Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I quite like the look of the EV2 although I don't like the EV3 as much which looks very similar. The boxiness gives it lots of internal room.

I think it's a 61kWh battery giving a range of about 275.

Maybe my wishes may come true - Kia EV2

Perhaps a cautionary tale ! As I have mentioned elsewhere I spent a few days staying at Heythrop Park for a new year getaway. They have dozens of Podpoint 7kW chargers so very handy for topping up for pootling around and the journey home. The charge for these is 57p/kWh, not too bad. However as...

Same sprinkling here in West Yorkshire.

The only thing that amazes me about that story is that you managed to get 60 miles out of your way before noticing and that you thought you'd stop at Leicester East and ask for directions ! Did I read that right ? Do you not have Satnav or a map in the car ?

It's not 2k though is it if buying new as the option to buy the new standard has replaced the old standard at reduced price and spec, the next option up is 7k dearer.

Isn't that a bit dangerous putting a can in the microwave ? ;)

Mine was looking nice too. Oops, my bad that was where we were staying earlier this week not mine. 😂

The base model used to be 39,990 (avoiding the luxury tax) now 5,000 dearer ! Longer range and improved but still up bit of a hike, making the Standard only just less than the original.

I would love a heat pump but we are in a modern build that came with a combi boiler and absolutely nowhere to put a hot water tank.

I too remember 62/63, the snow was two thirds up our front door in Brighton. Also remember was it 66/67 when it was similar. Same with the schools walk to school, none of this shutting them down because it's too difficult/dangerous to get to when there's an inch (2.5cm) of snow trying to cover...

I have found that planning is not really required unless you want to take advantage of cheaper prices say at Tesla open to all chargers or specific chargers if you have a subscription. I agree there are hot spots amongst which are some mentioned by @Rolfe Tebay in particular. However if you can...

Best I achieved with my PFL5 was 93kWh at 34%, and sustained at over 70. It was a nice summer day though with temperature 25 degrees. It was full enough before I had time to get my coffee. :D
