Which electric car are you most excited by in 2020?

After speaking of German voices......... Rory: "I love that, it does something to me, I don't know what it is" Sabine Schmitz:"...... that explains some happenings on Top Gear.... ja...."

208 and Corsa are just perfect for the real world. Done.

"I love tight little boxes." - Robby L. 2020

Best car depends on market. In Sweden with free 22kw AC chargers everywhere, Renault Zoe is the best entry EV with a good balance of AC and DC.

I really love this video. I watched the whole video and I think its still not long enough. Thank you Rory for all your great reviews.

Awesome list guys. The ID3, zoie, And E Up are some of my favorites. I love my Tesla 3. It is too complicated expensive and big for say a second home in the Caribbean.

Great video, can’t wait For Rory to fully join fully charged show

Thanks guys , great show. One small thing, maybe do more on charging networks across UK/Europe, and costs in different places. Available/ not so good places etc. 👍👍👍

Still driving my Kia Optima PHEV. I stopped tanking more then a gallon because that gets me through the entire summer. A brilliant car all around.

Really enjoyed this vid and it's great to hear that Rory will be joining the Fully Charged team. Hope to see him at FC Live in Farnborough!

I started using one pedal driving in my Leaf in late December 2019. I haven't touched the brake pedal since.

Here I am in the U.S. only able to get a pittance of these amazing vehicles. "Oh but don't worry, Ford and GM are going to make electric trucks.". Oh yay, MORE giant wastes of space.

A great video and love the presentation relationship. Two knowledgeable guys.

We have two Tesla 3s and a Tesla S in the extended family, and the respective owners are delighted with them.

Great video! Love the Marvel poster and kids interrupting in the background. Reminds me of my house :P

Great show, guys - well done and thank you! No mention of the Audi eTron GT or the Porsche Taycan?

great energy guys, keep up the good work!

Top team - love the passion and humour

Welcome to Fully Chargred Rory, looking forward to your first video once the current situation has ended. Great video and interesting to see what is coming to Europe, can only hope some of them make it to Australia more than the Nissan which is disappointing what they are doing to their EV division.

Great to see you guys talking 👌😎

I love the enthusiasm

Great banter guys. Eagerly waiting for more.

Thanks for doing a crossover show with Bobby and Fully Charged! Request: Please use proper microphones. The ones on the phone headsets sound like smeg.

Great to hear Rory joining the Fully Charged show!

You never came back to SEAT el Born.. I personally prefure the el Born from id 3.

Rory, you need some lighting in your studio! Nice vid 👍

Top man Rory.... You, Robert, Johnny Smith and Mat Watson are the best car journos/reviewers around. no doubt.

These two are good together, I look forward to Fully Charged with the both of them. 🙃

Most of the way through waiting for them to review the Audi E-Tron. Have one coming next week. Other reviews look good.

Great show as usual. On the subject of efficiency, could you do an in depth study of why some cars, Hyundai and Tesla in particular, are more efficient than the average, and others, the Jaguar for example, are dire. I have looked for differences and clearly weight and drag co-efficient have some effects but they don't explain all the difference. If you think about it, my friends Ioniq does '60mpg' to my Zoe's '40' and it is a bigger, heavier and more powerful car. I would love to understand the difference as it seems to me that electric cars need to be economical just as surely as ICE cars do. Thanks, Tim

Hyundai Kona EV is the best. Amazing range, loaded with tech, good looking, and a 5 year warranty.

I have a Ford mondo Diesel estate & have been very satisfied with everything about it .l love basics.the rear windows are still wind up.it must be an estate for my dogs.

Really happy to see this collaboration - prompted me to subscribe to your channel. So I am thinking about how these call interviews could be improved. Here are the following things I found "uncomfortable" from video consumption standpoint: 1) At time cuts were too quick so it felt like rhythm is lost. Sure it was a time-saving thing but on these interviews, I feel like you can be a bit more lenient on length - we are watching you guys chat and enjoy the conversation about topics we also enjoy rather than looking for an efficient car review. Otherwise, if the short length is indeed the goal, having a script divided in more chunks would be better to optimise for length in post. 2) You didn't have a common background sound which made it feel like - "Robert talks about one topic, you switch to another" while actually you were commenting and discussing the same topic with him. I am thinking maybe having the same background noise track from one of your sides being played across the whole video. This in conjunction with fewer quick cuts could add to the flow. 3) The camera set up on your side could be pulled a bit further out. Not sure what you used for the call but I see two potential solutions - since webcams generally suck but phone cameras are fine, in well-lit conditions use a phone for a video call (Google Duo or Microsoft Teams has a pretty ok quality) ALTERNATIVELY since video calls do go through compression, set up a separate camera recording you - this will also let you switch between two viewpoints if needed. Of course, I don't know your quarantine set up so it's completely understandable to have problems during this time but if you are able to take anything from these three points, that's nice. Looking forward to your future videos.

