A £60,000 BMW 330e, some properly good Peak District roads, and one EV driver who admits plug-in hybrids make him “itch a little bit”.
- We put BMW’s 330e plug-in hybrid under the microscope: superb steering, impressive EV running and plenty of performance, but does carrying two powertrains actually make financial sense?
- Used EV bargains, battery degradation and why a six-year-old Kia Soul EV with 27,000 miles might make a surprisingly strong case for simply keeping your car.
- Plus tyre choices, adaptive cruise control, questionable dashboard trim, following distances and Ashley’s driving being subjected to Simon’s passenger-seat assessment.
