At the current stage of EV development, electric cars are usually used for city commuting. With this in mind, some manufacturers decided to shrink their vehicles to bare minimum and wrap them in the smallest bodies possible. Would you like to own a vehicle like that to go grocery shopping or travel within the city?
i can only afford one vehicle so i need it to do everything, as a photographer i travel around the area a lot so i need a minimum or 400 mile range and off road capabilities. i dont care what it looks like or what type of fuel it takes, i just want it to work
@@automotiveterritory ... but you will never hear that classic engine sound. Nice idea to get the tools back from Brazil and Mexico and reinstall them in Germany again.
Ora just got European patent for punk cat and ballet cat which may quench your beetle desire as VW won't make a retro beetle the same way the new buzz is sadly not retro either. Such a shame.
I wish these smaller, electric cars were more popular where I live so they'd be easier to find one to buy. I live in Texas, with so many huge trucks. Smaller vehicles are more practical for everyday use, like running to the store or visiting a friend. Because I am 4'10 (1.47m) , they are also more comfortable for me to drive than a large vehicle. When I first had my eye on electric cars they were priced around $70,000 or more. It's so nice to see there are more affordable options. With so many choices, I had to re-watch the video. For my needs I liked both the Microlino and E-Go Life.
Kasey Berube while you’re waiting for Automotive Territory’s video, I came out with a video about electric cars not sold in America. It’s on my channel if you’d like to check it out! Automotive Territory, I can’t wait to see your video! Great content!
You should refrain from buying a y major items from China .. They are not an ally of the US and are threatening to financial attack the US. Don't give your American money to China. Think before you spend. Unless you want China the run the American country.
I ❤love the Der e-Kafer! My first car was a ‘63 convertible VW Bug and my second car was a ‘73 VW Super Beetle, straight off of the showroom floor! I would actually consider going electric in one of these babies!😉
My wife, daughter and myself do nearly all city driving. Range is not an issue for everyone. Our cars are parked most of the time and sit outdoors. If any solar charging is available, that might be all we need as all of use commute >2 miles then cars sit in parking lots for 9 hours under the sunlight. Small radius turning, ease of parallel parking are great features. I would love to see rust resistant materials as the north east USA puts tons of salt on the streets for nearly half of the year.
when I was young i always said if they built a e =v I would buy one I hated gas engine back in the always having tuned up about ever six month. so I agree with you and I loved the retro v w convertible now if they would make an old bus like that. I go back to the hippy days and the short time i spent calf camped with a guy in one of those and we were chasing that free love.
Thank you for the great video presentation. That Microlino seems to be the best choice for the price. The Baojun seems to be too good to be true. Regards 🙏😎📌
Where are you getting your sales number at? I look online at what you’re talking about and that Volkswagen beetle that is no 17,000 they have it almost as high as $100,000 and they sell it as a retrofit kits on regular beetles.
My choices out this collection is the Honda E and the VW E-UP. The VW is almost identical in size to my 2016 Spark EV. If I could update my Spark to have a faster on-board charger and the same 160 range my Spark would be close to perfect after all with the 140hp/357lb ft of torque it's a blast to drive.
@@automotiveterritory I bought it in September 2020 for $11K from a GM dealer 142 miles from home that had only 11K miles on it. Car is like new, no degradation in range from new and in fact during the warmer months I'd typically see closer to 90 on a charge and that's at or above the speed limits and dealing with all the hills around Pittsburgh PA. With 140hp and 357lb ft of torque it's the mini Cooper S I could never afford. I'm 6 ft tall and I have lots of space and has room in back for 2 adults so package wise it seems very similar to the E Up. I know I could've spent close to $9K especially if I lived on the west coast. I just turned 70, my other car is a 2004 Pontiac GTO (Vauxhall Monaro), and I enjoy driving the Spark just as much. I think the city/urban sized EVs are a perfect match especially for those of us who are retired now and drive mostly very short trips to the store although I'll be doing more pleasure driving this year to replace my motorcycle for those head clearing rides 😀 👍
Very nice choices. The information about estimated prices and range are already in the video. As for the other specifications, you should be able to find more on official sites, I have left links in the description.
We had a Zoe no trouble at all sold then upgraded to BMW i3 no problems at 40k miles. Simpler to service and long service intervals too 🌏🌞buzzing off toxic never been better, hope this is some help but do your research first #buzzofftoxic
My picks: a) VW Bug DER E-Kafer $17,500, b) BaoJun E300 $8,700, c) Microlino 2.0 $13, 200, d) VW E-UP ($24,220, e) E-Go Life Sport, $17,500. If I can't get the DER e-Kafer, I'm going for the BaoJun, then the VW E-UP. I'd love the Microlino as a city runner.
