This week on the Kilowatt Half Hour, Ginny and Nic are back with tales from behind the wheel, fresh EV news, and another packed mailbag.

We’ve been driving some of the hottest new electric cars around, including the Alpine A290, Renault 4, Polestar 3 and the eye-catching Renault 4 Plein Sud. We also chat about the world’s biggest real-world EV range test and reveal which manufacturers exceeded expectations when the batteries met reality.

Elsewhere, Kia opens the order books for its seven-seat PV5, Peugeot gives us our first look at the new E-208 GTi, and we round up the latest videos landing on the Electrifying YouTube channel.

In Bargain of the Week, we uncover a tempting Volkswagen ID.7 Tourer lease deal and a nearly-new XPENG G6 that’s already shed £10,000 from its list price.

Our Electric Virgin of the Week features Hollywood star Jason Momoa and his electrified Land Rover project, while listener Roy gets in touch with a practical question about home charging cables and whether they need to be fully unwound before use.

Plus, your comments on hidden charging gems, cup holders, the controversial Ferrari “Luce”, and why dealership experiences can vary wildly depending on where you shop.
