Hi all!
I was against EV for a while, hated it really! But lately I got to try a few Polestar 2, I rent them 5-6 times now on business trip, just got one on a trip to Scotland for 4 days and I have to admit I enjoy it a lot! The country roads, small hills, lot of fun!
I had a i4 M50 for 2 days, couple of months ago, same feeling, quite fun!
But most of the EV now are big saloon car, family 4 doors or SUV.
At home I have a M440i xDrive Coupé and I would love to have a small fun EV as a second car, so I was wondering what you guys think about it ? What EV would you go for ? Any EV on the way that seems promising ?
Thanks!
About the closest thing to a hot hatch currently in EV world would be the VW ID3 or Cupra Born - I’ve driven a MG4 XPower and while it’s stupidly fast in a straight line (like Tesla M3P fast) it does not have decent handling dynamics unlike the other two. They are all still large cars (Golf/T-Roc sized) and quite heavy, the usual compromise you get with EVs. Maybe the incoming VW ID2 might be what you are looking for?
