My next door neighbour has a new Hyundai Kona electric. I drove it the other day and was actually impressed. It's surprisingly quick, agile, quiet, and comfortable. It has a 258 mile range and gets numerous glowing reviews. Maybe you could test drive one.

Agreed. But, some colours look better than others.

agree

loved the modern, upscale interior and it will break the front tires loose at 30 mph with wicked torque steer.

hated the front end styling and the wheels and they wanted $12k down + $400/ month on a 3 year lease which is much more than even the tesla model 3!

i still enjoyed driving it
