Tesla Model 3.
An unidentified thing that passed rapidly, green flash so electric. Possibly a Mazda.

And a fail to charge Zoe.

I wonder what colour Jaguar call this. I think I would plump for a different one from the colour chart in the hypothetical event of ordering a Jaguar I-pace :-D

PS Ssangyong as of January this year were still in receivership, with Merger and Acquisition negotiations being pursed with Edison Motors but a reported deal imminent at the time.

My first spot of an EV with personalised plate today as well as a VW I've not seen before! :-D

That was the 2,000 reply on the thread Mick

This was the starter for 10 back in 2017 :-D Yes very nearly 5 Years ago :!: Keeping it simple and easy to join in with has worked so far :-D

So keep it simple....

What EV's have you spotted? And to add a bit of interest, have you had a chat with the owners see what their views are?

I think I am getting far more nosey as my interest grows, but most owners are more than willing to exchange pleasantries with you about their car :-D

So 50 points for me for an unusual spot today in Nissan Leafland, a Renault Zoe in white in Cramlington :!:

I did see a Kia Soul in Consett, but it's badge on the back was something like cdti or something similar, so I guess it wasn't an electric but it was a two tone which I do like.

Very probably a first time spot of one of these anonymous looking little white vans. Yes its a Renault ZE50 not sure if they still call them kangoo's

Yes they do, and the thing next to it looked slightly more saloon-ey than the usual e-tron but maybe that was just its juxtaposition with the boxy van in the same colour.

These are decent looking things, first generation range though, and at 18 reg that one isn't bargain basement. KIA SOUL EV...far better VFM on an older classic Leaf.

An Hyundai but didn't get the model. No green flash and forgot to check the reg.
Had an obvious cable port at the front.
Was green though.
Will probably be back, it picked up my next door neighbour this morning and just dropped hm off now.

And a Tesla S when I dropped my car off.

Most likely a Kona EV. It's the only Hyundai that has the charging port at the front. It's a small SUV-like car.
