    My mum has a Kona electric @Rene mentioned, but the base model AP is equivulent to the Enyak so I omitted it based on the Enyak being superior, along with being a decent size familiy car (also being larger than the other 2 mentioned)

    Indeed. Unless you can get a deal from your Hyundai dealer, for the money, the Enyaq is the best offering in my opinion, with the EV4 (despite being cheaper) being a close second.

    Part of that is that i kind of find the EV4 weird looking, whereas the Enyaq in my opinion is one of the best looking EVs out there still. It’s not an efficiency blob. But that, of course, is subjective. The (still ongoing) ICCU issues with Hyundai Motor Group cars (Hyundai, Kia and Genesis) is the more important reason though.

    As MickC stated, extension is also an option if the main issue on the current car is the missing two seats. If you can’t have those two seats, might as well stick with the car you currently have and wait out a few new quarterly lists. You never know, might get lucky and the Peaq gets added with a decent AP.

    APs for “higher end” cars are hard to judge, you get a Vauxhall PHEV for £7000 on one hand, and the Ioniq 6 top spec for as low as £500 when we ordered.

    Or, it could always be that the e-5008 comes down in price. Now, with all the new MB “issues” (VAT, PayperMile etc) coming soon, that probably is wishful thinking, but.. you know. One can cling to hope.

    edit: one other rather long shot, you can always hunt for deals. In the pinned “Deals” thread recently, a dealership in York offered £800 off all Peugeots. You may of course have to travel to where the discount is offered, but in almost all cases, the savings outweigh the outlay for travel by magnitudes.

    £800 still probably leaves the E-5008 out of reach, but, you know. Browse and see if something works out (i only checked two of the 9 pages).
