Makes & Models EV Buyers Guide Background image: Designed by senivpetro / Freepik Types of EV SUVs A Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV) is a type of automobile that combines elements of road-going passenger cars with features from off-road vehicles, such as raised ground clearance and four-wheel drive. Those three ingredients: a high driving position, better performance in icy weather and plenty of space make SUVs particularly attractive to families. Practical / Small Family EVs The most popular car being bought today in the UK still tends to be the traditional family hatchback. A hatchback offers families (even those with dogs) just about everything they could need in a car by being spacious but not as big as SUVs, making them easier to manoeuvre and park. The original problems associated with electric cars (high prices, restricted performance at higher speeds and a limited driving range) have all been addressed, providing a very attractive solution for this market segment. Small/city EVs Electric power and small cars have always been a natural fi t. Their nippy acceleration is ideal in town, where shorter journeys mean that you don’t need to worry about recharging until you get home. Future Releases The electric car revolution has continued in earnest into the 2020s, with exciting new electric cars arriving every month. Prices are just about starting to come down to affordable levels, and range is going up making them more attractive to purchase over existing petrol/diesel counterparts. Here are a few exciting models that will be released over the next couple of years.
