Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Electric car anyone?

Hi Gravic
There's at least one person here with an ID3. I'll try and find who. :-) G

I have an ID3, I like it, easy to drive but limited to around 200 miles when fully charged, maybe ID4 would have a greater range.

Yeah, a 58kWh and a 77kWh battery. A 58 would only do about 210 miles, a 77 should do 300? :-) G

Very confusing model names - either the Pro S or possibly the Tour is the 77kWh :-) G

We bought an ID4 first edition just after they came to market, then got an ID3 later the same year (2021)

Both have been great to drive. Had to fix two punctures on the ID3, screw/nail each time but repairable.

There are very active Facebook forums for both, particularly the ID3 where I sometimes go to find out how to sort something (wife left credit card on the centre console last week and it slid into a gap that would have left me scratching my head about how to fish it out…solved in five mins thanks to previous post)

For the purposes you mention I would favour the ID3 by the way

Our time has come to start thinking about the next EV via motability. Prices have gone up a bit but I'd not want to go lower than the 50kWh battery in the existing e208.

At the moment the runners and riders are:-
- e2008 or e208
- Hyundai Kona 64kWh
- MG4
- Zoe
- Vauxhall Mokka

Want to keep the up front cost below £2k so there are some nicer options priced out.
