Electric SUV comparison and practicality test v ICE Cars! Quick review and box test of each.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 чер 2024
- Hi everyone. We have a few family friendly SUV style electric cars / EV's in the warehouse plus a couple of popular ICE cars to compare load space. I run through a very quick pro's and cons of each, what to expect for real-world range and how many Ikea packing boxes each one can hold.
Included in the line up;
Audi Etron 50 or 55 incl sportback
Jaguar iPace
Tesla Model Y Standard / Long Range
MG ZS
Hyundai Ioniq 5 - this is the Namsan Edition. I had a p45 myself before
Kia E-Niro (sorry no EV6 available today but we have tested that before)
Tesla Model X 6 seater (5 and 7 seaters also available but it's the 6 seaters where the seats do not fold - is that an issue?)
Sorry no Ford Mustang, VW ID.4 or ID.5 or other cars you can think of but this is what we had on the day and maybe we've tested one of those before in another video.
As we also have a Mercedes GLC and a BMW X5 in the showroom we can show you how they compare too incase you have one of those now and thinking of going electric.
Thanks for watching

Scary a Polestar 2 I took out for a few hours myself fully loaded 22 plate and I know a new gen dropped this year but it was priced at £53k. This Car with 3k miles on it now is £29k 😮 Thats a lot of Car for the money.
Spot on with the model Y description and the slight negatives were spot on too, just a brilliant and engaging car that I always enjoy driving
Many thanks for the video. As a kid, I used to get a car in a box. Now. I watch to see how many boxes you get in a car. 😊
😂
I really like the iPace. If I had the spare cash I'd upgrade from our ID.3 tomorrow.
For the sake of those of us with kids, could we have a box test with the rear seats in place? Ok to slide the back seats forward on cars that can - e.g. Ioniq 5. Apart from that lack, a helpful and informative comparison, thank you. It's interesting to see the driving reviews, but this sort of practical comparison is also vital.
Great video as always ❤
A very helpful video for new buyers. I have a Volvo XC40 recharge twin (and Tesla Model 3 LR with acceleration boost) which is very well equipped, but noticeably a smaller vehicle. I really wanted a Model Y, but my wife wanted a narrower car living in the countryside with narrow roads. Ironically she finds the Model 3 much easier to drive, shame we didn't get the Y.
Great video Richard
Great video, I have a Kia E Niro and will be changing in a few months when my lease is up. Looking at Tesla Model 3 Highland, so looking forward to seeing information on that!
The box test is super handy for those that need a lot of space. Thanks.
I will be looking later this month for a budget ev again my leaf battery didn’t like the cold weather so financially had to return to petrol for a few months. Liking the cheaper mg on your website. Nice. Great vlog. Very interesting comparison. Best wishes.
EV's are not for me.However I appreciate your honest,neutral thoughts on them.Thank you.
Is this another Gince edited video by any chance lol 👍,another Great episode by RSEV 👍😉💪
Legendary X5
My sister bought a Fiat 500 EV in 2022 for £32k i have just bought the same brand new 500 for £24k a massive saving. Happy days.
Would be great to have a IX50 in the line up too, have you ever reviewed one?
It is funny to notice the comment: Tesla Model X has so much room you don't need all of it. In the UK that might be true. In the USA it is considered a jellybean shaped coupefied car with compromised space management, inability to use a luggage rack on the roof due to gullwing doors in the rear.
The full sized 3 rows SUV are preferred instead. So far only Kia EV9 and Rivian R1S can provide a better space inside but not the efficiency of Model X. The upcoming Lucid Gravity will beat all of them in both efficiency and space inside.
As a person with a 3 and 5 year old, I can confirm the e-niro is fine day to day, but no good for a week away in the UK with all the kids gear
Hi, can you show, how many boxes you can get in a, tesla model 3 with the back seats down. Thanks.
Ioniq 5 is awesome
Box test actually starts at 09:47
Yeah, it seems more like an inventory presentation video
What EV would you recommend for an owner of a couple of large dogs? Great video btw
Model y then remove the parcel shelf
Any views on the EV6 ?
How many boxes in the cayenne?
How is the reliability of the iPace?
What about towing for caravans, horse boxes, and car trailers all things that are not a problem for an x5, Range Rover sport, Kia sorento etc. 500 mile range, towing 350 to 400 mile range. Easy to refuel with trailers attached. What’s the ground clearance and torque when towing on to campsites, and field car parks.