I wanna Xoom fleet in my town. The cost of buying EVs is prohibitive for me and many others. And here I am driving my mom’s old Mercury Sable gas ICE from 2005. People need mobility without the side effect of burning up our environment with polluting carbon-heavy emissions. Otherwise I eould have bought one of these tiny smart cars years ago. The new ones are so adorably snazzy. Great work! Also thanks for the review vids!
I like the eKafer, the vw up, the microlino and the Honda …..will keep reviewing which are the best in the uk. Worries about import tax and compatibility
My Wife has a December 2018 Smart car for 2 people. Only 4000 miles on clock in uk. On 5 occasions it has lost all power gone completely dead. At this time it's in the Mercedes workshop again for a week whilst all electrics stripped down and tested to try to find this fault, which could result in a fatal rear end collision. Any suggestions please?
Ora just got European patent for punk cat and ballet cat which may quench your beetle desire as VW won't make a retro beetle the same way the new buzz is sadly not retro either. Such a shame.
The canoo company do a chassis they call the skate board a lot like the old VW that means you can put different body combinations on the same chassis it also has drive by wire so steering wheel positions can be easily changed
These little teeny tiny cars are a +/-, for me... + I love the convertibles and the openness of the car - the others would feel like driving around in a literal tin can... That said - can't wait for the mini coopers to come out with their E-vehicles with convertibles...
Please do more videos about new mini electric cars. Every time I search for small mini electric cars I get Mini Cooper and it’s not even a mini car. 🤦🏻♂️ Thanks man for the videos. 👍🏻
Ya seriously seems like a no brainer..... A stylish classic with a electric system. Probably could get a decent range with it to. Better than other small cars.
I have started to get interested in these vehicles. I am now retired and have different requirements now for transport. I mainly use a car to go to the supermarket 10 miles away. I have a Toyota Corolla 1.6, nice car but it has way too much performance, I am no longer a mad 25 year old !! Electric vehicles in the UK have no car tax. I only need room for two people maximum, a top speed of 60 mph and a range between charges of 100 miles, reasonably comfortable. The wuling mini EV looks good and is cheap. But I doubt they will come to the UK at $4000 !
I've seen that there is new European legislation coming; it will concern the replacement batteries for our gadgets. So I wonder if something similar could be applied to electric cars in the future. Having a set of universal batteries for different types would vehicles would solve a lot of problems.
In the US a vehicle speed in city needs to be at least be able to exceed 40 mph on main streets. And a range of no less than100 miles , in Europe you don't have to drive as far as we do most of the vehicles that cover those categories are still pricey.
The company went bankrupt in 2020. An investor group tries to revive it, but they just burn money. The car is much too pricey for its cheap plastic-like look and feel.
2:35 wait..... woah woah woah woah. Your telling me there is a car that is affordable and has a massive range that can go anywhere except freeways for the most part with the only drawback being it's one person? That sounds awesome! Hopefully they can make it out of safe material for helping with crashes similar to the smart for two.
it a good thing to have these cars , BUT the lack of the power recharging station will have to be out there too , here in the usa i really have not seen to many of these stations , but i would love one if knew stations was a round
@@automotiveterritory I would not expect the microlino to meet the requirements of a car - e.g. crash tests - so if it will ever hit the market it may be officially a quad, like the Renault Twizzy. In the moment noone knows as it is vapourware.
As much as I would want one just to drive from Gallup to Albuquerque is 127 MI and no place to charge in between if it had at least a 225 mile range I would buy it today
I like all the new electric car. All are cute. When will be available. Can you deliver here in Philippines. How much is one unit that is very affordable price to a middle class
I love electric vehicles, and I'm waiting for them since I had 15 years old .....nearly 37 years ago. Fortunately we are starting to have a wide range of models to choose , But VW IT HAS LOST ALL CREDIBILITY. Yo nunca compraré un vw. I will not buy a vw never.
That is nice electric car for those who can afford to buy . We are only watching this video because it can entertain with us even we cannot afford to buy this kind of car, we love it because it is very cute and adorable.
By the way with the numbers that you just spoke about charging times that would turn a 2-hour car drive into a 4-Hour Drive I'm just talkin Gallup New Mexico to Albuquerque New Mexico
Honda Genius Cars,jenius makers. Very comfortable and very smart inside and outside. For good and intelectuals ,especially for women who commonly like small cars more than men.
