Fiat 500e - is this Britain's best value EV convertible?
Fiat's 500e - the electrification of one of the world's best-loved cars. Can this modern battery-only version possibly be as charming and lovable as the original? I found out.

BMW’s iX40. Will you want this EV SUV?
มุมมอง 28K11 หลายเดือนก่อน
I drive BMW’s super clever electric SUV the iX40 to see how it measures up against its £70,000 price tag. As a competitor to the Jaguar iPace, Audi E-tron, Mercedes EQS and much cheaper Tesla Model Y, what do I think? Twitter QuentinWillson?s=20

UK to France in a Tesla 769 miles Can we do it?
มุมมอง 301K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Driving from the middle of England to Bordeaux in France in a day. A total of 769 miles in a Tesla Model 3. Using only Tesla Superchargers I show you what's involved and compare the costs and experience to doing the same journey in an ICE car. Is it better, worse, easy, difficult - or a total nightmare that I'd never, ever do again? Watch to find out! If you're planning to buy a Tesla because o...
500 miles & a battery factory
มุมมอง 11K2 ปีที่แล้ว
I drive five hundred miles in a day in a Tesla Model 3 to visit Britishvolt's planned battery factory giga site in Northumberland. I wanted to see what was happening up there and prove that you can do long distances in the UK in an EV (well a Tesla anyway). Surprised how fresh I felt at the end of a very long day.

How good is the Kia e-Niro?
มุมมอง 43K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Quentin Willson takes an electric Kia e-Niro on a 200-mile real-world errand (pre-lockdown). At £34,995 it's not exactly cheap but still one of the most affordable EVs in the UK. Is this the family-sized EV we’ve all been waiting for? Website. www.quentinwillson.co.uk Twitter. QuentinWillson

