Which electric car are you most excited by in 2020?
Tesla model S Plaid and 2020(2021) roadster
Porsche Taycan
Jaguar XJ , a brave decision to make it all electric , politicians and royalty may have to get used to taking more breaks while they wait to charge it up on a long journey , lol , very interested to find out how capable it will be with all the latest tech available !
The Honda E
Mach E
Here I am in the U.S. only able to get a pittance of these amazing vehicles. "Oh but don't worry, Ford and GM are going to make electric trucks.". Oh yay, MORE giant wastes of space.
Here we can get Model 3's for much less than Europeans though.
Big diesel rigs can run on natural gas ,with a little less power .
Same here in NZ. They only started selling the Leaf hear last year and have nothing else
@@canyoncreekster Same with buses. Our entire transit system uses CNG-powered buses, and the problems of 20 years ago with the initial ones have been resolved.
After speaking of German voices.........
Rory: "I love that, it does something to me, I don't know what it is"
Sabine Schmitz:"...... that explains some happenings on Top Gear.... ja...."
"I love tight little boxes." - Robby L. 2020
I really love this video. I watched the whole video and I think its still not long enough. Thank you Rory for all your great reviews.
A great video and love the presentation relationship. Two knowledgeable guys.
great energy guys, keep up the good work!
Thanks guys , great show. One small thing, maybe do more on charging networks across UK/Europe, and costs in different places. Available/ not so good places etc. 👍👍👍
208 and Corsa are just perfect for the real world. Done.
Had a quote for the 208 at £410 a month including part exchange
And Tesla Model 3 isn't?
Lars Pallesen the model 3 is like £15k more expensive
@@bradoslav36 FWIW My Model 3 is £480 pm. 6k Deposit, 4yrs. As self employed business user I can claim quite a bit back so the difference is < £70 per month.
I started using one pedal driving in my Leaf in late December 2019. I haven't touched the brake pedal since.
Use it a few times or it will seize up and let you down big time.
Really enjoyed this vid and it's great to hear that Rory will be joining the Fully Charged team. Hope to see him at FC Live in Farnborough!
Great show, guys - well done and thank you! No mention of the Audi eTron GT or the Porsche Taycan?
Awesome list guys. The ID3, zoie, And E Up are some of my favorites. I love my Tesla 3. It is too complicated expensive and big for say a second home in the Caribbean.
Welcome to Fully Chargred Rory, looking forward to your first video once the current situation has ended. Great video and interesting to see what is coming to Europe, can only hope some of them make it to Australia more than the Nissan which is disappointing what they are doing to their EV division.
Top team - love the passion and humour
Great video, can’t wait For Rory to fully join fully charged show
He’ll have to fully switch and sell his V8 Mustang
Great video! Love the Marvel poster and kids interrupting in the background. Reminds me of my house :P
Great to see you guys talking 👌😎
Great banter guys. Eagerly waiting for more.
I love the enthusiasm
Thanks for doing a crossover show with Bobby and Fully Charged!
Request: Please use proper microphones. The ones on the phone headsets sound like smeg.
Still driving my Kia Optima PHEV. I stopped tanking more then a gallon because that gets me through the entire summer. A brilliant car all around.
We have two Tesla 3s and a Tesla S in the extended family, and the respective owners are delighted with them.
Should hope so for what they cost
@@norfolkngood8960 As long as you keep your cars 10 or more years, as I do anyway, you can easily compensate for the high up front cost in greatly reduced maintenance and fuel costs. Correction: the Model S owners also have a Model Y, so make that four Teslas in the extended family. When my elder son finally retires his 2002 Audi A4 Quattro, he plans to replace it with a Tesla 3.
I’m glad you did that Vid, I was wondering where Robert had gone
Rory, you need some lighting in your studio! Nice vid 👍
Top man Rory.... You, Robert, Johnny Smith and Mat Watson are the best car journos/reviewers around. no doubt.
Best car depends on market. In Sweden with free 22kw AC chargers everywhere, Renault Zoe is the best entry EV with a good balance of AC and DC.
Great to hear Rory joining the Fully Charged show!
Great show as usual. On the subject of efficiency, could you do an in depth study of why some cars, Hyundai and Tesla in particular, are more efficient than the average, and others, the Jaguar for example, are dire. I have looked for differences and clearly weight and drag co-efficient have some effects but they don't explain all the difference. If you think about it, my friends Ioniq does '60mpg' to my Zoe's '40' and it is a bigger, heavier and more powerful car. I would love to understand the difference as it seems to me that electric cars need to be economical just as surely as ICE cars do. Thanks, Tim
Great to see Rory back doing his "thing" around cars. ;)
Err,.. looks fine, what are their comparable EPA ranges, pls?