Also which cars have roof rails and can accommodate roof bars?
If you need to tow a lot and often then don’t get an EV, simples.
@@mamba101 There are 1.1 million caravans in the uk more than BEVs an industry that employs 130,000 people. BEVs will decimate this uk industry.
Some of us use are SUVs for practical purposes it’s not all about virtue signalling single occupancy company cars. If we are going to have to use BEVs then some of us will need to tow. Wales for me is 220 miles with a caravan , south of france 800 miles one overnight stop, then there’s my MX weekends all done easily with a diesel SUV. The future isn’t looking all that fun. Still we can always have weekends at home.
@@tobycolin6271so you can drive 800 miles with stopping for a pee, or even a rest
I drive a Tesla, it charges in the time I have gone for a pee, if I need a rest too I have to move the car so I don't get idle fees.
Model Y got its right headlight stuck on? (Just to note mine had its left headlight stuck on and was a symptom of some pretty serious electrical problems!)
Did it get covered under warranty?
Yep - all covered, thought it had to go in twice (so far) and was a bit of a faff as it became undrivable so needed to be recovered.
Do you get 250-300 mi on ZS EV? 😮
Model X 😋
Edinburgh to London.. that's Down Hill! 🤣
Just a few prices of similar cars in Ireland 2021 Kia e-Niro 27900 miles €37000 , Jaguar I-Pace Hse 90 KWh 2021 28129 M €49950, Tesla Model S 75 2017 49142 M €33888, Tesla Model X 100d 63689m €59890, Tesla Model X 100d 25886m €100000, Tesla Model S LR 72700m €46900, Hyundai Ioniq 5 Executive Plus €37950
Good video as usual. I bet you don’t clean your own car. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What about the Ford Mustang?
he didn't have one in stock !
Hi m8 thinking of getting an EV to use as a taxi what’s the highest mileage EV you have come across cheers
I work for Tesla and regularly see cars with 200,000 plus on them 👍
@@peedeegtaye but out of curiosity how many will have had a battery or motor change?
Most likely none
@@Fruitcake77 the absolute vast majority of them are on original batteries. I’d say over 98%. As an extra point, degradation is usually between 5-10% on that sort of mileage, which is extremely good! 👍
@@peedeegt good to know! Looking at either a M3 or Y for next vehicle
Cheers mate
If only we had more Estate EVs instead of nearly all SUVs as they would be great for this. At least the Jag and while not here the EV6 look less like a typical SUV.
They are coming, at least from some car makers.....
@Brian-om2hh not enough though I just hate the SUV obsession. The MG5 is pretty much the only one I believe currently unless you are very wealthy and can afford the Cross Turismo
It is because the manufacturer can add 5k to the price just adding the SUV name. So they make these like me pointless design car.
@tomooo2637 yep 100% and not really any bigger on the inside than the hatch versions and often not good off road anyway and always worse on efficiency as well as harder to maneuver in towns
@@recklessrogue9027Real safety data shows : they are more likely to roll over - resulting in higher death rates for SUV. Also they all (except T-MY) fail the crash avoidance test meaning they are more likely to have an accident. Finally, the higher frontal area means they are more likely to cause catastrophic injury to pedestrians and cyclists.
MG are good I agree
Petrol Ped @ 0:47
I think Bjorn Nyland calls the Audi the FAT Etron. Big, heavy, mediocre performance and lowish range. I think they're an OK BEV [way better than ICE of course], but I do wish these legacy makers would lose their fake grilles. Drives me nuts - its a symbol of the past. Lose it.
On the iPace, I still scratch my head as to why it didn't/doesn't sell that well. There's no reliability issue with this one - it's a BEV.
The MG ZS EV is great value, as is the Robert [de Niro]. When I sit in a Model X it's like being in a room with some comfortable chairs and entertainment. Fabulous car, and actually, I don't like SUVs as a rule.
The fact you glossed over the X5 was second is scandalous and I'm a 2 ev household
Didn't the X5 have the most space
Hello guys
Wheel arch gap on electric cars is excessive and on that Audi it’s obscene 😂
You clearly missed the bit about air suspension then
He has the car in its highest setting……you’d know that if you listened to what he was saying 🙄
All ugly, except X and etron.
