I’m confused.
Following my time in hire cars, I could (just) drive the Jeep Avenger, which was a horribly small car and even the iX2 was comfortably bigger than the Jeep but smaller than the Ioniq 5 I was comfortable in terms of driving it and having space around me to drive. The Ioniq 5 has elbow room spare, in fact probably too much space as I’m even struggling to touch both the side of the car and the steering wheel. If you’re one of those drivers who stick their elbow on the top of the door panel, you’ll struggle in the Hyundai. That said, it guarantees I’ll not be banging elbows with people or car. However, I’m thinking that having that much space could well be excluding cars that would otherwise have been a very sensible choice.
I guess it’s a bit of a rethink and some traveling around sitting in cars again. I suspect that the EV3 will still be very tight but the others will have plenty of space. I’m so glad I’ve got plenty of time, I think I’m going to need it.
In reverse order it looks like my long list will be:
EV3 GT Line S £3,299
Ariya Advance £3,749
Enyaq SE L Plus £1,999
EV5 GT Line £6999 (please come down significantly!!)
EV5 Air £3,999
I’m still hoping for the Xpeng G6, which looks brilliant every time I look at reviews and/or the Zeekr 7x but am struggling for further ideas.
I’m avoiding anything that comes from the Stellantis stable, every one I’ve experience has some nice features ruined by cheap bits and reliability questions.
I'm Autistic, if I say something you find offensive, please let me know, I can guarantee it was unintentional.
I'll try to give my honest opinion but am always open to learning.
