First electric car choice

Original Poster

For a first car, electric, I'm torn between the Tesla Model 3 Long Range, T10 LR, Kia EV3 and Hyundai Ioniq 5; I'm not considering the Stellantis group. I'm waiting for comments with reasons from people actively driving EVs

I've driven a Tesla, a Togg, and an electric Peugeot. The Tesla belonged to a friend. The T10X was our car, we put 40,000 km on it, 30k of which was my own usage.

First off, it depends on what you're expecting, on what you want to drive right now: if you can get into its style, I'd say get a Tesla, but never the Juniper. Among them, the T10F seems like the most sensible to me because of the range. If you're into tech, go Tesla; if you want driving feel and mechanical feedback, you should lean toward Togg.

My idea is to start with an e-Tech and move to the next stage after that - I think I can comfortably use it for about a year, mostly around the city

If you're only going to use it in the city, I wouldn't say you absolutely have to get the LR, but in terms of resale value and if you also want to use it on long trips, the best option should be the LR version of whichever model.
