Interest in electric cars in Australia has recently hit all-time highs thanks to record fuel prices in early 2022, and many manufacturers making the pledge to go electric-only sooner rather than later.
Until now, the electric future has seemed distant to many, but with these factors bringing many buyers next vehicle purchase into question, now seems as good a time as any to compare the latest and greatest fully electric offerings which have landed in Australia.
To that end we’ve convened these four electric vehicles (EVs) - the Polestar 2, Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6, and BMW iX - and we are putting them in an EV comparison to see if one of these newcomers might tick all the right boxes for those on the edge of considering an electric vehicle.
As you can probably tell just by looking at our options here, our four cars are different shapes, sizes, and price-points, which is why an outright winner is perhaps less important than what each of these cars brings to the party. What we’re here to find out is what each one might be like to live with, what they are like to charge, how far they will travel between charges in the real world, and where each of their strengths and weaknesses lie.
