It’s a huge challenge to create a performance EV to tug at the heart strings of enthusiast drivers, but through incredible tech and engineering Hyundai’s cracked it. A smart cooling system, advanced battery thermal management and an ‘Endurance’ mode – where peak performance is slightly pegged – will extend track time.

A majority of the EVcentral writing staff acknowledged the compact Chinese battery electric vehicle for one positive reason or another. And in case you’re wondering what BYD stands for, it’s Build Your Dreams, something spelled out on the back of the Atto 3. The BYD Atto 3 comes as two models; Standard and Extended range.

There are two swappable batteries within the frame, which will allow the e-bike to traverse “hundreds of kilometers.”. NIU has a smartphone app that will integrate with the BQi, allowing it to access additional smart security and tech features. With NIU’s own fast charger, the electric motorcycle charges up in under four hours.

Okay, 97 per cent battery life and 387km range. It’s mind-blowing, if not quite in the re-wire brain territory of the Porsche Taycan Turbo S. Very cool and ideal to charge phones, your laptop, coffee machine, widescreen TV or even bar fridge. Importantly, I’m back to 100% charge and 376km range. Looks expensive.

None of this quartet is cheap, but all are towards the value end of the EV market. One oversight is the warranty, which is an undernourished four years or 80,000km (double that for the high voltage battery). Our car also had a bigger battery, which adds $5000. Sure, there are cheaper options. Plus it had two option packs.

As a motoring writer, this is the question we’re most asked after what’s the best you’ve driven. Beyond that, it was the Seres 3’s poor drive experience, unresolved technology features, its failure to accept DC charge without explanation and bunny hop-inducing regeneration that has landed it top on my Wall of Shame.

Range is 470km (WLTP) thanks to its 77.4kW battery. 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.

And in a true smart grid, electric cars will not only be able to draw on electricity to run their motors, they will also be able to do the reverse: send electricity stored in their batteries back into the grid when it is needed. We will own the battery. We will always own the batteries,&# said Mr. Thesen.

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. So imagine a million electric cars on US roads which all need to change these batteries in say 2015. In the U.S. In the U.S.

This range-topping Kia EV9 GT-Line’s RRP is $121,000, then adds quite ridiculous $18,000 (in Queensland) on-road charges, pushing the bill to $139,000 drive-away. A mid-spec EV9 Earth is around $120,000 in the traffic, while the entry-level Air is a comparatively cheap $107,000. The sooner this tech gets sidelined the better.