You never came back to SEAT el Born.. I personally prefure the el Born from id 3.
Yes, agree with that and the one thing that annoyed me a bit about this video was that Robert was interrupted just as he was about to mention the SEAT El Born. I think that this will be a really good car as, in my opinion, when you compare the equivalent ICE VW car to its SEAT equivalent; E.g. VW Golf Vs. SEAT Leon, the Leon is basically a better looking Golf, for less money. So, given that the El Born is built on the ID3 platform once again I’m expecting a fairly similar car, in terms of performance and technology, just cheaper and much better looking.
@@stephenjenkins10 I agree on the El Born, though from the context (e-Up) I did wonder whether Robert was about to confuse it with the Mii
Most of the way through waiting for them to review the Audi E-Tron. Have one coming next week. Other reviews look good.
Looking forward to seeing Rory on Fully Charged show. Gonna be great!
That Honda E is my favorite of the bunch. I hope we do get that vehicle here in the USA.
I wonder if the Nissan Leaf has gotten better? My buddy had one and had a lot of issued with His. I would hope they've made improvements to the range.
Range is higher now. 150 or so standard miles of range and over 200 miles for the Leaf plus. Still no active thermal management of the battery pack but it's been out for a bit so you can look to see if there are any issues with it.
I’d pay upwards of $40k if they sold a Type R version the E over here, and it had the range and speed of a Dual Motor Model 3👍👍
These two are good together, I look forward to Fully Charged with the both of them. 🙃
Are Audi etron qutarro 4! v Tesla Y. Both coming out similar time in UK?
Hi guys, coming from a 3 and 4 series bmw convertible background, is there a convertible like those in the electric car market. Something sporty looking with rear seats. Thanks...
I have a Ford mondo Diesel estate & have been very satisfied with everything about it .l love basics.the rear windows are still wind up.it must be an estate for my dogs.
Love ths videos you guys are doing huge fan of Robert and Rory, first saw Rory in the 90's playing killer instinct on Games Master!
WHOA! Day ZERO! MUCH love. -Rory
@@AutoTraderTV I'm sure you have a copy of said Games Master but if not I have the box set so hit me up if you need one.
Really happy to see this collaboration - prompted me to subscribe to your channel.
So I am thinking about how these call interviews could be improved. Here are the following things I found "uncomfortable" from video consumption standpoint:
1) At time cuts were too quick so it felt like rhythm is lost. Sure it was a time-saving thing but on these interviews, I feel like you can be a bit more lenient on length - we are watching you guys chat and enjoy the conversation about topics we also enjoy rather than looking for an efficient car review. Otherwise, if the short length is indeed the goal, having a script divided in more chunks would be better to optimise for length in post.
2) You didn't have a common background sound which made it feel like - "Robert talks about one topic, you switch to another" while actually you were commenting and discussing the same topic with him. I am thinking maybe having the same background noise track from one of your sides being played across the whole video. This in conjunction with fewer quick cuts could add to the flow.
3) The camera set up on your side could be pulled a bit further out. Not sure what you used for the call but I see two potential solutions - since webcams generally suck but phone cameras are fine, in well-lit conditions use a phone for a video call (Google Duo or Microsoft Teams has a pretty ok quality) ALTERNATIVELY since video calls do go through compression, set up a separate camera recording you - this will also let you switch between two viewpoints if needed.
Of course, I don't know your quarantine set up so it's completely understandable to have problems during this time but if you are able to take anything from these three points, that's nice. Looking forward to your future videos.
I have a 2021 Model 3 Tesla, I was wondering when you were going to feature on the video about the Tesla features.
In which year was the ID.3 tested in South Africa?
Will we get a 5 door electric mini any time soon?
What about the Skoda Enyaq ?
I tried the Peugeot e-208 about 2 months ago, and it was nice, but I'm 6'4"(195cm) and didn't actually fit in it. I had the steering wheel pressing against my legs
What is the music played at the end of the video? Can you post a link to the artist please.
I heard the lotus evija has easy access to its batteries so they can be swapped out when battery tech evolves, do you think more manufacturers should be doing this?
Fletch No, Not worth it Range is acceptable now.
What are your opinions on Polestar 2?
Pity about the colour range on the e-niro.
It's funny when the Kona and E-Niro first came out I liked the looks of the Kona better. I recognized that it might be the more "gaudy" of the two, but I liked it. By comparison I thought the E-Niro was very vanilla. Not ugly, just kind of meh. But the E-Niro has really grown on me. One thing I'd be curious to hear about from people who've driven both is the usability of the touch screen. Everyone says the Niro interior is nicer, but to me the touchscreen placement looks like it would be easier to use for the driver.
a RWD golf (id3) sounds promising, but they need to do a performance version like Tesla offer
MINI - IS it over priced in UK? or short supply ??
