Driving Range
In short, how many miles you can travel on a full charge. Is length important? Let’s not open that can of worms…
Efficiency
How many kWh of charge are needed to travel a set distance. The fewer needed, the more efficient your EV is. Easy!
Battery
The bigger the battery, the more power it can hold. In essence, fewer stops needed to top up your charge. Ahh, simplicity!
Top Speed
The maximum speed you can reach with your foot pressed hard to the floor. Important when escaping a zombie apocalypse, we assume.
Seats
Well, you don’t want to have to leave anybody at home… or do you?
Body
From stylish SUVs and compact crossovers, to curvaceous coupes and handy hatchbacks, there’s a perfect shape for everyone!
Isofix
The safe way to attach a child seat. Typically, these are hidden in the join between the back seats, alongside the crumbs from your last meal deal.
Safety Rating
A measure that considers the amount of safety kit installed, how a vehicle performs in crash testing and how safe it is for both pedestrians and cyclists.

The BMW i7 carries a price tag similar to the Mercedes EQS, positioning it in the luxury segment. Moreover, to enjoy some of its most captivating features – such as the plush rear lounge seats, the Theatre Screen, and the immersive surround-sound system – you’d have to pay extra.
For corporate users, the i7 emerges as a more economical option compared to petrol, diesel, or plug-in hybrids. This is due to the current low benefit-in-kind tax rate of 2% on fully electric vehicles. While large saloons generally experience rapid depreciation, the i7’s value may diminish more swiftly than a Range Rover’s.