Does Tesla’s Model 3 Live Up To The Hype?
มุมมอง 45K4 ปีที่แล้ว
The Tesla Model 3 is supposed to be the mass market electric car that will change global perceptions of the practicalities and useful range of EVs. An important sub £50k Audi A4/BMW 3 Series chaser, Tesla’s future depends on the success of the Model 3. Can it blow away all those EV myths, uncertainties and anxieties about range? Watch this review to find out…
I.m a big fan
Please give me Gary
I finally got rid of my Model 3, and replaced it with a 2024 Ioniq 5 Limited AWD, just a few months ago. The Ioniq 5 is MUCH better! The only differences with my version on this side of the pond is it has a glove box (not a drawer) and the frunk is smaller, only enough to store my roadtrip charging paraphernalia. They've fixed the seat belt rattle in mine with padding on the back of the buckle. They've also remedied the lack of a rear window wiper with a digital rearview mirror -which I really love!
Its Much Better Looking than the TESLA id go for the Ioniq 5 N Model
Can you sit at 130kmh on the tolls or would this drastically affect range? I assume the maps would update to alternative superchargers?
*Smug Git - Now we are awaking that EV's are not the Answer to reduction of **_so called_** Global Warming - The Myth is Broken in 2024 AT LAST !*
*The MacMaster and Geoff Buys Cars will prove you wrong !*
There is a bonnet latch (2 actually), but not much to see there. It's useful to clear leaves from the A/C intake.
No one wants EVs!
Mac master is killing you on views 😂😂😂😂 evs are rubbish you should be embarrassed
Fantastic car. Fiat have engineered a premium product that actually feels like it deserves that price tag.
th-cam.com/video/lPYb52t_LZw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=riYhms94xOtQQ-XC
Very cute looking car.
Good and interesting review.
the Fiat 500e £28k to £14k in 1 year after 1000 miles driven.... however the Arbath 595 1.4 T-JET £24k to £18k in 1 year and 5000 miles. At 40mpg the petrol for the 595 will cost £700. charging the electric will cost £220 at home or £500 at a motorway facility. The 500e is great if you want to get rid of money
How much have the electric car lobby paid you to speak positively about their scam vehicles.
not all of us want milk floats pal . and he in not a nut job
You are an absolute nut job.
From my own personal experience of having to live with an Ev Transit van. I wouldn't touch an EV.
Fiats 😂🤣and then a Fiat EV 😂🤣😂🤣🤮
£30,000 for a car!! I'd want to live in it for that! (only use for that battery too).
Quentin you agenda pushing pansy, what you got your mankini in a twist for about the MacMaster 🤣
34k for a f#£%ng fiat!???
Paid for with?
I'm amazed he doesn't think electric cars are just as lifeless as Lada's if not more so.
I've only seen this advertised in two colors: pink (sorry rose gold) and luckily there is red, but its from project RED which is for HIV research, so I don't know how a str8 male could survive the ribbing driving the gheyest car of the century lol!
Ive Been Hearing About Masdar City Since 2013 When They Did The Bloomberg Special On It. And In 11 Years I Can Truly Say I've Seen No Major Difference Nor Progress. Its Seem As If There Still In the Same Phase As They Were I 2013😆.I Think Its Time To Admit This Project Didn't Meet There Goal. Its Still Impressive & Innovated. But Its Also Was Kind Of A Flop SMH
Nice.
It needs to come down in price. $42,000.00 Canadian all taxes in is too much for a sub compact.
Since we love your content, we would love to work with you. Please send us your email.
Contact quentin@faircharge.co.uk Glad you like it. 😎
I think you are missing the mark on range . All reviews state the range is very impressive . Did you take this on a long trip and test the range ?
This has just popped up on my feed so.... Yes, I recognise some of those Superchargers. Two years ago (when your video came out) the wife and I did a trip to see an old school friend of the wife's who lives in Castillion et Castets (south east of Bordeaux). Easy peasy. Last year we drove down to Sicily. Not in one day as we want to see some places on the way. But also easy peasy. And the (Bip&Go) Tag covered me for the ferry crossing at Messina. (Edit: We live just south of Edinburgh so took the ferry to IJmuiden both times)
This guy is unbelievable! A WEF member?
What an embarrassment to drive!
Enjoyed that. About the same time, we drove the the Alps in a standard range MG ZS, it was fine too, a bit more planning but it was fine. Just purchased a model Y, really looking forward to not planning our next trip to the Alps and just hitting the navigate to button.
You'll have a great trip. Lots of chargers. No range anxiety. Good luck.
Ewwwww what a sleeze. He’s always been one but now he’s a grandad sleeze
Give it 5 years and it will be landfill. Or burnt out. Or both.
I can smell it depreciating from here. Don't buy one
How much was the back hander they gave you?
Zero. Be very careful what you post in public. I have no association with Tesla. They won't be impressed by your serious allegation either.
That's crazy
Sod mainstream TV this is REAL drama. Is it possible to do 769 miles in a Tesla without bursting into flames?
This is problem with electric cars the range is mediocre. Also with the BMW why would you not give extra storage space in where engine would be.
We all know they are pure junk !! We all know you are lieing @
It might be half a ton heavier but it's infinitely safer as well, lower center of gravity from the battery means less chance of rollovers (25% of fatalities) no engine up front to end up in your lap (frontal fatalities 40%) and even side crashes are lessened with the battery reinforcing side structure. If you're buying this car you're probably well off enough to care about living longer so you should account for that in any review. Oh and it's Vegemite mate. ;)
Can anyone advise please...... TESLA Hmmmmmm!!!!! I took ownership of a brand new AWD Model Y on the 23rd of January 2024, and in a little over 2 weeks I have done 760 miles. I don't have a charger at home so I charge at Tesla superchargers at 40p a KW. I go before I start work at 5am when it is the cheapest rate. I did do just over 100 miles of charge at the local shell garge which cost me £26.81 the other 4 superchargers cost me a total of £80.40 thats a whopping £107.21 in 17 days. Does anyone think this is correct or do they think I have an issue with my battery. To be honest the first few day I did put my foot down and have the heating on, some mornng I don't have the heating on at all. I have a 2013 BMW M Sport Diesel and costs me just over £80 to fill it and I would get around 600 miles to a tank of diesel. I regret getting a Tesla now.....
You need a charge box at home on a night time tariff like Octopus at 7.5p per kWh. On public chargers you’re paying top rates and also 20% VAT whereas on domestic rates at home it’s 5%. If you live in a flat or terraced house there are ways to get your own charger supply. Most EV owners charge at home at night. There’s nothing wrong with your battery - it’s just the price of electricity from public chargers that’s the problem. Good luck.
Thank you for taking the time to reply mate.@@quentinwillson8918

Finger in throat reviewer. No mention that there is no space for your left foot so don't try any long journies in this milk float. £32,000 for a 2 seater in which he praises with grear aplomb and then criticises it for having cheap plastics and he is so into cars he couldn't find the volume control. From most reviews I have read on the Fiat 500e you would be lucky to get 150 miles out of a full charge. They are a nice little town car but no more than that but a very expensive shopping trolley.
а а та гиа ту будабе
what a ridiculously shaped steering wheel. another morbidly obese ev. Far from saving the planet they will destroy it. using valuable lithium and cobalt resources. heavier car means more road damage, faster tyre wear and more rubber particles being shed and flushed in to the water course. bloody evs - pushed by brainless politicians.
