One of the guys rolled up in an electric Kia, can't even recall what model (and does it matter?). Turned out it was on rental; provided by his work as he was travelling some distance daily to a project for a few weeks and wasn't prepared to use one of his own tasty cars to do the journey.

Anyway, the point is, he said he was mightily impressed by it. This is someone who has a Porsche among others, used to run a D2 A8 4.2, whose father had a D2 S8 and now has a D4, etc. etc.

PS He reckons the D2 was the best car he's ever had.

Kia , along with Renault, currently make the best EVs, in my opinion: I'd take an EV from them ahead of any of the German manufacturers current products, any day.
