Would the Zoe be your only car? Do you plan to do cross-country trips? If not, what would you consider other than a Tesla for long range trips (ignoring branding/marketing for a second)?
- TLightful 6y agoIdeally, yes. I live in London and 97% of my journeys would be there. An example, "normal" cross-country trip for me to, say, Bristol, is just over a 100 miles. Well within the Zoe's range. Anything crazy-further as a very one-off, and maybe I'd rent an ICE for the weekend. (edit: although someone just mentioned the 10%-80% charge time being just an hour ... fine by me!). As said, the Zoe would be on my radar if the competitors don't step up. But I've heard about quite a few alternative EV released in 2021. The Polestar 2 looks great. id.3 is fine. Hopefully Kia impress ... will be on the look out for others.
- raxxorrax 6y agoFamily of mine drove from northern Germany to Greece (don't know where exactly) in an E-Tron last year. It was a 2 day trip, but they said it was very chill. They could recharge in about 15 minutes (to 80%?), don't know the exact range between trips, but it was considerable. Would have taken 2 days with a conventional car as well, maybe just a little bit faster. Now, for business trips in rush hours it would probably be another story.
- pi-rat 6y agoEither go for a fast charging car, fastest Tesla moves 1000 km in 10h (incl charging), newest E-tron manages the same in 10h20m (Teslabjørn’s tests). Or go for something super efficient, like the Kias (Kona/Ioniq). Kona does 560 km on a single charge (64 kWh) in real life tests here in Norway.