Great to see this collaboration starting already!
did u try porsch electric
Talking about 1 pedal driving, my i3 is the same. It is so bad, that I had to buy a rust protecting spray to spray on my break disks, as they would rust up, because I do not use the brake. Absolutely love my i3. Will not swap it for anything, but a Tesla, which unfortunately isn't available here.
what country are you from where teslas aren't in? I didn't know that they didn't ship in all countries.
i agree they should make a basic EV like a dacia with a big battery IE 100kwh battery.... safe 400 mile range
Is the quality of the paint used on the Tesla model 3 still as terrible as it was at the start?
Hit by elderly when young but hybrid electric good deasil?
The Twingo Z.E, with grant in UK, would make it the true budget E.V. Why is it not coming to the UK?
a pretty good line up guys, thanks for this list. i think arriving approx 2021/2022 is the vw id crozz, which i think will sell currently like toilet paper.
Americans will order truck loads of ID 4's at Costco... By 8 ID 4's and get a semi-trailer for free!
Hyundai Kona EV is the best. Amazing range, loaded with tech, good looking, and a 5 year warranty.
Nik Gnashers how long of a wait to get one?
@@lemongavine Not sure at the moment, as my workplace is shut (I work at a Hyundai dealership), so can't ask the salesmen .....
It's literally the ugliest car on the market, which is a shame.
@@RaggyJha I feel like it wouldn't look quite so bad if it didn't have those big cheap plastic bits around the wheels! The front looks alright.
no mention of the Hyundai Ioniq?
@ 15:38, Bobby Lew's "Hy-un-da-dai" 😆. He cracks me up! Very interesting video. My wish is for Kia to make a cheap e-Picanto, in the vein of VW e-UP! and Skoda Citigo-e. VAG is very much "on the nose" in Australia. Their ID3 sounds stunning from a design point of view, but I'll most likely buy from the Hyundai/Kia family. Had high hopes for the Honda Urban ev, but it's too fancy, too impractical and Honda are MASSIVELY reducing their presence in the backwater of Australia.
Brilliant
I love the stats of the VW I3, but prefer the looks of the Corsa. Then again the I3 has a better interior. And being European im scared to buy an American electric car but love some of their tech
sucks that 90% of the cars you mention arent available in Canada! :( pisses me off that we are forgotten about across the pond!
What EVs are available that were not mentioned?
I can tell you two reasons. They don’t have the range and they are too small for the North American market. They will not sell well. VW is making the ID4 suv for North America. The demand for SUVs is high vs cars in North America.
You missed the Kia Soul EV, nicely trimed out better than the E-Niro and handles nice, you would like the size.
i heard the expensive e-niro service is around €1000 :/ given the same drivetrain i guess the Soul is just as expensive.
I should get a Golf, I like a tight little box.
What is electric car designed in2020
Hyundai....Sunday
The pronunciation has been on the internet, You tube for years...good review
I forgot to mention the Seat El Born. Does anyone else think it looks like a Tesla model 3. I've seen lots of interiors starting to look Tesla-esque and now it seems that they are showing the traditional car makers that fussy styling is not good on the outside either.
Rory - great that you will be teaming up with Fully Charged.
Robert - you mentioned the Leaf and the Zoe, but forgot the BMW i3! You smeghead!
The reason I ordered my Model 3 to change places with my 30kW Leaf is the Supercharger network... Charging and driving the Leaf is a gamble that sometimes goes terribly wrong. Have no problem with paying more to get the peace of mind that you not get stranded in a Tesla
There are lots of better choices than the unreliable expensive ugly duckling Model 3. And not to mention it's poor build quality. Getting it repaired will be a challenge.
What a difference a few years makes, when all you had was Model S and the Leaf, neither of which were of much interest to most UK buyers. Now there's finally some proper choice in the offing, and the range issue finally seems to have been put to bed. All we need now is more joined up charging infrastructure and the prices to drop, cars reaching the second hand market and it's job done. At least it's now obvious that the futures is all electric, and resistance is futile.
Tesla owns Solar City. Why not develop a solar recharging panel on every EV? A car could theoretically travel 3,000 miles non-stop. What about a solar panel on the trailer for the Tesla semi truck tractor unit?
