WLTP is the official EU test cycle; real-world figures are usually a bit lower. See the guide on WLTP versus real-world consumption.

Who they are

A short write-up on each car, one paragraph apiece. We describe them on their own terms rather than picking a winner.

Profile · 64 kWh (SX2, 2023+)

Hyundai Kona Electric

Compact electric crossover, second generation. 514 km WLTP, 65.4 kWh. The DC charging peak at 102 kW is lower than at some competitors; a 10-80% charge therefore takes relatively long (manufacturer figure). Braked towing weight 750 kg.

Profile · FWD 71 kWh (XEAM10)

Toyota bZ4X

Electric SUV on a 71 kWh battery, around 460 km WLTP in the front-wheel-drive version. Strong point is the Toyota reliability reputation and the spacious boot; weak point is the low towing weight (750 kg braked) and a DC charging speed below that of direct competitors. Indicative starting price.
