Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo (2021) review: don't call it an estate | CAR Magazine
A review of the Porsche Taycan #EV estate https://www.carmagazine.co.uk/car-reviews/porsche/taycan-cross-turismo/
And the answer is-yes probably we might choose the Kia EV6 over a Model 3
Its fast ,efficient, spacious, quick to charge, great looking & provide 3 pin power
Downside
Less colour options on higher spec models🙄
The charging flap looks a little exposed
No superchargers
NEWS: The Kia EV6 has gone on sale, would you take it over a Tesla Model 3? >> https://aex.ae/3w9BdxR
Top 10 Best Family Electric Cars
Pretty good list but oddly includes an overpriced Volvo XC40 but forgets a Model 3 starting at just over 40k
We would swerve on the Leaf as lack of thermal management means its the only EV limited to 1 rapid charge a day https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/best-cars/top-10-best-family-electric-cars
While list prices on EV remain stubbornly higher than piston models, lease deals are increasingly good value & closing the gap including this Corsa e which should come with 100kW charging . ID.3 also worth checking
Just signed off an amazing offer on Corsa E SE Nav - Full Electric vehicle for only £299 Deposit and £209 per Month, includes a home charging point.... This is better value than a petrol !

Had a bonkers idea I’m trying today. For the people that say they’d have got an EV but its not for them as they do long drives for family holidays or travel for work
I’m going to test out some of those as #EVDayTrips to show what its really like