I think there is a huge market for very low priced (£5000) 2 -4 seaters very small ev cars, just for going for shopping, pick up kids to n fro schools. No need big batteries, just normal 3 pins charge at home. max speed of 50mph, low insurance.
Ohh lordy lordy!! The prices are eye wateringly high. ORA start at £7k for a "proper" car. Chang Li start at 1200£! for a 2 seat "golf cart" type run around. You can get an original bug converted to EV for less than 7k
@@automotiveterritory I would say the ORA does yes, as long as extras are not important to you. The Chang Li, no, but if money is tight, they are a perfectly reasonable option, rather like the Twizzy but half the price!
@@automotiveterritory Yes I have looked them up in France and also in Belgium. Also the dutch Citroen dealer / importer. But nothing else than "soon / in a short time / this year" and such. I have not phoned them yet. See I have a very small ICE car already, no need now fot this yet. But I like one to have.
I see. I have heard they news that these will be available for rent in France (like in car sharing systems). If this concept catches on, maybe they will expand to other countries.
Automotive Territory: Trending News & Car Reviews True. In France you can drive them when you're just 16 years old. And you see a lot in Paris, like a city rental car / private Uber.
These micro cars could get smaller if you take the seat out and make people stand up while they're driving. Or how about driving while sitting on the Hood wearing raincoat
While these are cute to look at, I personally don't think these cars should exist. They take up more space compared to the amount of passengers and cargo carried. Cars shouldn't be made smaller than the VW POLO.
I want to purchase ev now, in fact; thousands of person waiting for ev, but companies r delaying supply, they will be remained in loss for their late launching
i guess the e-skoda, sister of the e-up, would be even cheaper, although almost the same. But how about the small e-vehicle that was projected by the MIT and had to be built in Spain, it really looked nice, is it dead and burryied ?
Out of the trio Skoda iV, SEAT Mii and VW up! I chose to feature only the original platform, but you are right that the other two could be even more affordable. As for the Hirico project, it seems to be dead.
My preference is the vw beetle its nice to have this iconic design on the road again.
Good choice!
My family has been vws all-time but from what I saw the VW is called Der e Kafer?

Major problem.. Most of these are Not sold in the USA.
I really like cars with a nostalgic and futuristic design with a futuristic technology like the Microlino Fiat 500E Honda E and the VW E Käfer
Those are really nice models.
I like the Fiat 500E and the VW and VW kefer too
I like the remaking of the VW Bug best. I especially like the size and design of it in comparison to the other cars displayed.
Agreed! It's a really nice option.
@@automotiveterritory ... but you will never hear that classic engine sound. Nice idea to get the tools back from Brazil and Mexico and reinstall them in Germany again.

@@automotiveterritory I would not expect the microlino to meet the requirements of a car - e.g. crash tests - so if it will ever hit the market it may be officially a quad, like the Renault Twizzy. In the moment noone knows as it is vapourware.
I like the VW models, good range, good mph and affordable.
As much as I would want one just to drive from Gallup to Albuquerque is 127 MI and no place to charge in between if it had at least a 225 mile range I would buy it today
DANGEROUS. PROTECT YOURSELF ON THE ROAD! Heavy metal vehicle.
I like all the new electric car. All are cute. When will be available. Can you deliver here in Philippines. How much is one unit that is very affordable price to a middle class
There is a list of websites in the description, where you can learn more about all of the mentioned models.
Love the VW Beatle. Love the retro look. Keep the cost down!
You and me both! Nice choice
This video talks rubbish. The price for the shown version is about 120,000$. They are converted from old gasoline beetles by a 3rd party workshop.
One year later and I haven’t seen any of these in the states.
But I like the Bug version
25% tariffs make it tough
Honda e for me! But I’d love the VW Käfer
Both are amazing options.
I love electric vehicles, and I'm waiting for them since I had 15 years old .....nearly 37 years ago. Fortunately we are starting to have a wide range of models to choose , But VW IT HAS LOST ALL CREDIBILITY.
Yo nunca compraré un vw.
I will not buy a vw never.
I'm glad for you that the selection is so wide besides the VW models then
The FIAT 500e
Your favorite of them all?
WUNNEWORLD except that it is twice as expensive !
My favorite by far is the New Fiat 500 as well! 🇮🇹🥰🇺🇸 Please let it come to the United States!
@@automotiveterritory Fiat 500, by far my favorite of them all! Please, please let it come to the United States
🇮🇹🥰🇺🇸 I'm ready to buy it now!!!!
are any of these available in USA
There is a list of official websites in the description. Information about local availability could be obtained there.
That is nice electric car for those who can afford to buy . We are only watching this video because it can entertain with us even we cannot afford to buy this kind of car, we love it because it is very cute and adorable.
