Road test review library

City Cars

Skoda Citigo eiV

As part of the Volkswagen Group’s city car triplets, did the little Citigo impress us as a low-cost EV?

Smart ForTwo EQ

Does the evergreen Smart car work as a small, inner city EV?

SUPERMINIS

Honda e

Honda’s take on stylish supermini dazzled us with design detail and tech. Watch our review here.

Renault Zoe R135

As one of the original EVs, the updated Zoe jumped back into the ring fighting.

MINI Electric

As British as tea & crumpets, we marvelled as MINI gave us the world’s first EV hot hatch.

Vauxhall Corsa e

The evergreen Corsa burst onto the scene under new PSA parentage with EV power. Does it make it a winner?

Peugeot e208

Does Peugeot deserve it’s crown as the maker of brilliant superminis with the e208?

Family Cars/Crossovers

BMW i3S

Is the i3 deserving of BMW’s Ultimate Driving Machine mantra, even after all these years? We put the sportier i3S through its paces to find out.

Kia Soul

Does the all-electric Soul still have enough funk?

Volkswagen I.D 3

The importance of the Volkswagen I.D 3 can’t be underestimated. Does the third generation people’s car hit the mark?

DS 3 Crossback E-Tense

DS Automobiles wants us to think of them differently to other manufacturers.
Marketing gone mad, or deserved?

MG ZS EV

Does the iconic octagon sit well on an electric SUV?

The previous generation of ‘00’ Peugeots seemed neither fish nor fowl, confused if they were supposed to be an MPV or SUV. The latest generations, thankfully, follow more conventional thinking, along with much improved styling.

Peugeot e2008 GT Line

Does it follow on from the brilliance of the smaller e208 supermini, or is it left floundering…

Hyundai Ioniq

As one of the leading manufacturers of EVs, does Hyundai’s Ioniq still stand comparison with newer entrants to the market?

Does the second generation Leaf make the same impact as its predecessor?

Citroen e-C4

Citroen have brought their very own je ne sais quoi into the fiercely competitive C-segment with their new C4.

Executive/Sports Saloons

Does the second stand alone model from Polestar deserve your attention? Watch our review here.

Tesla Model 3

Our roundup of all the electric stars of the 2019 Frankfurt Motor Show.

Thankyou for the many excellent EV reviews throughout the year. Best EV channel on YouTube. As someone still waiting for my first EV to be delivered (Audi Q4 due end of March) it’s been fascinating seeing the evolution of EV’s during 2021. Thanks again - I’ll continue to subscribe and watch all the videos.

Ian Ackery

I think you are the best car reviewer out there at the moment. Very informative, honest and take every car on its own merits. Keep up the brilliant work. 😀👍

Craig Smithson

And our award for the best EV channel for 2021 goes to…AutoEV. A great job guys and although he might only be 5’7” 5’8” this channel is definitely a sleeping giant and, for sure, one day soon it will get the viewing figures it deserves!

Runner Ball

Many thanks for the brilliant work! Watching a Scotsman chatter about EVs is a delicious antidote to planetary gloominess. And thank you for taking the time to respond to comments in a pleasant and intelligent way. That's what best defines this channel : a pleasant and intelligent tone.

Great channel. Keep up the good work in 2022. Picking up my EV6 on Thursday and so happy it got rated 1st. I watched your review of it a while ago and it helped make my mind up. Thx

Paul Devins

If you keep up this frequency of videos I might as well cancel Netflix and just stick with YouTube premium 👍