Looking forward to seeing Rory on Fully Charged show. Gonna be great!

I’m glad you did that Vid, I was wondering where Robert had gone

Great to see Rory back doing his "thing" around cars. ;)

Love ths videos you guys are doing huge fan of Robert and Rory, first saw Rory in the 90's playing killer instinct on Games Master!

That Honda E is my favorite of the bunch. I hope we do get that vehicle here in the USA. I wonder if the Nissan Leaf has gotten better? My buddy had one and had a lot of issued with His. I would hope they've made improvements to the range.

Err,.. looks fine, what are their comparable EPA ranges, pls?

I heard the lotus evija has easy access to its batteries so they can be swapped out when battery tech evolves, do you think more manufacturers should be doing this?

It's funny when the Kona and E-Niro first came out I liked the looks of the Kona better. I recognized that it might be the more "gaudy" of the two, but I liked it. By comparison I thought the E-Niro was very vanilla. Not ugly, just kind of meh. But the E-Niro has really grown on me. One thing I'd be curious to hear about from people who've driven both is the usability of the touch screen. Everyone says the Niro interior is nicer, but to me the touchscreen placement looks like it would be easier to use for the driver.

I love the stats of the VW I3, but prefer the looks of the Corsa. Then again the I3 has a better interior. And being European im scared to buy an American electric car but love some of their tech

Are Audi etron qutarro 4! v Tesla Y. Both coming out similar time in UK?

Pity about the colour range on the e-niro.

i agree they should make a basic EV like a dacia with a big battery IE 100kwh battery.... safe 400 mile range

a RWD golf (id3) sounds promising, but they need to do a performance version like Tesla offer

Hi guys, coming from a 3 and 4 series bmw convertible background, is there a convertible like those in the electric car market. Something sporty looking with rear seats. Thanks...

@ 15:38, Bobby Lew's "Hy-un-da-dai" 😆. He cracks me up! Very interesting video. My wish is for Kia to make a cheap e-Picanto, in the vein of VW e-UP! and Skoda Citigo-e. VAG is very much "on the nose" in Australia. Their ID3 sounds stunning from a design point of view, but I'll most likely buy from the Hyundai/Kia family. Had high hopes for the Honda Urban ev, but it's too fancy, too impractical and Honda are MASSIVELY reducing their presence in the backwater of Australia.

What about the Skoda Enyaq ?

In which year was the ID.3 tested in South Africa?

Hyundai....Sunday The pronunciation has been on the internet, You tube for years...good review

Great to see this collaboration starting already!

Will we get a 5 door electric mini any time soon?

I have a 2021 Model 3 Tesla, I was wondering when you were going to feature on the video about the Tesla features.

Brilliant

MINI - IS it over priced in UK? or short supply ??

Talking about 1 pedal driving, my i3 is the same. It is so bad, that I had to buy a rust protecting spray to spray on my break disks, as they would rust up, because I do not use the brake. Absolutely love my i3. Will not swap it for anything, but a Tesla, which unfortunately isn't available here.

What are your opinions on Polestar 2?

What is the music played at the end of the video? Can you post a link to the artist please.

I tried the Peugeot e-208 about 2 months ago, and it was nice, but I'm 6'4"(195cm) and didn't actually fit in it. I had the steering wheel pressing against my legs

a pretty good line up guys, thanks for this list. i think arriving approx 2021/2022 is the vw id crozz, which i think will sell currently like toilet paper.

Hit by elderly when young but hybrid electric good deasil?

sucks that 90% of the cars you mention arent available in Canada! :( pisses me off that we are forgotten about across the pond!

What a difference a few years makes, when all you had was Model S and the Leaf, neither of which were of much interest to most UK buyers. Now there's finally some proper choice in the offing, and the range issue finally seems to have been put to bed. All we need now is more joined up charging infrastructure and the prices to drop, cars reaching the second hand market and it's job done. At least it's now obvious that the futures is all electric, and resistance is futile.

