    The Tesla Cybercab should be styled to look like a unicorn. It probably has the magical ability to disappear when you want to order one just like the roadster (that was originally unveiled as a concept in 2017). I think there's something odd about massively powerful heavy SUVs, they may accelerate fast but can they stop like a supercar too?

    Our Ioniq 5 is just a shade over 2T, which isn't much heavier than a SUV of similar dimensions.

    Thank you for covering the show.
    The real story for me was the Tesla driverless taxi. What was astonishing was its suggested price at £23-25k. At that price if you live in a congested city why would you own a car at all and not just call one of these as needed? EVs in the city for an apartment owner are difficult because it may be hard to charge at home or have secure parking. When you do need to drive from Lands Ends to John O’Groats you can always hire something without the permanent cost of owning it. Maybe Tesla are on to something.

      There are some driverless tests being conducted in the UK, but I take the point that there is some way to go before approval. However if it can be made to work it looks very cost effective and fares should be very low, so worth a bit of persistence.

    Kia’s electric cars are too expensive in the U.K., leaving out essential items such as heat pumps unless you get top model or pay more. They need to come down in price- you can lease a Tesla Model Y for what you can lease an EV3! The EV3 is no value proposition compared to the excellent Scenic which is about a quarter less to lease a month, and comes with a heat pump.

    Why why why can we not have more cars that look like the Dodge Charger. I mean if Ford had made the Capri that looked similar it would have single handedly boosted the EV market instead of supplying naysayers with more spite and spittle .... and then taking a similar approach with the smaller MK 1 / 2 Escort would have lit their market share into orbit. All there seems to be are too many cars designed on a computer screen with busy bits on them just for the sake of it that will age really badly and will just fall off. I drive a Jaguar I Pace that admittedly has the range of an 80's Corgi Radio Control Rally Car ( Actual Comparison .... Capri and Metro ) and charges slower than a one legged sloth but at least it attempts to achieve clean lines with that of a coupe. I also think that the SUV EV is in itself at odds because of just how heavy they have to be and at 3 tonnes will rip up drives and age roads really badly. ..... My apologies for my rant but really folks .... face palm.
