Who they are

A short write-up on each car, one paragraph apiece. We describe them on their own terms rather than picking a winner.

Profile · 64 kWh (SX2, 2023+)

Hyundai Kona Electric

Compact electric crossover, second generation. 514 km WLTP, 65.4 kWh. The DC charging peak at 102 kW is lower than at some competitors; a 10-80% charge therefore takes relatively long (manufacturer figure). Braked towing weight 750 kg.

Profile · KF, facelift (2024)

Mazda CX-5

Compact SUV with a Skyactiv-G petrol engine, KF generation with 2024 facelift. No hybrid or mild-hybrid drive in this version: WLTP consumption around 7.4 l/100km (manufacturer figure). 510 l boot, braked towing weight 1,800 kg. Indicative starting price; check the official configurator for the current figure.
