I'm keen on EVs, but at that price point and with those needs I'd still be going ICE at this point.
The Corsa E would be a good shout but in my experience it doesn't get close to 200 miles of range on quicker roads, I ran one for a couple of months and even in warm weather it was 160-180 miles in that use. Keep the speed down to 55-60 and I think it would get there, but not at 70.
Yeah from what I could find on the Corsa they won't do the range ...they are quite cheap deals tho (for a new car)The Corsa E would be a good shout but in my experience it doesn't get close to 200 miles of range on quicker roads, I ran one for a couple of months and even in warm weather it was 160-180 miles in that use.

i3 is a brilliantly designed vehicle and with the Rex it is almost ideal.
I think "almost" is the key word here ...from what I have read (and some comments on here) the earlier i3 (with less battery range) can't do the motorway miles needed without a fuel stopLexus (2 options) or an Ampera (with brave pill) seems to be the route they could go
