EV general discussion

Had a Golf R, it's not exactly the paradigm of driver fun. It's a slightly better golf with a 4 pot turbo and 4wd... :cry:

I'll take my EV any day, on average it's so much better even if the rare odd time I get to 'have fun' isn't as much fun
 
GT button is scary as hell. It’s like the car is trying to kill you.

“Yep you now have all the power and everything set to max oh and by the way we have switched of traction control too good luck”

Why…lol.

Sounds like the boost button on my GV70

Barely used it. Feels like the front tyres are barely connected to the road when I press that.

varifocals are what I use - but any cars with digital rear view mirrors would be out - megane e-tech would be problematic, possibly digital side mirrors too.
maybe most cars now have this but (like audi) being able to put the speed in large digits in centre of instrument panel is useful, especially for decelerating on upcoming speed zones.


did you discard mach-e - also sub 20K - forget who posted pictures of their nice yellow one.

I considered the Mach E. I really like them and interior looks nice with good range.

The warranty on the Hyundai is swinging it at the moment.

I am fortunate enough to have had a couple of nice cars over the years - best petrol one probably a 350z.. (3.5l V6 300bhp in a small 2 seater) however I can honestly say I don't miss it any more in my ipace .

having a 1.5 diesel nissan QQ in between the 2 may help that however. Anything is a fun drive compared to that tractor.

Test drove an Ioniq 6 today.

Does feel a bit cheaper than the ID 7, but driving experience is a bit better.


Really nice suspension, excellent brakes.


Pricing on them is good atm but not sure how long it’d last, and won’t be in a position to get one for a little while.



Dealership experience was infinitely better than any VW/BMW/Audi dealership I’ve been to as well.



Shame it’s so weird looking.
