So looking to order an EV. Needs to be able to fit 2 jack russels in the boot, needs to be able to tow a light trailer (dirt bike) and needs to be nice and quick/fun.

So far the S looks best, followed by the iPace. X is getting a bit pricey, Merc looks a bit boring (had lots of mercs), Audi looks boring. Have I missed anything?

(and I've seen an S on YouTube with 2 golden labs in the boot so I assume my little things will fit!)

You'd probably get 2 Jack Russells in the glovebox of a Tessla smile

You could also get them into a Nissan Leaf.

If you can wait until next year, the Polestar 2 will be able to tow, and has a sizeable hatchback boot.

Just test drive the S with ludicrous mode. Sold.

Jesus it’s fast. Drive home in my V8 AMG feeling like I was on a horse having just seen the first car!

You will be getting the new version too if you order now. It's even better.

Yep - seems ludicrous mode is now standard on the performance model too. Can't wait!

The launch ability is bizarre - I've ridden fast bikes and the sense of acceleration is WAY more physical than that. Made myself feel ill - literally!!!

A fast bike will be what 3s to 60?

A feels faster because it is..

New raven cars have better suspension and more efficient, quite a machine
