  • So I’m pretty set on an electric car next, post summer as I stupidly just bought a new car which I’m not really comfortable with.

    I need it to drive down farm tracks more regularly than I’d like and I visit the wilderness of Scotland frequently which means a 4x4 variety will be needed.

    I like the e tron range, I sit in them for 200 miles often so comfort and happiness are high priorities.

    They have a range of 300 miles which is okay, question is how reliable will 200 miles range be and what’s the charge I will gain off a house socket in 8 hours. Basically if I’m 200 there and 200 back will I have the range boosting it when on site.

    Also a shout out to the Kia ev9 that is perking a lot of interest.

  • The Q4 etron is the worst EV on the market today for value. I’ll fight anyone who disagrees.

    Awful cars.

    Whole range is a rip off.

  • From the article above, the Baojun Yep?

    Why?

    I'm not massively up on all the EVs in the market, but nothing about what you've said sounds like an EV is a good idea. Imo it sounds like you'd be much better off with a 2nd hand ICE and wait 2-3yrs.

    I'd also second the "not wanting to sound cunty but comment". Would a lift and off-road tyres do the job? It sounds not. Tbh it sounds like you should be getting a disco. Or a Freelander maybe? They're cheap and meant to be very capable offroad by Internet geeks. At a guess I'd expect them to have less tech to go wrong than a disco.