Kona and Niro are essentially the same. But the main differences in UK spec. are more load volume in Niro but greater load weight in Kona. The Kona has a greater level of safety tech in the highest spec., than the only spec. of the Niro. Also, the Kona 2020 MY, appears to have an 11kW onboard charger, while the Niro still has the 7.2kW. But probably the biggest selling point, is the Kona’s great maximum potential range in all weathers. Real world range for summer - Kona 300+mi. Whereas the Niro might top 270mi. In winter you can knock 12% off those. And for sub 0°C, driving at night with snow and winter tyres, you could reduce those ranges by a further 12-15%. Out of the two. If range is the deciding factor, it’s the Hyundai Kona Electric. If you need the load volume it’s the Kia eNiro. If you have the money and want both, it’s the Tesla Model Y LR Plus. And if you’re on a tighter budget. With a similar range to the Niro and load volume of the Nissan Leaf, then it’s the Renault Zoe ZE.50 R110. The R135 has a bit more punch but you’ll have to pay for it. Either way, if you go for the Zoe, remember to specify the £750 CCS charger and you still get their 22kW AC charger.

I should get a Golf, I like a tight little box.

Is the quality of the paint used on the Tesla model 3 still as terrible as it was at the start?

Tesla owns Solar City. Why not develop a solar recharging panel on every EV? A car could theoretically travel 3,000 miles non-stop. What about a solar panel on the trailer for the Tesla semi truck tractor unit?

The Twingo Z.E, with grant in UK, would make it the true budget E.V. Why is it not coming to the UK?

Rory - great that you will be teaming up with Fully Charged. Robert - you mentioned the Leaf and the Zoe, but forgot the BMW i3! You smeghead!

The reason I ordered my Model 3 to change places with my 30kW Leaf is the Supercharger network... Charging and driving the Leaf is a gamble that sometimes goes terribly wrong. Have no problem with paying more to get the peace of mind that you not get stranded in a Tesla

We don’t get Skoda over here, that, along with the accent, @7:58 I thought you said “City Girl”😆 There I was, thinking: now that’s a proper name for a car👍

I like a tight box too.

did u try porsch electric

no mention of the Hyundai Ioniq?

You missed the Kia Soul EV, nicely trimed out better than the E-Niro and handles nice, you would like the size.

So the conclusion is to get Model 3 as it is overall the all!

About 2:38. "ehnn!... they're like a tight little box"... well. my.

[Hyon- day].... according to my Korean wife ;) ... although they have different pronunciation per country in ads

The mid range VW ID3 1st edition looks to be very near £40K (with no frills) - which is why I bowed out. The 77kwhr long range ID3 will likely be nearer £50k. We don't actually know price yet - but if it is around that level then this is hopelessly high priced. If VW are serious about affordable EVs they are going the wrong way (the Tesla way) about it (without Tesla wow factor). Also interesting (so I hear) that the long range big battery car is so heavy and the footprint so small that it can only be a 4 seater. That will just kill it as a serious family car proposition.

What is electric car designed in2020

Fun. But motorway driving being the worst thing .. that's out of date Rory. My Ioniq delivers the range it promises. If might affect some cars but it's not the blanket issue it was. Predictable range and good fast charging infrastructure make such a difference. That Milton Keynes parkway place is the future.

Love Bobbyllew

Don't forget the BMW i3 - still a great EV!

I had a friend worked for Hyundai 20 years ago in the factory and he said the correct way to pronounce Hyundai is....hYondye, that is the "h" very soft and the rest of the word very pronounced. Hope this makes sense ?

Exquisite most electric car

Rory made best decision to leave top gear as so much better than current team

I forgot to mention the Seat El Born. Does anyone else think it looks like a Tesla model 3. I've seen lots of interiors starting to look Tesla-esque and now it seems that they are showing the traditional car makers that fussy styling is not good on the outside either.

Did he say when talking about VW’s in America; that they were having to buy loads of BMW’s back? 3:01

What about Polestar 2?

What car is the Honder ?

What about the Tycan

Just waiting for the ID3 to get an OS. Apparently too many different manufacturers systems to deal with.

"Electron chundering" the new phrase post covid.... 👀🤣

Yo its the guy that top gear fecked up on him and Chris Reid were good together

As a regular Latin alphabet user who knows Hangul, you’re constantly aware how poor the accepted romanization alphabets actually are. “Dai” (die) is a Japanese syllable, which turns into “Dae” (day) in Korean. So, the car company’s name is 현대, which the ㅕ is something close to a Scandinavian ö. To us native English speakers, Hyundai most closely rhymes with Sunday.

About 13:40. Hoogggaaannn! I know nothink!"

Like in the good the bad and the ugly, when the ugly is getting a gun by making it out of parts of different guns. Since we need to have our 2 medium size dogs also on board. Our dream car would be the Kia Soul ev made from the material of the BMW i3 with the full width digital dashboard from the Honda E. Keep on dreaming, I know. Still nice video to watch.

I just realized that that's kryten oh man I've been watching fully charged for a little while now and I just realized it I feel like an idiot
