus charges, so you’re looking at around $70,000 and $79,000 respectively to drive-away. Perhaps predictably, the BZ4X is pragmatism personified.

Whether you’re buying a Tesla Model Y , Hyundai Ioniq 5 , Kia EV6 or MG ZS EV , one of the first questions most people have regards the length of the driving range. So just how far can you travel between charges? Model 3 Rear-Wheel Drive and Performance versions don’t go as far, but they’re still impressive.

It’s mind-blowing, if not quite in the re-wire brain territory of the Porsche Taycan Turbo S. If you want to keep the tyre mobility kit and power cable bags in the boot, this also eats into space. Very cool and ideal to charge phones, your laptop, coffee machine, widescreen TV or even bar fridge. That’s daft acceleration.

The $6000 Plus pack brings a panoramic sunroof, full power operation of the front seats, heated rear seats and wireless phone charging. Dual digital displays also dominate the dash, while there’s smart key entry, navigation and wireless phone charging. From there, it’s a step up to the Korean contenders, starting with the EV6.

There are also aftermarket companies (such as EV Stealth Solutions) working on a tow kit for the Model Y. The speakers in the corners of the front windows and high up on the windscreen A-pillars work a Model Y … they’re not functional in a Model 3 Rear-Wheel Drive. AC charging : 11kW, Type 2 plug. 0-100km/h : 6.1

The charge port door also electrically rises with a gentle tap, while the GV60 can self-park using the smartkey. There’s a household socket under the rear seats (I plugged the Nespresso machine in here), and another on the charge cable, ideal for things like an electric bike. All neat tricks to show off to friends and family.

A sweetener from the get-go are six years of free public charging (Chargefox), six years scheduled servicing and six years roadside assist. Standard kit is generous. For the same money the wagon with Launch Edition kit looks the pick. What is charging like for the Audi Q8 55 e-tron? inch infotainment screen, 12.3-inch

Boon for buyers of the new RWD Long Range is its larger battery can charge up to 205kW rather than the entry-level’s 135kW. For DC charging, that sees a 10-80% boost drop from 34 minutes to 28 minutes. Cameras and police radars, meanwhile, only care about the speed you’re clocked at. seconds to 6.2-seconds

Arguably, that’s the price of premium.

Finally, in a first-of-its-kind partnership in the United States, Mitsubishi announced a strategic alliance with Oregon to develop an electric car charging infrastructure in the state. The big problems now is how to create a battery that can charge rapidly and infrastructure to charge them. If you charge with solar, is way less.

The four-door sedan will deliver 40 miles on a charge; a small gasoline engine will recharge the battery as it approaches depletion, extending its range by as much as 200 miles. Posted by: canderson | Apr 13, 2009 5:02:50 PM The EV1 gave drivers 80 miles on a charge. The car is expected to cost around $40,000. Interesting in any case.