We all hope that these could be more affordable in the future. The used models are getting more reasonably priced now.
By the way with the numbers that you just spoke about charging times that would turn a 2-hour car drive into a 4-Hour Drive I'm just talkin Gallup New Mexico to Albuquerque New Mexico
Right now small EVs are perfectly suited for city driving. Longer ranges would require the use of much larger batteries.
Honda Genius Cars,jenius makers. Very comfortable and very smart inside and outside. For good and intelectuals ,especially for women who commonly like small cars more than men.
Honda E is an attention grabber for sure. They have done a very nice choice designing this vehicle.
I think there is a huge market for very low priced (£5000) 2 -4 seaters very small ev cars, just for going for shopping, pick up kids to n fro schools. No need big batteries, just normal 3 pins charge at home. max speed of 50mph, low insurance.
Would be nice to have more options in this segment for sure.
VW E UP
We already have that in Norway
Awesome. So what do you think of this model?
If I didn't already have a car, I would buy the VW convertible in a heartbeat.
Wish we could get them in the USA. My favorite one is the next to last.
The Baojun E300 I would love one of those
Nice choice!
Ohh lordy lordy!! The prices are eye wateringly high.
ORA start at £7k for a "proper" car. Chang Li start at 1200£! for a 2 seat "golf cart" type run around.
You can get an original bug converted to EV for less than 7k
Do those cars that you mentioned provide similar specifications for a lower price?
@@automotiveterritory I would say the ORA does yes, as long as extras are not important to you. The Chang Li, no, but if money is tight, they are a perfectly reasonable option, rather like the Twizzy but half the price!
Thanks for the insights
7:44 is this a new versions of what old people move around in?
Isn't it a nice option for city commuting?
@@automotiveterritory Hell yeah
Still waiting in Holland for the Citroen Ami One. When is it here?...I WANT IT.
Have you tried requesting this information from their official website? I left a link to it in the description.
@@automotiveterritory Yes I have looked them up in France and also in Belgium. Also the dutch Citroen dealer / importer. But nothing else than "soon / in a short time / this year" and such.
I have not phoned them yet. See I have a very small ICE car already, no need now fot this yet. But I like one to have.
I see. I have heard they news that these will be available for rent in France (like in car sharing systems). If this concept catches on, maybe they will expand to other countries.
Automotive Territory: Trending News & Car Reviews True. In France you can drive them when you're just 16 years old. And you see a lot in Paris, like a city rental car / private Uber.
These micro cars could get smaller if you take the seat out and make people stand up while they're driving. Or how about driving while sitting on the Hood wearing raincoat
My next car will be electronic im so tired of getting gas. Would rather charge my car up. I have an electric bike and I love it. Team no gas.
So cool to hear that. What ebike do you own?
@@automotiveterritory Scrambler by Juiced bikes 💪
How can I perches this vehicle? Is there an agent in Sri Lanka?
There is a list of official manufacturer websites in the description
While these are cute to look at, I personally don't think these cars should exist. They take up more space compared to the amount of passengers and cargo carried.
Cars shouldn't be made smaller than the VW POLO.
Might as well save 20 grand and by a GOLF CART !!
Well, there are countries with narrow roads, where big cars are impractical to say the least.
@@automotiveterritory but they cause traffic congestion in cities just like big cars while only carrying two (almost always, only one) passengers.
VW-💪👍❤
Your favorite of them all?
Would love a Tango fast Fun safe and cool but sadly not yet available. Stick with our BMW i3S
How do you like your I3s so far?
Gifts 🎁 father bought... with my only complaint..Anaheid 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🐥🐥
I like the baby buggy.
Nice choice!
I want to purchase ev now, in fact; thousands of person waiting for ev, but companies r delaying supply, they will be remained in loss for their late launching
What model are you considering?
i guess the e-skoda, sister of the e-up, would be even cheaper, although almost the same. But how about the small e-vehicle that was projected by the MIT and had to be built in Spain, it really looked nice, is it dead and burryied ?
Out of the trio Skoda iV, SEAT Mii and VW up! I chose to feature only the original platform, but you are right that the other two could be even more affordable. As for the Hirico project, it seems to be dead.
How much and from where we can buy?
There is a list of official websites in the description.
I resonate with the title... minus the electric car part
Not a big fan of EVs?
@@automotiveterritory Some people just like paying more for energy I guess.
I like all of them but would buy the one with the boldest air conditioner.
Boldest air conditioner?
What about the changli? It's only $1,200!
Is it available in your country?
@@automotiveterritory I'm currently investigating that
