Electric Cars in particular are gaining fame because of their rechargeable engine that is powered by batteries as opposed to the traditional gas engine. It is a simply connection with in the plug-in electronic module and an external speaker system. THOR EV also comes with an easy plug-in connection just like all of their products.

It also gets the same 64.8kWh battery but has a lower WLTP range of just 395km.

With two Electric cars, at the time a Nissan Lean and Mitsubishi Outlander, we use a considerable amount of electricity but not much petrol, so already we were a reasonable way down the less CO2 road. For example the LEAF has a 24 KWh battery pack, and a full pack is good for around 100 miles. Battery Pack: PylonTech Battery Storage

Its natural EV rivals are the GWM Ora and MG4 , but the Dolphin also competes with many petrol-powered hatchbacks. That’s important because it makes it a viable well-specified alternative to petrol-powered hatchbacks such as the Toyota Corolla, Mazda3, Kia Cerato and Hyundai i30. That’s the car we’ve tested here.

It’s also a plug-in twist on the hottest thing in car customization: “ restomods ,” which update classics with modern power trains, suspensions, and creature comforts, all hidden under their vintage skins. A port mounted on a rear fender connects a standard CCS ( Combined Charging System ) plug to an onboard 7-kW charger.

And if you are spending more than 10 lakhs on a petrol or diesel car, you need to get your head examined or read up on EV's.

Both FWD and AWD look near identical, and share a 71.4kWh battery. This again keeps the drive petrol-like ‘normal’ but it’s a trick missed not coming to a complete stop when off the throttle. Our FWD offers 150kW and 266Nm, 0-100km/h in 7.5 It’s all very ‘mid,’ as the Americans would say.

It’s also the first battery electric model from the French brand in Australia, with three more EVs due before the end of 2024, including the larger e-Expert medium van. But the price is high, the equipment content is lower than the cheaper petrol Partner range and load carrying also takes a hit. Petrol models are rated up to 1037kg.

Unlike the recently launched Genesis GV60 – which is built on a bespoke EV architecture – the GV70 Electrified takes the familiar underpinnings of a GV70 running on petrol or diesel and adapts them to EV life. Batteries reduce the boot capacity slightly, but the GV70 Electrified is still a practical machine.

I’d collected the car with full battery and 340km range showing: a confidence-inspiring 12km over quoted WLTP figure. As this e-2008 is an EV adapted to the platform of an ICE vehicle (the petrol 2008 SUV), packaging isn’t as smart as a dedicated EV platform’s. I begin with 39% battery life and 114km range.

Whereas the original Niro was available as a regular hybrid , a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and a battery electric vehicle (EV), the new model does without the PHEV option. But whereas the EV6 is based on a dedicated EV architecture, the Niro relies on an ICE platform to allow for the petrol engine for the hybrid model.

EV Central’s BMW iX1 review: It’s drifting into ancient history now but BMW was a real battery electric vehicle trendsetter when it launched the i3 back in 2013. A spin-off from the petrol-powered X1, the newly arrived iX1 compact SUV is undoubtedly proof of that. There is no frunk up-front. Both are on the local ADR cycle.

As the Model 3 has done, the Model Y is also poised to tempt buyers from traditional petrol- and diesel-powered SUVs. There’s only four years and 80,000km of coverage, although the high voltage battery is covered by a separate eight-year, 160,000km warranty that guarantees at least 70 percent of the original capacity.

Okay, 97 per cent battery life and 387km range. If you want to keep the tyre mobility kit and power cable bags in the boot, this also eats into space. That said, I stand by my belief I’d be happier with a comfier, rangier EV6 Air and then buy a fun petrol toy with the money saved. Theatrical inside too. Looks expensive.

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. Taller folk may find their thighs a tad higher than the may prefer, a result of the battery built into the floor. Plus it had two option packs.

In the Aluminum the most challenging part is going to be the battery cover, which is going to have fins.

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.

Anyway, the GT-Line has dual motors, all-wheel-drive, 283kW/700Nm and 505km range (WLTP) from its lardy 99.8kWh battery. The GT-Line’s 505km range thanks to the huge battery is a win – the Air manages only 443km. You could buy an EV9 Air, then something like a petrol Kia Cerato hatch as a second car with the money saved.

Options are very limited for super-breeders needing more than five seats – although the Kia EV9 due late in 2023 will provide a tantalising option – but a huge advantage of going EV (if built on an electric vehicle-only platform) is roomier and smarter interior packaging compared to petrol and diesel vehicles.

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. Considering how much GM plugs we do 80% of our driving in the city, those highway miles dont get much use. The car is expected to cost around $40,000.
