Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
On Top Gear, Porsche Taycan Turbo S (Yes, the Turbo S bit was discussed). Not exactly slow (either to 120MP/H or to charge when hit with a 275KW/H charger).

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
Todays charging companion, not the 100% BEV the KIA e-Niro but
The KIA Niro Eco Plug-in. Yes a hybrid. Here is the KIA league table of electricness.
You will see that the Self-Charging Hybrid, and the Mild Hybrid have an "all electric" range of precisely Zero

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
Nice work Mick, the KIA e-Soul, maybe it’s debut on the spotting thread.
Edit quick check in the archives and it appears 3 forum heavyweights have declared sightings, mandrake, Richard W, and Zelandeth....but..photographs trump all of that of course
Regards Neil

A first for me a Hyundai Ionic electric, followed it for a couple of miles.

Just wait until Hyundai are tempted to set up their first factory in the UK to beef up the EV revolution, they will be all over the place

Another Hyundai Ionic on Coleford yesterday, must be catching on.

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
Did the Ioniq have the fully blanked off grill ?
If not it was either a hybrid or ICE. I see far more Ioniq hybrids than I do the BEV version with the blanked off grill.

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
I only saw the rear of it which had a badge saying 'Electric.'

Not a regular spot, but another one from the Hyundai 100% Electric Stable,
"HYUNDAI KONA PREMIUM SE EV AUTO 2019" as autotrader vehicle check described it.
