Decisions. Decisions. We have extended our lease until March 22. At the end we intended to get an EV. The reason for this is we do a lot of miles. Although there are a few EV’s on the scheme, none as of yet fully meet our requirements. Ideally we would like something close to what we already have, bmwx1. Do we hold out until the end of the lease in the hope that similar cars come onto the scheme. Or do we make the move now. The Kona for price is excellent. But the boot is too small and rear seat space. The E niro is bigger but not on the scheme. If only there was an EV on the scheme the same as our BMW. If there was I expect the AP will be £4k +. Do we go for the Kona and live with it for £499 or wait and pay £4k.
I was expecting the kona to be a lot smaller inside going by the reviews, don’t get me wrong, it’s not massive but it’s not as toy sized as the reviews made out (again, we’re quite a short family). Range wise I think it will be a while until we see something on the scheme beating the Koreans, and in terms of equipment and price the Kona is hard to beat, but if you want something with the same sort of range and a little more space the Kia Soul and VW id3 are worth a look
