one of issues tho with ev’s seems to be that they are not very high for folk like me or have big boots. I understand that both will reduce battery distances probably why they are not full suvs.
Yeah, pet peeve of mine too. That said, it’s going to get better now, with dedicated EV platforms. PHEVs will always have that issue though (because it’s an ICE car with added batteries, they gotta go somewhere – whereas dedicated EV platforms usually are designed with boot space in mind, putting the batteries in the floor).
The issue of course being that they’re not on the scheme. Ionic 5 and Enyaq especially.