We don’t get Skoda over here, that, along with the accent, @7:58 I thought you said “City Girl”😆 There I was, thinking: now that’s a proper name for a car👍
Yo its the guy that top gear fecked up on him and Chris Reid were good together
Did he say when talking about VW’s in America; that they were having to buy loads of BMW’s back? 3:01
Must've been a mistake as he was talking about VW
Oli Hudson honestly, I was so drunk watching it. I had no idea if I’d gone mad 😂😭
Bobby was talking about the backlash against diesel in the USA, (brought on by VW because of "dieselgate") and that BMW had to buy back loads of it's diesel cars from the USA. No mistake made, the common thread being stinky diesel.
I don't understand why the new 500 wasn't mentioned?
I like a tight box too.
I had a friend worked for Hyundai 20 years ago in the factory and he said the correct way to pronounce Hyundai is....hYondye, that is the "h" very soft and the rest of the word very pronounced. Hope this makes sense ?
Just waiting for the ID3 to get an OS. Apparently too many different manufacturers systems to deal with.
First OTA update will be never wrecking for id3
@@alanrickett2537 It can’t do OTA updates IIRC. Needs a physical visit per car.
Currently no ota but they have said they are adding the feature but why would you let them with their track record in software
What car is the Honder ?
The one that ripped off the Honda logo.
Kona and Niro are essentially the same. But the main differences in UK spec. are more load volume in Niro but greater load weight in Kona. The Kona has a greater level of safety tech in the highest spec., than the only spec. of the Niro. Also, the Kona 2020 MY, appears to have an 11kW onboard charger, while the Niro still has the 7.2kW.
But probably the biggest selling point, is the Kona’s great maximum potential range in all weathers. Real world range for summer - Kona 300+mi. Whereas the Niro might top 270mi. In winter you can knock 12% off those. And for sub 0°C, driving at night with snow and winter tyres, you could reduce those ranges by a further 12-15%.
Out of the two. If range is the deciding factor, it’s the Hyundai Kona Electric. If you need the load volume it’s the Kia eNiro. If you have the money and want both, it’s the Tesla Model Y LR Plus. And if you’re on a tighter budget. With a similar range to the Niro and load volume of the Nissan Leaf, then it’s the Renault Zoe ZE.50 R110. The R135 has a bit more punch but you’ll have to pay for it. Either way, if you go for the Zoe, remember to specify the £750 CCS charger and you still get their 22kW AC charger.
What about the Tycan
Exquisite most electric car
Fun. But motorway driving being the worst thing .. that's out of date Rory. My Ioniq delivers the range it promises. If might affect some cars but it's not the blanket issue it was.
Predictable range and good fast charging infrastructure make such a difference.
That Milton Keynes parkway place is the future.
Hi,
Can you explain fast charging please !
I’m just about to order this vehicle,is fast charging the cable or the power point?
I live near a 22W street electrical point & near a electric lamppost.
Can I fast charge from there ?
For slow chargers 90% of the time you use your cable and get speeds between 6 and 22 kw I think the lamp post is one of these. Fast chargers are mostly 50kw there are a few which are 150-350 kw. Tesla have their own network with charging speeds between 130-250kw the 250 is very rare at the moment. I would recommend using aps like charge map and plug share. On fast chargers you are mostly limited to what the car can take for ex an i3 can only take 50kw even on a 350kw charger.
Love Bobbyllew
How about trucks, or SUV's the largest segment of the market?
for america, europe needs sedans and small city cars
So the conclusion is to get Model 3 as it is overall the all!
Do you think the forecasted recession coupled with cheap petrol and job losses will have an effect on the EV market
"Electron chundering" the new phrase post covid.... 👀🤣
The mid range VW ID3 1st edition looks to be very near £40K (with no frills) - which is why I bowed out. The 77kwhr long range ID3 will likely be nearer £50k. We don't actually know price yet - but if it is around that level then this is hopelessly high priced. If VW are serious about affordable EVs they are going the wrong way (the Tesla way) about it (without Tesla wow factor).
Also interesting (so I hear) that the long range big battery car is so heavy and the footprint so small that it can only be a 4 seater. That will just kill it as a serious family car proposition.
About 2:38. "ehnn!... they're like a tight little box"... well. my.
Did you miss the Niro and the Soul ? Also, why not point out the DS etense flaws, eg costs much more same battery size as Pug 208 but bigger body so lower range and more sluggish, and whilst style is subjective who on earth could like the ridiculous body styling cutting into the rear windows?
What about Polestar 2?
knowledge share same price in Sweden 🤷🏼♂️ SR+ starts at $57,000.
[Hyon- day].... according to my Korean wife ;) ... although they have different pronunciation per country in ads
Robert stated VW are having some small issues with the software on the ID3. That appears to Be an understatement when VW have admitted the OS does not talk to all the systems in the car and they don’t have the Tech people to fix it. Hardly can be described as a small issue.
