If you are looking for a family electric car, which one should you choose? There are many body options to consider and the decision cannot be taken lightly, so we decided to compare several models in our Electrical Awards 2022.
Right from the start, we narrowed down the choices, taking into account variables such as price and practicality, although some models are virtually identical. Thus we are left with Polar Star 2, ionic 5, Skoda Enyak iV, Tesla Model Y and Ford Mustang Mach-E GT.
We’ll start with the first two on the list, which have a lot of positives, but also some aspects that need to be improved as a family car. For example, the Polestar is a good car in many ways, but its interior space can feel a bit cramped if there are multiple people traveling in it.
But what about Hyundai? Its design is one of its main assets both outside and inside, where there is also enough space for four adults. However, they trunk capacity it is not overly large, which detracts from the practicality expected of a family member.
We reduce the choice to three models
This leaves us with the remaining three cars. The first one we mention is the Ford Mustang Mach-E GT which stands out with some amazing 487 HP which allow you to accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h in just 3.7 seconds. But that’s not all, because if you choose a version with a more powerful engine and battery, it can offer a range of about 600 km.
On top of that, it’s an interesting car, it drives very well and has a driver-oriented interior. However, the rear seats and trunk could be larger, especially in a car that part 81 541 Euro in Spain.
However, overall it’s a great option and that’s why we chose it as our “Best Electric Crossover”. Also, Ford solved this cargo capacity problem somewhat by adding a small trunk in the front, which is quite useful.
Of course, the Tesla Model Y has this quality too, and the front trunk is bigger. In addition, it has a big plus point of the Tesla supercharger network, which is a big advantage for an electric vehicle and helped us to award it as the best. “The best electric car without the hassle” this year.
However, this is a peculiar model, as it seems to have more volume in the roof where it is not really needed, above the front seats.
However, there is a reason for this: front seats are higher than at the rear, allowing passengers to stretch their legs under the driver’s and passenger’s seats. Pretty smart, right?
Added to this is the large trunk volume that the Skoda Enyaq iV also boasts and which is really important for a family car. Here we do not find a second front trunk, yes, but this is not a big problem.
Overall, this is a practical car that drives well and is the best value electric car in this group. part 47800 euros in Spain. This is what earned him another Electric Awards 2022.
So if you’re looking for an electric car to use as a family car, there are three clear options. What to choose? It depends on your tastes and preferences, but none of them will disappoint you.
