    Been leasing a Skoda Citigo iv for almost 3 years. Don’t need CCS as it’s 2nd EV. Brilliant car and lease cost £155 per month for 5k per year. It definitely deserved a mention.

      Yes ,strange that skoda made ccs an 'option' which when it comes to buying at auction difficult if they haven't taken a picture of the charge port !
      As ReFLEX we where able to offer e ups at £99 a month, over 3 years and 5k mikes with £800 initial rentals , we took 25 orders for Orkney drivers 😀

    Here in France the price is basically the same for the 3 brands. We went for the E-Up because the standard equipment was a bit better and there was more choice within the options.

    I like the honesty. Been inclining to the Mii over the eUp or the Fiat 500e. Miles per KwH is the primary stat for us, given a decent city plus range.
    But here in Yahkshuh we'd call it the "Eh Up!"

    Personally think the Up front end looks much better, rear lights and glass hatch nicer too. Also has the camera and controls on the steering wheel. Any of the 3 are great cars though

    Used to have a Mii EV. Only problem was the windscreen. It's heated and no AFAIK other Miis have that. I needed it replacing and Autoglass couldn't manage to order the right one. Four times I went in to find they'd ordered a plain screen yet again. Otherwise beware the base model Skoda Citigo which doesn't have CCS as standard.

      Well, we do have a VW ID.3 at the moment, but ...
      Over the years as family cars we have had Fords, Vauxhalls, Rovers and Peugeots. None of these cars has particularly been better or worse than each other.
      We chose the ID.3 because firstly, we like it* and secondly, the Mii / e-UP is just too small for our needs. There was no alternative at the time from Seat or Skoda and when the Cupra Born eventually arrived it was more expensive. Hmmm ... 🤔
      * Not Jonathan's cup of tea but it really doesn't matter. Sometimes I think that the reverse to badge snobbery affects some people disproportionately.
      If we ever have another car which is unlikely unless the ID.3 gets written off we will choose from what meets our needs and is actually available at the time. In about 10 years I think that a smaller car would be preferable but I am unlikely to sell just to replace the car.

The big differences that the Mii is missing, is the reversing camera and the buttons on the steering wheel. I would have liked the buttons, but the reversing camera in a car this small, is rather pointless.
